This is the final record of the group as Phife died in 2016 from complications with diabetes. Q-Tip has been on so many other artists albums - from #thebeastieboys , #chemicalbrothers #deeelite and so many more. This is such an amazing and brilliant record, with the hierarchy of Hip Hop with Kendrick, Anderson, Busta and Andre 3000 combine that with Elton John and Jack White with Samples from Willie Wonka and The Chocolate Factory , Black Sabbath and Gentle Giant to name a few - This is seriously one of the finest Hip Hop records ever made Enjoy (at Hollywood Hills) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYz4kl1voom/?utm_medium=tumblr

Impulse buy: one ticket to see #caseybenjamin (aka Stutz McGee) of Heavy, Robert Glasper Experiment, @vurnt22 , and Stefon Harris among many more. Dude is one of the few who can wield a keytar and not look foolish and he hooks in a mean alto horn. Between the various originals were some expected covers (e.g. Herbie Hancock's "Butterfly" , a personal fave) and some unexpected ones ("Johnny and Mary" by Robert Palmer). The Black Cat is a nice venue in the 'loin. Also, did a little in-the-dark #masticateandillustrate / #drinkanddraw ...it's rough but ya know....

The Pace Report: "Sonic Vibes" The Stefon Harris Interview
Welcome to another edition of The Pace Report featuring vibraphonist Stefon Harris and Blackout live at the Yamaha Artist Services for this year's 2018 APAP Winter Conference festivities. Karen Kennedy of 27 Seven Artist Development organized this meet and greet with music fans, industry reps, and journalists to hear the new music from Stefon's new record "Sonic Creed" to be released on Motema Music later this fall.
Stefon has been on the frontlines backing his group Blackout which came off their Grammy-nominated recording "Urbanus." The Albany, New York native is now the Associate Dean and Director of Jazz Arts at the Manhattan School of Music.
Over the years he's backed and toured with the likes of Joe Henderson, Buster Williams, and Wynton Marsalis.
