In an effort to further typecast myself on this blog, I have a couple of hip-hop items to report.

First, The Core DJs Retreat will be in St. Louis August 25-28. Based at the Adams Mark Hotel, the event is expected to attract some of the hottest DJs from around the country for a long weekend of networking, music showcases and parties. Local members of The Core DJs include DJ Sir Thurl, J-Nicks, D-Rocc, The Infamous Que, DJ AJ and Kool Kaos. Props to my derrty Chris Thomas for dropping me the link about the retreat.

Second, the video for "In Ya Face" by local artist Ebony Eyez is out. It features shots of the Eads Bridge, the Arch and (I think) City Museum. Best lyric: "Can't spell 'hustler' without the 'S-T-L'"

How can a hip-hop city like St. Louis have only one hip-hop radio station? It boggles the mind.
