D’Rica7 BDay wk2 - ROY AYERS @SRB BK, Toca Tues@SUTRA, DJ Questlove&Yameen @BK Bowl

This is my Bday week report 2.
It was my dear friend's new venue grand opening night on March 3rd. I knew they were having Roy Ayers for this night so I asked if I can have my Bday celebration together at SRB Brooklyn.http://srbbrooklyn.com/web/ 

👉👉👉https://youtu.be/ODDqyw0KQ80 Please take a look of” Roy Ayers Bday message”  for me! 


As the owner's policy we were not allowed to advertise at all so I couldn't invite guests as many as I wanted but very importantly, my long term legend friend Roy Ayers and his band members who have been like my family were there for me so as the owner, Doc, Manny and Beast! Oh man, it was such a special night for me. I really didnt expect Roy Ayers to ask me to come up to the stage and sang Birthday song for me!!! OMG.... Wow it was soooooooooo special night for me! I was overwhelmed and couldnt believe what has just happened. Roy Ayers, this legendary ROY AYERS sang Birthday song for ME on the Stage!!!
And he also gave me a video private message for my Birthday. Wooooooooooooooow.... What can I say? 
To think about it, I met Roy Ayers the first time when I still lived in London which is more than 13years ago or so... I met him thru Dennis Davis who used to be a Drummer for Roy. Time flies so fast!!! Wow... Ray Gaskins... John, Mark,Lee,...and more... Thank you soooo much for this beautiful long term friendship!love you guys!!!
After the show, Doc, Manny prepared Birthday cake for me... I knew Big Jeff bought cake for me too. Wow it was such a beautiful night!!! Thanks for the people who came to see me, DJ PEACE, my brother, you are awesome!!! And the girls... Thank you so much for this night! 

Then after SRB, I went to local clubs to dance with a few hours more to hear some more Funk/Soul and Old School hiphop. Wow I got hyper on this day. Thanks for Jermaine to be there with me!

On my actual Birthday March 4th was quiet and relaxing. I got so many calls from unbelievable legends, video messages, facebook messages, songs sang by amazing cats... and great presents. I can not name all of the people here but I am so blessed to have you in my life and love you guys soooo much!!! Thank you again...!!! <3 <3 <3
On March 5th, my best gal in BK Mariko and her Aomori friend, Emmy-chan took me to a Bday dinner near my house. oh man... since this day, our party nights started again.
On March 6th, at Sutra the special guest was DJ Amanda Diva. Mariko and her Aomori friends came thru Sutra, there of course Big Jeff, Voodoo Ray, our princess DJ JUNE-chan, DJ Tony Touch, Pesu-kun and his GF, Ariel the owner, Toca crew, DJ Butta L, then my great friend, JAROBI from A Tribe Called Quest, Nas from ZULU Nations, Legendary KOOL HARC came thru!
Kool Herc, DJ Kool Herc and Kool DJ Herc, is a Jamaican-born DJ who is credited with originating hip hop music, in The Bronx, New York City. His playing of hard funk records of the sort typified by James Brown was an alternative both to the violent gang culture of the Bronx and to the nascent popularity of disco in the 1970s. In response to the reactions of his dancers, Campbell began to isolate the instrumental portion of the record which emphasized the drum beat—the "break"—and switch from one break to another to yet another.
Using the same two turntable set-up of disco DJs, Campbell's style led to the use of two copies of the same record to elongate the break. This breakbeat DJing, using hard funk, rock, and records with Latin percussion, formed the basis of hip hop music. Campbell's announcements and exhortations to dancers helped lead to the syncopated, rhymed spoken accompaniment now known as rapping. He called his dancers "break-boys" and "break-girls", or simply b-boys and b-girls. Campbell's DJ style was quickly taken up by figures such as Afrika Bambaataa and Grandmaster Flash. Unlike them, he never made the move into commercially recorded hip hop in its earliest years.
Tony Touch shout out for Happy Birthday with my name and we danced crazy there!!! Another wonderful night. There were some accidents with my girls and boys... but it was what it was. All good with great people. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DJ_Kool_Herc
On March 8th at Brooklyn Bowl with DJ Questlove and MC Yameen Allworld. That day was with Soulive before DJ Questlove. I wish I knew. I supposed to meet DJ Logic there but I just missed seeing him as I got there late. But Mariko and her friend Eri chan were there and met my good friends- Igmar Thomas and Sharief Hobley. Igmar was playing with Soulive and stayed afterwards. Then Sharief was just hanging as usual... ;-)
 I met Sharief in Japan the first time while he was still playing with John Legend which is like... hmmm... 6,7 years ago??? wow... 
My Dear Philly MC Yameen shouted for my Birthday also thru the whole night along with DJ Questlove's funky beats and songs and made my Bday week very special also. I love you guys, so much! Thank you so much.

D’Rica7 s BDay wk1-R.Glasper album release & ATCQ tribute in Harlem


My crazy xxth Birthday passed finally this year and I had amazing days with amazing people.
First, my JP girls got together for Indian dinner party and Karaoke night! Mariko, Shino, Kimitea, Kaori... thank you and love you so much!
On Feb 28th was our Robert Glasper's <Black Radio> release party at Highline ballroom with Yasiin Bay (AKA Mos Def), Lala Hathaway, Bilal, and more. (sold out show!!!)
Robert and his manager tried to get tix or pass somehow and they informed me that there would be an additional party the very next day. Of course I did get in for that with my girls and was sooooooooooo happy to hear who would perform for this day...!!! It was Lupe Fiasco, Ledisi, and my fav lady Meshell N'degeochello!!! and surely RG's singer, Bilal too! I was soooooo excited to hear these names!!! And the opening for this day was DJ Spinna, my friend!!! more and more excited!!!lol 
On 28th DJ Questlove and MC Yameen Allworld opened the party and I heard it was all sold out, packed and hot night. 
Our 29th DJ Spinna started from 7pm till 9;30pm... I knew RG, Bilal and Lupe were recording David Letterman Late show for the same night broadcasted. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=FIXKbUCC-bU
They actually came late for the show @highline ballroom, already Ledisi, Bilal, MeShell were hanging with their people in VIP section. Also, of course MeShell's long term musician, Mark Kelly (The Roots crew Bass player now) showed up too!!! He didnt play for this show but it's always nice seeing him!!! (Mark stop glab my back meat tho...!!!lol)
After the show, I heard there was no sound check as RG, Bilal and Lupe were late coz of the shooting for David Letterman's Late show. But it all came out great and organic, jamming and fun, funky and soulful by the end. I looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooved it so much! 
About the details, you can read this website. This tells you a lot what was going on.
After the gig, Me, Mariko and Wataru met some of my music friends, like Soshi, and Kayo, and the people who got press passes like Shino, Dashaun, and Rico. DJ Spinna was buying RG's T-Shirt that was $25! I didnt know that he actually buying T-Shirt like others!!! Wow... it was interesting to see him buying it actually...lol Shino and Dashaun were there for both nights, they said second night was better, but DJ Spinna said first night was better. I am sure I would say 2nd day as my real favorite singers and musicians were there for 2nd day plus I felt they were enjoying jam a lot ;-)
Right after this second night, RG experiment left for the US tour. I didnt get to see band members after their gig but its all good that I had amazing night on this day.
Also Check this site out that I helped set up for this site  bmr Japan for Robert Glasper interview. AMAZING AMAZING interview!!! http://bmr.jp/feature/detail/0000000150/
I actually got a lot hits and reputations for this article from artists, musicians, fans and the people who did not know about RG! Hey, this was honest interview and I really liked what he said!
Also RG experiment and LEDISI were on Tonight show with Jay Leno on March 19th. This is the link that you can see them perform. They were performing by the end as special guests! http://www.nbc.com/the-tonight-show/video/Monday-March-19-2012/1391559

 Rodney Kendrick was sitting there... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodney_Kendrick

Rodney Kendrick (born April 30, 1960) is an American jazz pianist, bandleader, composer, and producer. He has been described as a "hard swinging player and composer with a delightful Monkish wit and drive.. The time Rodney was eighteen, he had already turned professional, touring and playing keyboards with R&B and funk acts, traveled the world with Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes, James Brown and George Clinton. At twenty-one, he delved more deeply into jazz, moving to New York in 1981, began a career where he worked steadily, supporting Freddie Hubbard, Terence Blanchard, Stanley Turrentine, Clark Terry, J. J. Johnson, and others. He studied with pianist Barry Harris, who remained his teacher and mentor for over 20 years. Kendrick cites Randy Weston and Sun Ra as influences. In the early 1990s he served as Abbey Lincoln’s musical leader for seven years.
I had not seen him for a while, so it was very nice seeing him and his people!;-) When the rain stopped, it was already 1am and left Cleo's took a subway alone and went home..awww...BK is too far to go home from Harlem alone...>< !!!

P-Funk&George Clinton @ BBking NYC 2012

Another George Clinton and PFunk show on Feb 8th 2012. I came back to NY from Japan to see this show for sure...
My Fav Band in the world, George Clinton and PFunk was at BB King NYC.
I was very much ready to go see my PFunk Family. And it was actually first time for me to see Garrett Shider to perform on the stage!
First, as soon as I got the venue, I met Tracey Lewis Clinton who is a son of George Clinton. He said he has just had a grandchild a few hours ago!!!He was sooooooooooo happy by the bar. 
That was a great beginning of the night. Then I met Paul Hill (Back vocal) from Pfunk, he took me to backstage and there I saw my real good friend JEROME (-Keyboard)!!! I didnt know that he was on tour with them this time... It was sooooo good to see him again there!I kinda worry about him in so many different reasons but always nice to see him!!!
I took my co-worker and greeted some people in back stage. My family, LAW, Garrett were there by the stage also P-Nut, PooPooman who was busy taking pictures with his Champoopoo, aslo Sir Nose, Clip, Richie, Rico and more. OF course Kyoko-san!!! its always nice to be with you! And dear friend Jeff, and Trutru, and Anthony from West side! ;-)
We went to Garrett side of the stage once the show started and danced, sang, screamed crazy out there!!! For my girl, it was first time to see PFunk show and she really had a great time!
OK, my time was almost there...Atomic Dog... I gotta be on the stage! This is my moment...
Tic tac tic tac... yes, they started Atomic Dog!! then...ran to the gate to get on the stage...
The BBK security guy stopped me just only because I didnt have the pass to get inside. The members and staffs knew that I was waiting for this moment and told this security ass to let me get inside but this security damn ass didnt know anything about Pfunk show and me, didnt let me get inside...>< YOoooooo! I was at backstage just before and this ass saw me there with members  too!!! some other girls were very much complained a lot too! Of course this damn ass had no idea about what <ATOMIC DOG> is like and ruined my night...!!!Awwwwwww.....
But after the show, some members and staffs explained about me and the song concept, the security guy apologized me after the show... so its all good by the end.
Anyway, the show was great, it was a bit different from normal shows that I have seen. George's family love was everywhere...his son, his grand daughter and grandson were performing with too.
Garrett did solo show with <one nation under the groove> that was crazy and great!
After the show we went to the back stage again and talked to some more band members, took pics and complained what happened with Atomic Dog...!
Sir Nose was asking me why I didnt come on the stage, although he saw me in the audience...I told him about this damn ass. He said <it wont happen again to you any more. Make sure you come to the next show and will be on the stage!>
Kim(back Vocal) was pretty on the stage as always. And Jerome introduced me to Miss Lady Kier who is a lead vocal from DeeLite
 Deee-Lite was an American house and club/dance group, formed in New York City, United States. The group's best-known single was "Groove Is in the Heart", from their 1990 debut album, World Clique. However, Deee-Lite achieved longer lasting success on the U.S. Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart, where they scored six number-one hits.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deee-Lite

Do you remember the big hit song of them? The Japanese guy is a producer for this and still I hear this song everywhere in the world!!! This is amazing!

First NAMM in LA 2012 with George Clinton&PFunk and Bootsy Collins

To be honest, I didn't know anything about NAMM in LA which was held 01-20,21,22-2012. I just visited LA for 2 days on the way back to Japan and planned to stay with my friends there. Then heard about NAMM.
It was cool to be there actually, I could meet so many people whom normally I didn't get to see.
Nickey, the Quaze's home girl came to pick me up at the airport and we were hanging at the recording studio where Quaze's cousin Joseph owns. I have visited there before so it was nice seeing them there. Quaze is the PFunk member and producer for the soundtrack < Undercova Brother> with Bootsy Collins and Snoop Dog.
We went to NAMM the next day and we got there too late for us to get in the inside but you know whom we ran into??? 
The venue for NAMM is huge and there are so many people came out to hang and network with. It is at Convention center in Anaheim and we parked the car at Disneyland parking lot.
Me, Nickey and Quaze were walking around to find a spot to get inside. 
Then we found Tracey Lewis and Sonny Cool walking outside of the venue. Tracey is a son of George Clinton and Sonny Cool is the manager/promoter and best friend of Bootsy Collins and George Clinton!!!
I missed the Bootsy Collins show the day before I go there and George was there hanging too but George left for Vegas early on the day I visited NAMM...Bootsy was still hanging with his wife tho!
I was glad that I caught up with some PFunk members. Michael Hampton from PFunk was there calling me to say HI too!Also, Allan Bernard who is a Tech for Bootsy Collins. He just left LA before I got there...>< I should have known about the Bootsy show earlier!!! TM Stevens and Blackbyrd were there too!!! I missed seeing them...I heard Stevie Wonder, Faith Evans and Earth Wind and Fire members were there too! So as many other musicians. Damn... I missed all...
But its all good. I met the drummer, Michael Crevier finally after chatting so many times on FB!
Also We met one of the PFunk members that became before P-Funk, whose name is Mike Fortune. It was at the hotel lobby where everyone was networking along with live music.He was super cool.
We visited Sonny Cool's hotel room, there many people gathered and great net working was going on.
It was first time to see and chat with him, he was super cool! He had his singer girl-Melissa who got a big tits and hanging out saying .... I wanna pop out!!!lol
Anyways, he kept telling me that he wants to work with me to do anything. Lets see what we can do then!!!;-)
The next door was Chazz's room and Rock'n Roll people visited us a lot. Chazz is a singer and a son of very famous Rock Drummer!!! Also Krigger who is a drummer for Ike and Tina Turner and his band, and the comedian and funky lady.Also so many Rock musicians and soul musicians visited the room. Well I needed to leave early morning for Japan so we left early there and dont know what happened after... but I wish I can visit there more days next time and wanna experience LA more!!!

The Roots holiday party~Mint Condition~Jimmy Fallon~Ray Angry,Craig Haynes etc.

Hey Happy New Year of 2012~~!!!
It has been so long for me not to write the blog somehow... I had so many events before Xmas and did not have any time to write...

First of all, Dec 15th @BK Bowl...The Roots Holiday Party! What a fantastic night! THE ROOTS KILLED IT!!! Yameen put me on the list and I had a very special night! Thank you Yameen Allworld!!!
The Roots crew, Rahzel,Robert Glasper, Shaggy, Big Daddy Kane, Ray Angry,
and more performances...!
Of course ran into Ariel from Sutra with Moses, Jeffrey Boyd(Big Jeff), Shino Yanagawa and Dashaun Simmons, Blitz Bazawule, Sharief Hobley,Ryan Leslie,Meghan Stabile,Igmar Thomas,Yaseen Isa(Supreme),Keri, Naf Aroug,Shaka Zulu, Jarobi and Ali from ATCQ, Jill Newman,  and more...So many interesting people were there on the stage and in the audience. It was only for VIP people and  some performers got special dancers, bootsy shakers and flying girls...it was fun and great show. 
The beautiful thing about this show was after the show, DJ QUESTLOVE spinned with MC YAMEEN. People stayed and enjoy playing the bowling!!! I was busy running around with Shino to introduce my friends for networking but all and all I had a great time!!! 
Then Dec 20th @NBC Rock Center. We had a TV shooting for Xmas and new year with Jimmy Fallon and The Roots. Me and Big Jeff were invited by Naoto. We needed to wait outside to get in...so long time! And finally after a few hours of waiting hours, we got our Happy New Year hats and some accessories! We did not have Xmas yet by then!!! The Roots and Jimmy Fallon, some other artists were keep practicing the song for shooting. Somehow we were very in the middle of the audience, obviously I was with Big Jeff... The Roots members noticed us in the audience...I pork to some of the members a few days later, they were laughing at me to see me in the audience in that cold weather.It was really cold and could not believe that we actually kept standing in rain and wind in front of Rock Xmas Tree!!! The Roots played only 2 songs but over and over played them till they get OK. This was for Times Square count down show... We were screaming HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Before having Xmas of 2011...!
 On Dec 21st me and Mariko had MINT CONDITION at BB KING NY!http://www.mintconditionmusic.com/splash
Mint Condition is an R&B band from Saint Paul, Minnesota. Formed in the late 1980s, its original members were Stokley Williams (lead vocals, drums, percussion), Ricky Kinchen (bass guitar), Homer O'Dell (guitar), Larry Waddell (keyboards, piano), Keri Lewis (keyboards, synthseizer), and Jeffrey Allen (saxophone, keyboards). Currently, this line-up remains intact, with the exception of Lewis, who left the group to produce for other artists. The group is well known for its highly diverse musical style (able to play anything from traditional jazz stylings to mainstream R&B and rock-based music to funk grooves and even Latin and Jamaican-based rhythms) and also its captivating live performances. The band is also well known for their well written and produced R&B ballads, mainly in the 1990s. They mostly known for their hits "Breakin' My Heart (Pretty Brown Eyes)" (1991) and "What Kind of Man Would I Be" (1996)

It was so goooooood to be there after many hiphop shows. Actually so many mature audiences and they played from their old school R&B to new school. They also played my favorite P-FUNK song and James Brown song! AWWW!again my YES moment! They played, Atomic Dog from P-Funk!!! I was screaming and dancing harder lol
We had no chance to meet the members as we were tired but afterwards we went to have Korean food and got together with Keiko Tsukada who was just visiting NY only one week and DJ June chan!

On My Xmas Eve, I was with my co-worker Kaori and went to see Willie Jones Ⅲ at Village Vanguard. I really wanted to have my quality Jazzy Xmas.It was packed show and so many Japanese tourists were there but we enjoyed it, met singer Tony and a few more musicians.
After Vanguard, we peeped Smalls but I did not know any musicians so we were walking to Blue Note.
In front of Blue Note we met the producer and keyboard for The Roots and more,  Ray Angry!!! and his girl. He was busy talking to some other girls but once he noticed with me and my girl, asked us to go into BlueNote together. Actually the singer at that night for BlueNote was the waitress of BlueNote. We sat and Ray bought Champaign for us (but I dont drink alcohol at all as you know) then who came next??? yeah Craig Haynes who is a son of legendary Drummer ROY HAYNES!http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/musician.php?id=14282
Craig was riding a bike in that cooooold weather!!! All leathered out and in black!!! 
I ran into him quite a lot everywhere but I really did not expect seeing him on this Christmas eve!!!lol
We actually ended up having great time with drunk people on Christmas. It was very much like a NY and special Christmas day...in 2011...!!!
