This past Sunday Alex, Sycko and I made a last minute decision to check out our friends Quan and Mochadon downtown as they were hosting a “GOTHAM KAFE” event.

If you remember from the “HOLIDAYS” Visions 18 party we went to, this was pretty similar…art, fashion, snacks, treats, and good vibes to the max. There’s a lot more to say about how special the “Gotham Kafe” event is, but instead of using wordy descriptions I will just insist you experience for yourself. If you’re not sure how to find out about it, trust this blog…we’ll let you know.

In addition to all the aforementioned goodies associated with the event, we were treated to unforgettable performances by Kesed, Jeff Donna, Jersey Klan’s – OGM, and Moruf! When I say unforgettable, I mean so energetic and live that the feeling for all that were there is not something that will ever disappear. I hope in the near future to share with you the work of all the performers, but for now I’m going to share a little on Moruf.

What we witnessed with our first exposure the New Jersey emcee, was him ripping through a set of anthemic songs which had the audience rhyming along side of him every step of the way. A gift of lyrical pleasures through and through, I urge you to check out this video he and Jersey Klan did with Tone below…

I highly recommend getting acquainted, as it’s been on in the shop all week and everywhere else I could possibly be listening to music. Moruf has his album “Ready to Live” available for free download here – http://ready2live.tumblr.com
