Here’s a piece of hip-hop related Gonz trivia for the nerds out there: He’s the dude who paints the figures on the glass which Fatlip smashes at the end (beginning) of the Pharcyde Drop video, directed by Spike Jones
And speaking of skateboarding and Spike Jones, people need to check out the Girl skateboards video, Mouse, from the mid-nineties. Its directed by Spike and the soundtrack is on some intensely bad-ass 70s classic funk shit.

Three Is the Magic Number
Eric Burdon & War – Magic Mountain
James Brown – Doing It to Death
Booker T. & the MG’s – Time Is Night
Joe Cuba – El Pito
Cymande – Brothers on the Slide
Curtis Mayfield – (Don’t worry) If there’s a hell below we’re all going to go
Earth, Wind & Fire – Shining Star
Bob James – Nautilus
Royal Flush – World Wide
Gwen McCrae – 90% of Me Is You
War – Slipping Into Darkness

One of my most influential childhood memories is playing this video repeatedly just to hear the soundtrack, before I had turntables or facial hair.. absolute classic

“Yo that’s my mom .. she’s big in the graffitty scene” .. haha. And the ‘Willy Wonka’-tag. Wunderbar!

Still around .. had little time the last weeks due to some deadlines in University and a rap show we organized in town.
Speaking of which, what about the ASM-tour that was scheduled for early ‘09?
