We've been on the island of Oahu since this morning. Greeted by humidity and clouds and the ocean view 18 floors up from our condo, we've been enjoying the delicious food, hospitality, and escape from LA.

Join us Friday night at the W Hotel in Honolulu if you're in the area too. Members of our Kallusive Dance Crew (Ace, Jia, Laura Edwards) will also be teaching dance workshops on Saturday. Seems like a busy weekend around here with Hot Import Nights (HIN) and Pearl Harbor day just around the corner.

I was able to check out Nas at Club Nokia, one of the newest venues in downtown LA, across from the Staples Center at the LA Live entertainment complex. Club Nokia is the latest addition to the growing downtown nightlife experience. Here's a video of Nas performing Black President and Hero.

Ms. Alba got her hands on some vinyl in this photoshoot. Would you want her hands on your turntables? I know a few DJs who wouldn't mind.





And it's that time again. The search for rare records and other good stuff continues. Get your own hands on some vinyl at the Beat Swap Meet. Dig a lil bit.

Kallusive's DJ Frank(e) will be spinning a set along with other guest DJs for your listening pleasure as you dig through the crates.
