This past Wednesday, ‘RnB Live  Hollywood’ returned with their 5-year anniversary show at venue Mooba in Hollywood. The nights lead performer was soul songstress Marsha Ambrosius, who performed a sultry and soothing set of her fan favorites and some new tracks. One of the nights highlights was when the UK bred singer/songwriter was randomly joined by R&B veteran Aaron Hall, and the two dueted on “Piece of My Love” and “Say Yes.” Peep the video footage below:

Just Blaze On The 1′s & 2′s At Fat Beats, NYC

On the last day of being open two years ago Fat Beats in NYC invited a whole bunch of DJ’s & producers to the closing event. A bunch of DJ’s got up and done their thing for the crowd before the king Just Blaze got up and rocked a 20 minute set compiled of pretty much every instrumental he has ever done (at the time) all mixed into one dope set. This is a great watch.
