Who What Where

Been quite for a minute. What have I been doing, you ask?

Still plugging away for URB. Props to them for the Diplomats issue. Not really my thing, but I like the direction they are headed with new associate ed Brandon Perkins. An important step forward.

Been dropped by the Washington Post. Methinks they've got too many hip-hop oriented folks like me. Still scribbling for the Washington Post Express. Did a piece on Elvis Costello for them.

Also, did anyone check the Sauce's April issue? It is probalby the thinnest issue i've caught in at least 5 years--if I were an advertiser, i'd be hella skeptical. Anyway, a detailed Source history begins on page 44 that drops dimes on everyone and details the innumerable wrongs that were done at the mag. Hopefully things will improve because as much as I've grown to dislike this pub, it's influence on me as a writer and hip-hop head is undeniable. Congrats to Faith Dunn, who penned the piece that takes Mays & Benzino to task hopefully for the last time.

I'm also working on a book. More news soon...
