Greenhouse CD Release Party

This past Saturday Greenhouse (Blueprint and Illogic) introduced Part 1 of their Electric Purgatory album at Skully's. Opening for them was Kam Moye (aka Supastition) from North Carolina. Props to him for a well-performed set and some feel-good type of music , albeit mostly focusing on how old he is and how much he's disconnected from "the mainstream".

From Blueprint and Illogic, overall I was really happy to hear a good mix of new stuff (including a delayed, but decent verse by Zerostar, and a hallucinogenic-imbued freestyle from The Catalyst) and some older stuff like "Break Bread". The whole thing seemed a little unorganized, with pauses between a lot of songs and some on-stage confusion, but then again it was a CD release party. I picked up a copy of the EP on my way out... good songs with a preference for "Never Gonna Make It", "Boys to Men" and "Cold Out Here."

J Rawls spun some music after the Greenhouse set and the b-boys took over most of the dance floor from that point on. We left Skully's and grabbed a slice of pizza from my new vice on High, somewhere around 3rd... you know, the one that plays episodes of the Chappelle Show and Family Guy on the parking lot wall. Expensive, but delicious after a night of drinks.
