Photoblog: A3C Hip Hop Festival Best Block Party Ever Old 4th Ward Atlanta Ga 10.6.2013

On Sunday afternoon I went over to Edgewood ave to Check out A3C Hip Hop Festival's The Best Block Party Ever . This was a block party with some legendary Hip Hop Dj's like Diamond D , Dj Scratch, Questlove, Maceo, Jaycee, and hosted by Atlanta's own Dres The Beatnik . When I got there Diamond D was wrapping up his set and then Dj Scratch came on and kept the vibe going. And as the day proceeded Maceo then Jaycee and Questlove , then the rain started and I left . Mother Nature messed up my vibe and also the venue was not covered I left right before the sky opened up. But it was a very cool event and I had a great time . But enough of me , lets see the pics. enjoy

Photoblog : Needle To The Record Dj Competition @ A3C Festival Atlanta Ga 10.12.2012

Last Friday night I went to check the Needle To The Record Dj Competition over at the A3C Hip Hop  Festival at Masquerade. When I got to Masquerade I went to check out the festival before I went in to the Needle To The Record  part. I caught the very tail end of the Wu Tang  performance, then I went upstairs to the Red Bull stage checked out a performance for a quick second , then I went downstairs to and got situated for the competition. The special guest judges for the evening were Dj Swiftee and Presyce , and were were treated to have Hip Hop legends Kool Dj Red Alert , and Teddy Tedd , and hosted by Ms. Dia from WRFG . It was a quick simple format , 6 Dj's with one shot to show their skills. The first two that were up was Dj Logic , and Dj Aquaria the only woman in the competition. Then next up was Boi Jeanius and Dj Azul . And the last two were Dj Razah and Dj Flipflop. Between the Dj sets  Dj Cha Cha Jones kept the crowd into the party with her selections , then Dj Shiftee, 2009 DMC Champion and King James, 2011 Needle To The Record Champion gave a turntable performance . Then it was time to crown the winner of the competition and Dj Flipflop was crowned the winner of the Needle To The Record competition. And he won a bunch of cool gear from Native Instruments .  And Dj Ghost came on to close the night out, I had a good time that night at the competition and the festival, but enough of me lets see the pics. enjoy
