Count it!
It was always a DREAM to put together an ART show with my FAMILY & FRIENDS & now its the time to realize that dream. Combining all our talent, time & energy & focusing that into a cohesive show & seeing a positive response from the public has left me speechless. Thank yous to everyone that came out & supported us, the Santee Gallery for lending us the space, Angel City Brewery, David Diaz catering service, & Dj Ever-Ede for the beats. This is definitely the first of many.
ONELOVE!

CAlifornia soul
Posted in ART IS WORK with tags aloe blacc, jazz, music, rootdown, soul, stones throw records on July 27, 2009 by collectivelaSo Cal native Aloe Blacc began his recording career as an MC back in 1995, when he joined up with hip-hop producer Exile to form the mainstay indie rap group, Emanon. A few years later, Aloe would stow away on a Lootpack European tour and become fast friends with Oh No a relationship which led to many fruitful collaborations as a solo artist.
These days, Aloe Blacc has evolved into a true Renaissance man dubbed the indie R. Kelly by online retailer Turntable Lab. Recordings like his Latin cover of John Legends Ordinary People prove that not only can this multi-instrumentalist produce, rap and sing but he can flip it in Spanish, too. With an amazingly broad set of influences ranging widely from the acoustic guitar stylings of folk artist Cat Stevens, to the soul-stirring sounds of the Negro Spirituals, Aloe prides himself on the spectrum of his musical roots. His sound often forays into the digital R&B realm, but always grooves with a tinge of Latin and the pulse of hip-hop.
I got the pleasure of seeing him live for the first time at the ROOTDOWN. Honestly, I’m impressed by his talent & his character. Just another cool cat doing what he loves. don’t sleep on this!

Posted in ART IS WORK with tags art, glass blowing, jenny calaba, sculpture on July 11, 2009 by collectivelaI’m here in the lab with CA glass artist, Jenny Calaba, doing work for our upcoming show!
The fire is so intense you have to wear protective glasses or your cornea will catch fire. This is what it looks like to melt glass.
pretty hot
you gotta be careful where you stand cause there’s broken glass everywhere.
stay tuned for more work
