Bembe!

Hi Friends

Bembe. Brooklyn, NY. My new spot. Can't believe last night was my first night there, but I had an AMAZING night. Hop in a cab, tell em we goin to Brooklyn! And right after we got off the bridge I turned and saw a club that looked like it was hiding. And the cute little sign said Bembe. Yes, we at the spot..

Walk in and right away I was drawn to the music. African/Dominican/hip hop/ill drums mixed with someone sitting down playing a procussion set and two other people playing djembes. If anyone knows me musically, you know I have a soft spot for djembe drums. Everyone up dancing just having a good time.. drinking guava margaritas all night and a few glasses of vodka watermelon in between. Just zoning out watching the dj and watching people playing the drums, all problems- GONE!

Its very refreshing to find a lounge where you can feel comfortable in and not have any worries. Apart from this, the ideals that this spot were created on are amazing. Any spot that aims to bring all different walks of life together through the love of music, nice fruit drinks, and dancing is great with me. All my NYCers if you haven't already, please go!

Eyeris

I wish my Spanish was better

I've waited almost two years for Paulo Coelho's new book.. and finally! its here. In every language BUT English. When I have kids, I'm going to force them to learn as many languages as possible. I once heard if you speak three languages you're trilingual, if you speak two you're bilingual and if you speak one you're American. For the majority of the population.. Anyways , Brida:


'But how will i know who my Soulmate is?'
'By taking risks' she said to Brida. 'By risking failure,disappointment,disillusion, but never ceasing in your search for Love.As long you keep looking, you will triumph in the end'.

This is the story of Brida, a beautiful young Irish girl, and her quest for knowledge. On her journey she meets a wise man who teaches her about overcoming her fears, and a woman who teaches her how to dance to the hidden music of the world. They see in her a gift, but must let her make her own voyage of discovery.

As Brida seeks her destiny, she struggles to find a balance between her relationships and her desire to transform herself.

"On the real

I didn't want a job wit a boss tellin me to push a mop shit I'd rather sell bud"

Jobs yo.. Seriously where can I even start? My reason for not having time to post or do half the things I'd like to do. Its crazy that its so hard to do what you love and live comfortably.

I don't believe in anything about my job.. And I do not gain anything from it besides money and more examples of how f*ked up the corporate world is (no I do not have a corporate job).

We have to pay bills and I live in new york city. The city where you'll walk around on a sunny day and spend over a hundred dollars and not even realize it. We have to survive, but how? Can't I just make music and share my stories and life with people? Shit... Society is fair frustrating.

Peace,
E

Diary of a wanderer

Well everyone I guess its fair to say that I'm officially a gypsy. Different places fascinate me. And it's a blessing to be able to venture. I'm sitting inside, looking outside at mountains, palm trees, and clear skies.

I have not been to every state or every country, but I am confident in saying that Cali is one of my favorite places, ever. I fell in love with LA two years ago when Yarah, DJ Vadim and Blu Rum took along 18 year old Eyeris on tour. We didn't get to go out really or experience the whole city but I fell in love with the people and the music. We went to Project Blowed and the mcs there are the illest. Yarah Vad and Blu had a show and I met some amazing people who are some of the best friends I've ever had.

So when I planned my trip for Palm Springs I knew I had to go to LA first. Am I being repetitive and overly excited? I won't apologize for that. You have to take what life gives you, and lately I haven't been thrown many things that cure numbness. I think the heat is getting to me.

Thank you LA, the tree man at Venice Beach, La Cita, the beatboxers, emcees, genuine people, b-girls, b-boys, styles, the girl who called me her fairy :)... oh and the sun.
