After such a long day of running around town, which felt like FOREVER I finally made it to the city in time to support one of the biggest artists to ever come out of Jamaica..
SPRAGGA BENZ!
It took me a while but it was great to finally get there and have the good vibes just embrace me like a sweater.
It was time to get the exclusives from the highly anticipated album "SHOTTA CULTURE"!! An album that SPRAGGA BENZ been working on for YEARS!!
But let me tell you about "TOP FLIGHT SECURITY".. you couldn't just sneak into this one.. oh no, they had the door on lock and was even looking at me kinda funny before letting me in!
Once I was in, everything was great..
SPRAGGA BENZ just made it onto the stage and the place was packed. Tons of media people were in the very front while industry players, supporters, celebs, and family occupied the space in the surrounding areas.
The party was CRAZY!! The atmosphere was lit! The vibes was nice! The people were beautiful, happy and supportive and Spragga Benz gave a PHENOMENAL show but the best part was watching him perform while the backdrop played the videos to the songs, it gave his performance a nice touch!
He was backed by DJ Hype, DJ Gravy, Kenny Meez and Max Glazer from
Federation Sound and trust me, I felt like I was at an outdoor stage show. For a moment, I thought SPRAGGA BENZ was backed by a live band!!
I already knew to expect the best because it was Max Glazer who mixed my favorite Aidonia mixtape and Federation Sound already made a name for themselves in the Dancehall circuit.. but to hear them at work was a whole different situation!
This album release party gave us the exclusives on "SHOTTA CULTURE".. we got to see the videos, hear the songs, learn about Spragga Benz and where he was coming from when he created this album.. and best of all, see him perform the tunes in a way that no one else ever could.
No youtube, live stream, snap shot or camcorder can ever describe to you the energy that was felt throughout the club that night!
It all went down at SANTOS PARTY HOUSE which was cool cause they have a nice atmosphere set up in there. Lots of strobe lights, fog machines, hors d'oeuvres and drinks galore!!
That night EVERYBODY went home with a copy of the SHOTTA CULTURE album, courtesy of Spragga Benz who seem to just want to spread the gift of music to his fans.. when I asked why, he said, "It's for my fans, I love them!"
The party was way more fun than I ever imagined.. I could get use to this!! :)
