What does the word DJ mean to you? No, really…think about it. Think deeper. Everybody gives a different meaning to the word DJ. Everybody has an opinion about a DJ. “He talks too much in the mic, He never lets the song finish, he plays too monotone, he only plays hits, he’s good but… can’t build […]
O Glorious Sa Ra
Ghent, 30/10/2009 Sa Ra Creative Partners. Where do I begin? How can one define Sa Ra for the ones that have never heard of SA RA. I’ll try… Here we go: Sa Ra is a trio of artists / producers / musicians that consists of Om’Mas Keith , Taz Arnold and Shafiq Husayn, three very individual creatures that once […]
The Big Easy?
AB (Brussels), 18/10/2009 Boy O Boy! Do I have a pretty story to tell with (lots of) pretty pictures for the ones that hate to read! Like Etta said: At Last! Raphael Saadiq in the land of waffles, beer and exquisite chocolate. It’s like Raphael has always been around, discrete in the background, but very […]
Tears For Talib.
Culture Club (Ghent), 20/05/09 Now, it took me a looong time to write this one down. For different reasons, I always postponed it. Talib Kweli was in town. He was not performing concert-wise, he was hosting a dj-set in Culture Club, Ghent. Now, I’m not so keen anymore on artists making a quick buck spinning […]

Flashing a Grand Master; Pt II
Les Ardentes, 16/07/2009 Remember the ‘Fuck The Slice, I Want The Pie‘ story? If you don’t, I highly recommend you to catch up on that one. It shines a light on my quest in a very ‘no pain, no gain’ kinda way. But, you know what they say: ‘By perseverance the snail reached the […]
Doing an accidental Ditto.
Les Ardentes, 16/07/2009 Waiting on the wrong side of the Les Ardentes festival for Method Man and Redman has its bright sides, you know. I mean, you mìght just run into Beth Ditto. Yes. Beth Ditto. I was standing there all alone, when the most amazing voice since Amy Winehouse just walked me by all fresh […]
Double Trouble with Meth and Red.
But also…. Les Ardentes, 14/07/2009 This is the XL story. Well, what…?! Did you think these pictures fell in my lap or what? Or, even better, that these are PolaDRoids…? Come on, people, you should know me better than thàt. 🙂 (Vooruit, Ghent) It’s been a while. But they are back. The infamous, the notorious, […]
N.E.R.D: The SagAaaaaargh!!!! continues.
Rotterdam, DATE??? I have a shit load of artists that need to be posted asap, but this happened just yesterday and I REALLY need to get this of my chest. The more the blog evolves the more people ask me: “Why do you do this?” “Are you paid, to do this?” “But, really, why do […]
Ouni is full page.
For my internationals…you might not understand a word of what’s underneath. But trust me…this is a good thing. 😉 (The picture from Killah Priest is wrong titled and is obsviously nòt GZA, you know journalists…) Big up to Kristof Bohez for this!
