VIDEO: 4NZIX X METHOD MAN (Live)

20 01 2012

I just stumbled onto these phone videos online and thought I’d share a moment in time with you… In January 2011 at Wu-Tang After Party Method Man and 4NZIX of La Famiglia and Convotronics shared the stage.. Here’s what ensued.

First Meth….no, he wasn’t standing on the wall

Then 4NZIX…

That’s all. 5iveit.





Mike G Productions presents Snoop Dogg at The Intersection

20 01 2012

On the heels of a packed WU-Tang show, Mike G Productions and the Intersection have announced some big news.

Snoop Dogg will be entering Michigan in less than two weeks to perform at what will surely be a sold out show.

Mike’s band, La Famiglia, will open the show. In the past few weeks they’ve had several performances featuring new material from Mike’s upcoming solo album. It’s been interesting to watch and hear the songs grow on stage.

Respect due to Scott Hammondtree at the Intersection for continuing to support Hip Hop.

Tickets Tickets ($35 in advance, 18+) for the GR show are on sale NOW at The Intersection Box Office, Purple East, Shakedown Street, VertigoMusic, SectionLive.com and ETIX.com. Doors open at 8 p.m. 5iveit.

UPDATE: Chiddy Bang has been added to the line up in the front room… Also, at 7pm there will be a front room show with performances from many others. 5iveit.
