Camden Calling Presents | Urban Beatfare

Mar 2012

Yesterday evening, I was honored to be apart of an event set-up by Camden Calling, described in their own words as ‘a social enterprise run collectively with homeless and ex-homeless people whom put their problems aside to host live music events for a mainstream audience.‘

Although responsible for a whole host of goodies, Camden Calling host a monthly event called The Urban Beatfare specifically for all things hip-hop! I took part in yesterday’s open mic (which is a contest held as an additional part of the main event) and I won!

Part of the win was that I got to take home this lovely T-shirt!

…and if that wasn’t enough, I’ve also been given the chance to open the next show with a full set which will take place on 1st April at The Enterprise! I’m really looking forward to it & I hope you’ll join me – not only is this a night of great live music & fun, you’ll also be supporting a good cause as the proceeds go to the people most in need – Come & get involved!

Decisions, decisions…

Dreama

I’m trying to decide whether it’s worth buying some Beats By Dre (BBD) headphones even though I already have Skull Candy (SK) Pro’s and they are pretty dope.I feel like it’s time for an upgrade but at the same time I feel as though its kinda disloyal to the SK’s since I adore them!

So what do each have to offer and do the BBD’s clearly poop all over the SK’s?

The quick answer is probably, mostly because the person creating the BBD’s is Dr. Dre himself – a legend in hip-hop and R&B production. However, I have a love affair with my SK’s and not just that pair either; I have gone through quite a few pairs of in-ear styles of their earphones too.

I just love that (apart from the black & white ones above) SK’s range are bright, colourful and pretty, and the audio quality is off the freakin’ hook, yet it seems BBDs would offer all that and more…Hmmm?
