Enjoy the conversation with Bilal – all of you real music lovers should enjoy this one. Africa really gets Bilal to discuss his view of music, and pushing the limits as an artist. For those of you who are NOT in the know, Bilal is a most beloved artist – and a great live performer. Google him… and a here’s a special message to the captors…FREE THAT SECOND ALBUM DAMMIT!!

Shouts out to SomaLux on the Production! Booyah Baby – You major!
Part 1.

Part 2.

Friends, Colleagues, Critics and Music Lovers,

I’m not kidding then I say to you that a Room 11 show is a good time.
The live set is full of fine musicians, wild moments of glee, on-stage antics and good old funk.

Scratch the words – this is the digital age.  Go ahead honey, take a bite… savor it for a second.

And you can even dance with out your shoes on…

AND if The Morseland was paying me,

I’d probably say something about how good their food and drinks are.

Have another taste…it’s the lovely ladies of Allegra Dolores on the vocals.

Listen…you’re always hearing about the show AFTER the fact.
Get up with the Get Down…

Room 11 is  performing at The Morseland on Friday, July 31st.

1218 Morse Avenue (near Sheridan)

10PM
$5 All Night

PLUS!

VERY Special Guests:

Africa Hot

H20 Soul

Room 11 are:  Allegra Dolores , Big Ced , Frankie Blaze and Mr Murphy

Kill Your Radio and go see a show. If I may recommend Miss Cherisse Scott…backed some of Chicago’s finest musicians, including some of the residents(seen and unseen) of the FoxBFox family. Shouts to Africa Hot (on vocals, in the middle…@africahot for those who do the @); Kevin Smith (Drums and yes, I claim him, he’s my lil bro) and the magical Sean Wallace aka The Good Doctor! on those keys.

Three things:
– Out of all the liquor brand sponsored shows I’ve seen in my life – this intimate, rich, lively set was the best FREE show I’ve ever seen in my life – a non-branded one by the way. Someday brands will see the light and put their money down on Indie.
But N-E-WAY… that’s an article that WON’T appear on Ad Age Mobile tomorrow.

– If you were there… you know the Flip Cam (plug me back baby) didn’t do the real live MOMENT justice.

- I appreciate a person who can do a damn good cover song or two or ten. Look, whether we like it or not, the people wanna hear something that they know. Kill em slow with a familiar joint, then make them ASK for you when you turn them out.

Passionate love for the artists…Enjoy the videos.
