On the road with Blitz & the Stereolive tour
Posted by Mikey 1SOUL | Filed under Uncategorized
I’m out in California on tour with Blitz the Ambassador for a leg of the STEREOLIVE tour. Its the first time we here at MVMT have produced a tour, so its very exciting for us. The response has been great so far and people are loving Blitz on the westcoast. I’ve been getting some dope flix in and also shooting and editing these lil promos on the fly for some of the shows. There has also been some hilarious behind the scene shenanigans going down that might never see the light of day..sorry, what happens on tour, stays on tour. We been kicking it and ebing backed by the Park, one of the baddest bands in Cali and some real funny dudes, glad we kicking it with them out here! Check out the flix from chico state show
If you know any homies near our locations, please let them know that is a not to be missed show!

The BAY AREA has been one of my best sources for GOOD ASS MUSIC and some of the best talents. And alot fo them are my own damn partnas!!
Here is a fresh new video from the homie Do D.A.T. featuring Melina Jones
http://www.vimeo.com/8979470Do D.A.T. Bio
One interaction with Do D.A.T and you’ll quickly figure out that he’s not the average artist coming out of the Bay Area’s music scene. Listening to a few songs will leave you with the understanding that this is an artist with a passion for making quality music. Do D.A.T. is all smiles. If you were one the bay area’s most promising young personalities, you’d be smiling too.
As a member of one the most high energy performance hip hop group, The Attik, he’s had the honor of opening up shows for many of hip hop’s founding alumni & outstanding scholars. D.A.T. has had the Privilege of sharing the stage with artists such as KRS One, Little Brother, Guru, Ise Lyfe, The Team, Zion I, Mistah F.A.B., Aceyalone, Mystic, Clide Carson, E40, Crown City Rockers and Dead Prez.He has performed at venues throughout California, across the country to the East Coast, and a brief tour down to Puerto Rico.

This is an artist who stays true to his heart as well as, Hip-hop, the Bay Area, and his community. As an educator for up and coming Bay Area artist at B.A.V.C- D.A.T. has inspired and encouraged the up coming generation to be more than just emcees and singers. His advice to the youth is simple. Be a proactive artist in the approach you take to creating, promoting, and consuming music. D.A.T. has lead creative writing & social justice workshops for almost every major high school in the Oakland/San Francisco Bay area. He’s also been a featured speaker at several conferences across the nation.
Hosting some of the more popular parties in the Bay Area with Dj Sake One along side Fran Boogie has allowed him to keep his finger on the pulse of the current music scene. Emceeing local fundraisers, award ceremonies for disabled youth, poetry slams, and open mic hip hop shows, has allowed him to stay in tuned with the local community and music culture.
Many people believe that hip hop is dead. Do D.A.T. is evidence that hip hop is not extinct, but that Hip hop has evolved.
Listen to his music and decide for yourself.
