VA Hip Hop and Fashion

I just want everyone to know my brother is my inspiration behind dis whole thing...he is busting his behind doin his hip hop thang and he is damn good at it...he's doing all these shows and has not gotten what he is deserved and dats a deal...dis dude really has it (and I am not being biased at all!) to take hip hop in a different direction. it is so innovative and i love it! so VA dis is 4 u...dis whole creation...hip hop is 4 my bro and all dats hungry tryna make it and fashion is 4 me and everyone who breathes it. i am in the process of creating a channel on youtube called VA Cypher; shows showcasing VA musicians called "Save the Hip Hop Playlist", and a yearly event combining music and fashion called V-A Lister: Music Meets Fashion which is a rip the runway type thing thats just all VA locals showcasing their music while local designers strut their creations on the runway. Its a long journey but I am here to make dis thing work for my community. The smaller shows are to raise money to fund a beautiful venue (i.e. Granby Theater or the Norva) each year where performers can showcase on stage in front of hundreds as if their in their own concert! Its hard out here I know, and so I want to keep the dream alive and keep feeding their dreams. Alot of these artsist are better than these lil shows they be doing at Hammerheads and such places. It's old and it's time to upgrade and get their talent out there u feel me? just keeping it funky. I see alot of potential in a lot of these artists and it breaks my heart when they feel like their stuck or that people arent taking them seriously. This is more than a hobby! This is their life, and for some their way of life to live a better one!
