The homie Ayla (p/k/a Brass Pix) got some great shots from the U-N-I & J*Davey show at the Roxy including Y-O cutting off his signature mohawk.
More good flicks from the show featured on URB.com.

Why didn’t I know about this? Better late than never.

Here’s an excerpt from the interview w/ they did w/ the LA Times listing their favorite moments of 2009:
1.The tour we just did with Warren G, Kidz in the Hall and Curtains and we had a ball together. It was so much fun. There were a bunch of us on one bus and you’d think we’d get on each other’s nerves and fight, but every drive was jokes, conversations about music and life. It was crazy how well we got along.
2.The single deal we did with Green Label sound to release “Land of the Kings.”
3. Hosting MTV’s “Sucker Free.”
4.Getting our first merchandise made: “Land of the Kings” T-shirts and hats.
5. Going overseas to Sweden, Norway, the Czech Republic and London. It was a great experience to see our fans reciting our lyrics in English, a language that many of them didn’t even understand.
Here’s the trailer for their documentary done by DRG Films (who also captured our DJ Khalil interview)
The documentary should drop around the same time U-N-I releases A Love Supreme 2.0 in February…keep your eyes open.

The weekend filled with performances was all caught on tape by the machine @ alwayshustle.com. The show at the Mountain Bar had performances by Diz Gibran, Moonshine, Dom Kennedy, U-N-I, El Prez, Carter, TiRon, Tunji, Ayomari, Basicali & H.O.P.E.
It was dope to see so much talent on one stage.
Here are some of the videos:
For the rest of the performances, check out AlwaysHustle’s Vimeo Page
Fresh off the Love Supreme album is Hollywood Hiatus (we played it on the show a bunch)…this video looks like it was a lot of fun & the ikea-commercial whip was a nice touch.
If you lag, you can still get A Love Supreme @ YOTHURZ.COM
…and here’s a clip from their freestyle at The Takeover last month
