So the other day I went snapping with my mate Ayo and his friend Malachi. All of us with our cameras snapping away like no tomorrow. It was soo good and I learnt so much from them. Here's some the best pics:
BADU is BACK! Last night I heard Erykah Badu was going to do a concert in London. Didn't believe it until did a lil digging around. Low and behold it was true! I really wanna go and see Badu...tickets are £32.50, which isnt too bad. I really shuld have gone to see her last year but was procrastinating. Anyway the concert will be held at Brixton Academy.
So Katy B released her debut album 'On A Mission'. Katy B been around for a while but recently has blownup. Her biggest tune has got to be 'On a Mission' produced by Benga (the guy who made 'Night' - remember that tune! Even till this day I still blaze out this tune. My fav song of her's is 'Tell Me' which she featured on for DJ NG.
I think you should all go out and support her. BUY her album, download it only if you completely broke. I do have a link for it but im not going to bring you guys in because we really need to start supporting our UK talent (only the good ones though).
My mate Kitz (@KittyAmorPDT - follow her) is part of the entertainment group PDT who are well known for their raves especially in the uni scene! They held a rave in Pandora's Box, Nottingham on 24th March and seen as Ive just started photography, Kitz asked me to come up and do some for her event. So went work, then dashed up to Notts via National Express (the family that were on my coach would not let me live, soooo LOUD). Anyway, so I stopped off at Maryland *love eyes* (best chicken and chip shop) and made my way to Kitz' house.
Anyway got to the venue, and gradually the beautiful people of Nottingham started pouring in. The rave was RAMMMMMMMM before I knew it.

Now this was my first time doing event photography so I was being bare polite asking people if they wanted a picture. Ive defo learnt NEVER ask, just take it! Aim the camera and snap! So yeah, the music was popping offf! Tune after tune!! Loved Dj Rudes' set, proper took me back to the good ol days.
The highlight for me were a small group of freshies in the rave! These guys gave me joke. As soon as afrobeats came one of them starts dancing, posing for me to take pics of him loooool.
Overall, I met a lot of really nice people and I will be going back to Notts when they have their end of term stuff! First hit Kingston and then Notts! That week is going to be crazzzzyyy!
Lastly, big up to the PDT Team! Thanks for blessing me with a great opportunity!
So yesterday was the 2nd day of Dwele's UK tour! I missed him the last time he was over here and was adamant on getting my tickets asap. Missing out again would have been much! Anyway so 1-4-11 arrives!!! Me, my mate cat and her sis Jen, made our way to the Jazz Cafe. We stopped off at McD's - loool @ Cat getting shouted at by one Mcd's worker!!
Anyway got to The Jazz Cafe in Camden and we were greeted by some mean hench off polish bouncers. After questioning whether my ID was mine, we got in. Took some pics to past time and i also bumped into my friend John and also saw Sexy Yas aswell.
loving the outfit!
Anyway, after about an hour of waiting, Dwele comes on to perform. My gosh did he look suave *love eyes*. Dwele's vocals seduced my ears, arrgghh i love this guy! He also paid tribute to the late Nate Dogg (RIP). I will upload the video of this in due course.
The highlight of the night for me was the guy on the keyboard! I will nickname him 'Rasta' for obvious reasons. When Rasta did his solo piece, he went INNNNNNNNNNNN! Dreads flying all over the gaff, he even went so crazy that his glasses fell off. The way he was going on you would of thought it was his concert! -_- Either way, you could tell he had a passion for music, well either that or he was on suttin!
Not a great pic but this is when the glasses went flying. Even Dwele's getting in a sneaky laugh

Another highlight was at the end, Dwele was singing in the crowd. This girl next to me was talking throughout the concert about how sexy he is etc and as soon as he hopped down from the stage, she goes 'im getting in there'. Please believe this chick pushed her way through the crowd towards him and starts whining up on Dwele! Bravery!
Overall, I enjoyed the concert but an hour was not enough. I wish he done some of his older stuff as well. But if your in love with his latest album 'Wants. Women. World' then you'll thoroughly enjoy the concert!
He's added more dates for his UK tour so it's not too late to get tickets!
