The boy Mike Jaggerr, Sway and I.....
A good time was had by all last night at Mike Jaggerr's mixtape release party held in Wilmington, Delaware on Friday, February 4, 2011 at The Lux. The boy Jayson Rodriguez was holding court along with Grouchy Greg of AllHipHop.com, producer Rich Nice and many more were in the building. Delaware really came out to support...
You can get Mike's tape here.....
http://www.mikejaggerr.bandcamp.com/Afterward, I got a chance to sit with Mike Jaggerr and listen to some of his upcoming heat from his next mixtape....Let me tell you, the boy is on it! Producing. Rapping. Singing. Arranging. Looks and sounds like he is covering his all bases. Real good dude and I was glad I got a chance to chop it w him.
Here are some more pictures from the night's festivities.....
As for Sway, he was the same as you see on TV. Very personable and a man of the people. He took the time to shake each hand and hold a conversation and in some cases several (hint..hint..PUSH..@ yours truly) with everyone in the room which is big to me. I mean, he could have stayed holed up in the corner. He did not. I respect that about him. Real good dude.
Greg was just.....just wait 'till you see the pictures of my boy Greg. Same ole Greg. Very proud of him and glad everyone gets to see the Greg that I know and have known for years....
