About Friday Night: Nipsey Hussle – Warehouse Live [@nipseyhussle]
Editor’s Note: Normally we would give you a rundown of what happened at a concert, traditional journalism style. Remember our Disclosure review at Warehouse?

About Last Night: Disclosure Arrives, Rocks & Leaves At Warehouse Live [@disclosure @warehouselive]
The only thing that could damper Disclosure’s demeanor Wednesday night and well into Thursday morning at Warehouse Live was that they couldn’t play any further. EDM shows aren’t that notorious for not starting on time (that distinction belongs to rap shows), but they can really start almost near Houston’s mandatory 2 AM curfew. By the […]

It may have been a private event but like most things in Houston, Sevyn Streeter’s “Arrive Big” event with Heineken & 97.9 The Box brought out plenty of faces — not just to mingle but to also hear the rising “It Won’t Stop” singer perform. Clad in a sheer black top and jeans, the woman […]
On The Social Experiment Of Chance The Rapper [@chancetherapper @wescoremore @bizzyb420]
Last Saturday at Warehouse Live, 20-year-old Chicago artist, Chance the Rapper took the members of his sold-out show on a mass acid trip full of colorful lights, sweat and footwork during his Social Experiment Tour.

Life Of The Party: On SCOPE Show & Houston’s Expanding Festival Scene [@scopeshow]
On Wednesday, the marketing team behind the SCOPE Show wasted little to no time rolling out the date for the third edition of the fledgling art and fashion expo. “March 2nd,” the announcement came in near all caps on Twitter.

#SomewhereInEssence – On New Orleans, Beyoncé & Essence Fest 2013
An initial trip to New Orleans could not have come as a more auspicious time for myself. For starters, Black America finds itself gripped to its television sets and various forms of social media trying to gain some sense of the George Zimmerman trial, people are rummaging through different reactions to Jay-Z’s latest over-commercialized toast […]
About Last Night: J.Cole “This Is For The Stans” ‘Dollar & A Dream’ Houston Show [@jcolenc]
If you were a J.Cole stan, last night’s dollar show at House Of Blues was for you. If you weren’t then you probably would have to bear with your friends yelling for a new song you had no idea about. Either way, Cole World gave the people what they wanted with a dizzying setlist that […]
