[80's rap is pink clouds] 

Two words: Todd P. One-man wrecking show, promoter, party love juice bringer, yellow t-shirt wearer. I went to one of his shows in Austin (Celebration, Flosstradamus, etc) where Vice freak Gavin McGinness kept chugging beers and Kyp Malone was affably walking around. Turns out Todd P turns the party out.


NYC PARTIES UNITE!


And Lower East Side space Cakeshop on 152 Ludlow between Stanton and Rivington brings heat. Be there if yr ever in New York.

Works

• I'm working on a novel. Houston, in the year 2024, is filled with rappers-as-sorcerers and a 33-year-old Mexican-American DJ named Juan Gomez who lives with his parents. What is more sci-fi than rich Mexicans? Living in River Oaks while a mysterious red Buick Regal roams the neighborhood and a pint-sized Rhodes Scholar rapper who is obsessed with Schopenhauer. A part-satire, part-thriller, part-naco science-fiction novel where David Foster Wallace meets UGK? Look for it on bookshelves in 2093.
