DC native, Artist, Music Director, Fashion Designer Tabi Bonney has released his new “FRESH” tee. Love the simplicity of it.
His new album “Fresh” should be out this summer as well! For more information, go to www.bonneyrunway.com and catch Tabi on TOUR this summer! He will be on the “Rock the Bells Tour” (please go to www.ticketmaster.com) for your cities dates.. and has a show with Wale June 3rd in DC. Please go to www.930.com for those tickets :o)
So I was cruising the net and I thought “Hmm, let me head over to Elitaste and see what’s going on over there”, since I’m thinking about going to the Wale show in B-More on Monday. I won’t be able to catch him in DC June 3rd (will be in PA for my cousins graduation)
Looks like he will be DEBUTING the NEW Jordan L’Style shoe and I have to say I like the shoe. It’s very clean and just has an all around neat look to it. It’s a screen shot from the “Chillin” video which I know is going to be SICK!
I actually saw the video about two weeks ago at his DC premiere and LOVED it! So glad today is the WORLD premiere! :o) Tabi always delivers folks! Support him! This is the first single off of his “dope” EP which is avail on iTunes right now. Enjoy!
Take a guess of where I got the link from. YUP! Twitter :o) LoL.. Tabi Bonney posted it himself and I went to go check it out. The Reaction Band is a Go Go band in the area for those who are not familiar with the DC scene :o) Check it out though. Don’t judge Go Go until you hear it LIVE. It’s AMAZING!
Soooooo last night was a SERIOUS treat for the DC area, but first let me rewind a bit. I had SUCH a productive day at work and handling some PR things I couldn’t wait to get home, change and head up with my girls! Headed to the Tabi Bonney event was a journey for us. Number one it was being held at a secret location AND you had to have a password to gain access. I thought that was really cute. We need to do more things like that here :o) So okay! I got all the info from his team like 2 days before so we were good. Cousin Brittany is driving and we have the navigation out. She says “you have arrived at your destination”. THAT was a NEGATIVE..LoL. So, luckily I had Jay Promo’s number so I hit him and he got us there :o)

The atmosphere was “dope”. It was the movers and shakers of the area. Great to be surrounded by people who are making moves just like your self and have a PASSION for the industry. I am still not sure where we actually were. Looked like a warehouse and we went up to the third floor and it was like a house party kind of. The feel was great! The video premiered around 10:30 pm and of couse it’s SICK! Tabi does it everytime! Shout out to Cool Kids Forever Films. Nice job :o) Can’t wait to see it on MTV, BET & VH-1.
Jay Promo, Kevin aka Scooty, Eric aka Eezy-E
The night was a success. It was great to be back on the scene. It’s getting more exciting everyday yall, I swear. It’s been a long time coming, but it’s here. Shout out to DJ Heat, DJ Furious Styles, X.O., Lyriciss, Vada..just everybody :o) Oh! For more pictures, please go to www.elitedcmag.com

The above event took place on TUESDAY and boy was that an entertaining show! If you are an up & coming rapper you really need to tune into “Funkadelic Freestyles” every TUESDAY on www.gwradio.com @8pm. It’s hosted by jben.ok and he definitely holds it down! The cast they had was..uhhhh..LoL, HILARIOUS!! and next time they do it, I want in okay? :o) THANKS! lol. Now let’s see here..they had 2Hood4Hollywood, Jay Promo, Adrian, Tabi Bonney, X.O., Rique & Kevin and I know many others in the studio, that was off top the head. They talked about everything and of course they discussed Twitter and I even got my shout out (WHOOP!) So all in all it was a successful night!
Below, are the links to the podcast of the show and the freestyle that Tabi Bonney & X.O. blessed us with at the end :o) ENJOY!!
The video for “Go Hard” was being taped at Pure on Monday night and here is some footage of Tabi Bonney performing “Rich Kids”. I see you Funkadelic Freestyle TV!!

Kudos to MTV for finally coming to our area, where we are the home to so many talented folks here and to Adrian for sending this my way:o)
