Hip-Hop for Haiti was a total success!!!!! Humbrews was rockin' and about 300 people showed up to support the cause. Music started round 10 with J the Sarge representing the One Wise Sound on the turntables...segued into VJ Itchy Fingaz playing some of the finest old school hip-hop jams (thanks for Mos Def Ms. Fat Booty!!)

Honest Truth with Area Sound came on around 10:45 and surprised the crowd with a special guest and a special spoken word poem written about Haiti specifically for this event. It was great and set the mood for a magical night for sure. Honest Truth rocked the stage for about 45 minutes ranging from 3 mc vocalists, to a saxophonist, to Lauren playing melodica and even some hip-hop dance moves.

Following their set, the dancefloor made room for the Beat Vixens Hip-Hop Dance Crew to heat up the place (even more). Five hot women, beats the like of "Push It", and dance moves to make you sweat..... :) Yowza!! But wait there's more! Humboldt Rockers came out with a group of 10 (or so) and stepped it up!!! Flips, jumps, spins, coordinated routines....the works!!!

B. Swizzlo's Hip-Hop Lounge took the stage around midnight and sweetened the crowd with their live renditions of hip-hop's greatest hits. J the Sarge did something different with his solo live set....and flowed into Medusa KILLIN' it with her slick rhymes and powerful energy.

In addition to the amazing line-up, Forget-Me-Not Photo Booth came and set up, and we also facilitated a fabulous drawing for wonderful local prizes!

Final report for the night was that everyone had a great time -- musicians and patrons alike.....AND......we raised over $1700 for Partners In Health!!! I'm so stoked on what we (I) was able to accomplish within my local community.
BIG THANKS goes out to everyone who donated time, energy, or physical donations to help make this event a reality -- J the Sarge, Students for Global Health, all the local businesses who contributed to the drawing, HUMBREWS for being so easy to work with, all the amazing musicians and artists who came out to perform, and of course....the crowd!!!
