This Tuesday Biggie Tea and I (Joe E Fresh) will be laying down the entire Black Kids album at Mark’s. It’s probably going to start late (around 11) since I have a work function that night, but expect it to be live, as in awesome! Not sure if we’ll play the whole thing all the way through or throw some other jams on in between.
$1 pbr $2 draft $3 jager all night.
Check out this article from Rueters that’s running on MSNBC: Black Kids are all right with blog buzz (thanks for the tip Jason!).
Building a long-lasting career out of a Web phenomenon won’t be easy, but Columbia plans to put significant muscle behind the record. Black Kids will be highly visible around street date, including appearances on “Late Show With David Letterman” (July 24), “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” (July 30) and noncommercial KCRW Santa Monica, Calif.’s “Morning Becomes Eclectic” (July 28).
and finally
A proper North American tour begins September 19 in Jacksonville.
Also I’d like to address a comment left on Sunday that, in part, reads:
the black kid’s aren’t the makings of any “modern musical legend†and i don’t think they’ve set out to be. they’re good at what they do, but no need to overly gush because they’re from jacksonville. that doesn’t really say much for the actual music.
I think there is every reason to gush. They’re bringing much needed positive press to our city. Especially in a segment where we get little if no press, lifestyle publications like music magazines and late night television shows. Anything we can do to generate buzz and show people that Jacksonville isn’t all greyhound racing and sprawl is fine by me and deserves attention and notice from the people in this city.
