Just another reason to take a really really long flight to a prohibitively expensive spot with an insane amount of extravagances including a man-made island in the shape of a palm tree….

?uestlove says him and Dave Chappelle have been mulling over a Block Party sequel…

“More excitingly, [?uestlove] also hinted that a certain mercurial-but-brilliant comedian might be considering a sequel to one of his greatest projects. “He wants to redo Block Party,” ?uestlove told us when we asked after Dave Chappelle. “I saw Dave the night of Erykah [Badu]’s birthday party in Dallas.” And where would a second installation of Dave Chappelle’s Block Party occur? L.A.? Illadelph? “Over in Dubai,” said ?uestlove. “Except he wants to spice it up a bit and have us perform with a 60-piece orchestra. He’s just like, ‘Promise me you’re going to rhyme over Star Wars, that’s all I want.’” (from the NYMag vulture)

kewl!

Random sidenote…..a few years ago a friend of mine told me Diddy was thinking of jumping into the flying money booth that is Dubai. By opening an amusement park called Diddy Land.

I did not make that up.
