UK Dispatch: Kanye and friends have a G.O.O.D time
Posted by Miss Info under Uncategorized[12] Comments
(UPDATE: here’s a photo from the party in London, peeped over at DJ Semtex’s blog, he was all over the show and the afterparty! check out his page for more photos)
big up to UK reporter Archna Sawjani and reader Semothy Jones. Both sent over their accounts of tonites G.O.O.D. Music Glow in the Dark afterparty in London at the Inc club at o2. Sounds like it was amazing!
Archna says:
“Kanye West, Nas, Consequence, (new signee) Mr Hudson, Tony Williams, Kid Cudi, Big Sean, De la Soul, Green Lantern, Mos Def, Damon Albarn from Blur, Will.I.Am… All on stage together just jamming/ freestying… Each artist had a go to rock the mic.
Consequence grabbed Kid Cudi and said something along the lines of ‘G.O.O.D. Music family, fuck what you heard’ to imply there was no beef.
It was a showcase night for all good music acts… Big sean. Mr hudson, tony williams, kid cudi , consequence…Kanye said he wanted to make a movement like damon dash did. But it turned into this massive party on stage with all artists performing. Was super crazy.
Nas and green lantern was here from rock the bells (london date happened on sunday). No idea why De la Soul, Will I Am, Mos Def and David Albarn were there.
It was just one of those crazy nights…. A fluke I think.”

All on one tiny afterparty stage whey Nas did ‘Nas Is Like,’ ‘They Shootin,’ an more, about 4 tracks in total, De La about 2, Will I Am did some crazy freestyle and Mos Def performed the mighty ‘1 2 333333, its Mos Def a Talib kwaliii iiiiiii.” lol
What a crazy night for London, with an arter party of about 100 people…”
LOL. I have no idea what an “arter” party is, but it def sounds like everyone had an amazing time. I can’t wait to see some footage from the event!
And its nice to see that Cons and Kid have called a truce for now.
