Snoop Dogg's 1st Annual Wellness Retreat (Video)


Snoop Dogg took over 4/20 weekend with his First Annual Snoop's Wellness Retreat in Seattle (4/19) and Denver (4/20). Snoop brought the house down with sold-out shows featuring special guests Wiz Khalifa, YG, DJ Mustard and Smoke DZA. The Retreat invited fans to “Inhale. Exhale. Recharge,” in celebration of the legalization of the recreational use of cannabis in Washington and Denver.

In conjunction with Snoop Dogg, Cashmere Agency, a Los Angeles based lifestyle-marketing agency, created and executed this landmark event around Snoop’s vision for the retreat, and enlisted event sponsors such as Grenco Science, (who recently partnered with Snoop Dogg for a limited edition Double G Series of portable vaporizers), among other brands.

I was recently inspired by Johnny Depp's character 'George Jung' in the movie "Blow." It ends with a quote from this monologue: "But I force a smile, knowing that my ambition far exceeded my talent".

DaVinci & Sweet Valley - Ghetto Cuisine (Mixtape)


Ghetto Cuisine is a potent strain of hybrid California bass from Davinci and Sweet Valley (aka Joel and Nathan Williams). Fans of both artists' past work might find the pairing unlikely at first, but these low end theorists are true kindred spirits. On Ghetto Cuisine, the SV bros take their melted-Nintendo-cartridge aesthetic in awesomely dark new directions, setting a black-lit stage for Davinci's sharpest street narratives yet, and the end result is twelve THC-fueled trunk rattlers featuring guest appearances from 100s and Main Attrakionz. Grab a fork and get busy.

Blaison Maven - Live From Crenshaw



Produced by Special Deliv & Soraya La Pread. We have apparently been sleeping on Blaison Maven. The young Los Angeles native has been sending us his music for a while now, but due to the amount of emails we receive per day (a lot of non-West Coast material in the mix), we usually skim them and thus miss some dope music every now and then. Anyway, we're glad we're finally on to Blaison Maven's music and happy to share it with you guys.

This track is part of his new series, #2MonthsofReign, in which he will release a new track every week. Stay tuned for more music and don't sleep on Blaison Maven.

Mistah FAB - Get Loud (Warriors Anthem)



You probably won't believe this because of all the bandwagon fans, but as a young guy growing up in LA I hated the Lakers and rooted for the Clippers (underdog thing I guess). Nowadays I find myself a bigger Lakers fan than a Clippers fan, but I still support both teams. So sorry Mistah FAB, but GO CLIPPERS! (By the way, how ironic is it that this track is of low quality despite the title being "Get Loud?" Haha)
