DJ Insomnia’s Premier Sessions – NYC R&B EDITION

It’s been a very, very long time since I’ve heard a mix that had majority of  my favorite R&B songs that I used to vibe to.  DJ Insomnia’s mix brought back many, many amazing, great memories.

I love 90s R&B and I’m glad DJ Insomnia decided to put this together. He also threw in some stuff from the 2000 era as well to mix things up.  Definitely, a nice breath of fresh air from all these computer made sets I’ve been hearing lately…thanks DJ Insomnia for recording and sharing this set.

An Urban Nerd Video Episode: The Daily Show & Clinton Street Baking Co.

My good friend, VJ aka DJ Insomnia invited me to go to the April 4th taping of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Unfortunately, going through security there was like the airport, and they were on us like vultures if we took pictures or video recorded anything of the set (I have no clue why). I did catch a blurry picture, but I also did get caught and got in trouble. Surprisingly, they didn’t do anything, and I got to sit through the taping.

Afterwards, we went to the famous Clinton Street Baking Co. – they’re really known for their pancakes, and they were featured on the Food Network not so long ago. Pretty fun-packed day!
