Paradime is traveling to Miami this week for spring break to rock some parties. If you’re down there for spring break, these are the places you should be!

From Thursday to Sunday was on smash. CIAA stands for Central
Intermediate Athletic Association) but everyone who has been or know about HBCU schools knows what
this is about. Having fun. Almost every celebrity in hip-hop music and
fashion was in Charlotte. From Diddy to Nelly partying.

Friday @ Founders Hall- Bank Of America.
With MAZ Entertainment. + Dj Pyro.

Had to be at least 3000+ in attendance, partying hard, the atmosphere
and the venue were incredible and the women were unbelievable. Played
everything from Jukebox heroes remixes to Wale.

Saturday Day Party- BlackFinns- The Epicenter.
with Culture 19

The day party was crazy just because when I got there at 12 to setup,
people were already lined up. First two hours classic and new RnB and
Soul…. Everything from Carlita Durand to En Vogue… Last two hours
were smash time, running thru mashing out jams. Honestly it was crazy
to see people partying in the sun. Straight dope. I highly doubt
anyone from this party made it to a night party. But I did…

On to the next one…

Saturday Night- Whisky River w/ Baby From Cash Money and Bow Wow
Inner Circle Entertainment.

I  sat down for 3 hours just to get back up and mash out once
again. You woulda figured people would have been burned out….nope
9:30 and it was almost at capacity. The club and atmosphere was so
crazy I had Creative Silence come along for the ride and highlight the
night with dope camera angle shots. The Women were incredible and the
mood was hype!

The pictures speak for themselves. Next up I’m gonna recap the Jay-z BP3 afterparty I DJed at Lotus.  Stay tuned.

DJs SK and Paradime will be DJing the third annual Ram Battle/Hip-Hop summit at Winston Salem State University on March 19th . There will be a B-Boy, DJ and MC battle and special performance by roc nation artist J.Cole. This event was dope last year and boasted special guest DJ Cool Herc The Godfather of Hip-Hop! If you’re in the area make sure to check it out!

If you can’t make the battle and have some time earlier in the afternoon there will be a discussion panel, also featuring J. Cole:

Here’s a fresh new joint by Fonzworth Bentley (@cooloutrageous) featuring scratches by our homie Mike Dangerous (@djmikedangerous).  VERY dope message on this joint, and those cuts are crispy, though I’d expect no less from either Fonzworth or Mike.

Forge’s sidenote:  Danger’s mixtapes are some of the best I’ve ever heard.  Make sure you check for him if you haven’t already.

The CIAA basketball tournament is coming up at the end of the month and it’s always a huge affair for Charlotte and NC in general.  People come from all areas of the country to attend CIAA (including quite a few of your favorite celebrities) and it’s not just for basketball;  There are tons of parties both day and night (no kid cudi), for people to attend.  Making a decision on which parties to go to while you’re in Charlotte for the weekend can be a difficult task.  After all, with so much going on how are you supposed to know where to go to have a good time?

Easy, you party with us, that’s how!  DJ Paradime has you covered for both Friday and Saturday nights.  Here’s the rundown:

Friday Night (2/26): DJ Paradime @ Founder’s Hall for “Founders Hall Frenzy” (presented by Maz Entertainment)

Saturday Night (2/27): DJ Paradime @ Whiskey River for “The CIAA Main Event – hosted by Baby from Cash Money” (presented by Inner Circle Events)

Paradime is no stranger to spinning CIAA events so make sure to check these events out because we guarantee satisfaction.

DJ SK will be rocking the “One Small Step!” Step Show and After Party this Friday February 12th with special guest host Special ED!If you’re in the triad area of NC make sure you check out both the show and the party after.

Big up to ScottCaresNC for bringing us in on this event, and make sure to check their site to purchase tickets and for more information (personally I like this foundation’s dedication to both technology and the arts!)

Here’s a fresh new joint from an all star NC cast.  This is from the homie Diablo Archer’s upcoming release “I Fly Archer” and features fellow NC emcees MEDIAN, KHill, Dasan Ahanu, and Edgar Allen Floe. Production by E Haywood. Give a listen below or DOWNLOAD HERE [right click and save]

This is good NC music for your ears.  Every single emcee on this track can hold their own against your favorites.  And of course we had to throw this on since they’re talking about “everyday heroes” – apparently NC is full of heroes!

*PS. that’s the same sample I used for the track with Flu and Royce

Yes! Weekly features DJ Paradime in this week’s edition of the Triad DJ Profile! Thanks again to Ryan Snyder!

Due to the overwhelmingly positive response to the first Mix Master Arts DJ Battle we have decided to turn it into an event series with four more events added to the roster. The first of battle will take place Sunday April 4th at The Breakfast Club in Charlotte, NC. In addition to the Charlotte battle, two more events will be held in 2010 (one in the triangle area and one in Asheville) and a “Grand Championship” that will feature the first and second place winners from each area competing for the title of “Grand Champion” at the end of the year back at Greene St in Greensboro.

If you would like to compete in any of the battles or sponsor any of these events please contact DJSK at djsk101[at]gmail.com. We are excited to provide a forum for new and experienced DJs to showcase their talents and engage in a little friendly competition.

Once again, thank you all for the tremendous amount of support at our first event and we are looking forward to the competitions to come!
The JukeBox Heroes and DJ Soden
