Finally..THE SHOW!!!

An awesome crowd came out to support us at Whitworth College….free show, cool weather, great sound..can’t ask for more than that!
After a sick set from Kavet the Catalyst (droppin new joints from “Television Head” and a few classics), Locke and DJ Parafyn showcased Spokane hip-hop at it’s finest…much respect to them for always blessing us when we come through Washington….
Much love to Ali for manning the merchandise table…..for the first time, we had a full lineup of merch---NMB shirts, KTC CD’s, 2 Sentr1c beat CD’s, and even a CD from the homies Vitalsee!!! Be on the lookout for these shirts..coming online soon!
Full table set ups for our tables and MPC’s….the backbone for everything we do!
NMB rocked a 45 minute set..and hopefully we’ll have pics of that soon…all in all, a great show, lots of love, and I hope we can make it back on the road again!!



T Pau in the building...

Temper T hooked it up and opened up his home for us…dope pad on campus fully decked out….I kept mentioning to him how big his kitchen was….large enough for us to rock some practice sessions in.

Jeremiah blessed us with some vocals for the live version of “Silly Girl.” Dude was the truth..much respects Miah!


Give it up for the DJ...

So…we found out quick that DJ Memoirs is most definitely a warm-blooded creature. The temperatures in Spokane definitely had him trippin---but hopefully he’s recovered by now..hahaha…gotta get you some road-legs sooonnnnnn!!!

Is it just me, or does Memoirs with a large hat on look like Stutterin’ Stan?!?!

Sentric and Memoirs…aka The Brothers Grimm... “And it’s like that….cause it’s the Reyes’s!!!”






Hittin' the road with NMB -- day one...

After a cramped plane ride aboard NWA in seats D-E-F (how's that for some hip-hop acronyms?) Wade, well.being and Memoirs arrived in Seattle and headed straight to NECTAR...a dope venue in town. As luck would have it, our 12 hour layover in Sea-town didn't seem so bad once we found out that Braille, Omega Watts and Pigeon John would be rocking it that same night!
Kavet the Catalyst joined us a short while later, and it felt just like home again….strange how we can be 2500 miles away, but it still feels like we never left….took this ill pic that looks like KTC’s camera has a camel-mounted lens…hahaha..

Braille took the stage with a dope live band, singers and fellow-Lightheaded emcee/DJ Omega Watts…dope set overall…and the homie Braille even hooked up the audience with free CD’s…gyeah..
Last but not least, Pigeon John stepped on stage and absolutely killed it. Dude has one of the best live shows I’ve ever seen..and he continues to amaze me. We rocked a few shows with him in the past, and it was good to hook up again and snap a few photos---peep the NMB CD in hand!
After a late-night stop at IHOP, it was back to Sentric’s pad for a few hours of sleep, and then on to Spokane!

I gotta Love Like This for this shirt


it's kinda funny that this NMB shirt helps me go to sleep even though it's a Lightsleeper. Don't miss out on your opportunity to get this fresh tee. as for the show, it was sick. I wish we could have gone to another spot in the northwest, but patience is a virtue. Mahalo and Aloha for all that made this trip possible. peace.

That's right!


LARGE shouts to all the peeps who came to check out the show in Washington. The crowd was on point and really made the show fun. Mahalos to Vi, Miah, Ajax, Locke, Parafyn, and all the Warren delegates who kept it live.
Now, to build anticipation...we got the sneak preview of the BRAND NEW nomasterbacks tees! We only have a few of these shirts left after the Spokane show (big ups to everyone who supported at Whitworth!) and we are going to make them available for online order soon. At this point, we only have these two colors but could be (probably will be) working on new ones. Stay tuned for more infomation about getting your hands on these limited tees. Gyeah!

THANK YOU WHITWORTH!!

Yes, yes...I realize it's a generic picture of Whitworth University, but hey..I was pressed for time and didn't get to upload my own pics (which will be up in the very near future!). ANYWAYS...just wanted to send a HUGE thank you to everyone at Whitworth University for the support and love they showed to NMB last night! The show was incredible, and we owe you guys the world....much blessings! More details on the show and visit to Spokane are on the way! Just wanted to say THANK YOU before we hopped on a plane back home!

enter the new chamber of lightsLeeping



I call him Zealy Boy. Zeal's his name. One of the many new LS peeps to enter earth this year, koltrane came, and well's sweetie coming soon. This kid has to sit through some time frames of practicing lyrics or just listening to beats, constantly. Hopefully he catches the bug for the music I love. If not, it's all good. I respect my dad's music: beattles, simon and garf, james taylor, Kalapana. Hope zeal feels our genre....pause: just had to pick him up cuz buggah is crying.....game on: I'm not sure what his ear will find appealing, just as long as it's not predominantly that radio beezwax. anywhoski, getting ready for spokane in a few days, it's kinda my home away from home (whitworth college, what what). The show should be sick. Stay tuned for video clips of our journey to the BIG ROCK. payce.
