For immediate release

"Never appearing in Montreal, it was a no brainer for this legendary MC to play our after-party. Also recently added to the Saturday night lineup, Montreal's up and coming mash-up DJ's,Team Canada.

  Born in Staten Island, NY, and raised in the park hill projects, Raekwon is presently one of the most popular Wu-Tang Clan members in the game. Raekwon may not have achieved the solo stardom of his fellow Wu-Tang Clan mates Method Man or Ol' Dirty Bastard, but along with Genius/GZA and frequent partner Ghostface Killah, he's done some of the most inventive, critically acclaimed work outside the confines of the group. Also nicknamed the Chef (because he's "cookin' up some marvelous sh*t to get your mouth watering"), Raekwon joined the Staten Island, NY-based Wu-Tang collective in the early '90s and played an important role on their groundbreaking late-1993 debut album, Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers).

  Following his 1994 debut single, "Heaven and Hell," his own solo debut, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, appeared in 1995; while it didn't sell on the level of Method Man's Tical, singles like "Ice Cream" and "Criminology" earned him a strong reputation in the hip-hop underground. Moreover, the album received near-unanimous critical praise for its evocative, image-rich storytelling and cinematic Mafia obsession.

The " Zoo York’s Am Getting Paid" is an international skateboard contest in its 3rd year running.  Held on September 22nd through the 24th, this years total purse is at a whopping $15,000 USD.  This years contest is scheduled to be the biggest Eastern amateur contest to date with over 200 riders participating from around the world.

The " Zoo York’s Am Getting Laid" after-party is on Saturday, September 23rd, doors open at 10pm.

This will be a weekend not to miss!

 

The tickets are available at: Underworld, Off the Hook, Universe, Empire, South Parc, Juste pour Rire, Clubzone.com and Admission

I was readin SBC Skateboarder (late summer 2004 issue) at work today, and they were talkin about Federations of sk8ers, and keeping it underground, and such. Lots of people in the mag were bitchin about how sk8in should be kept solely for the hardest of the hardcore, an equal amount of people were bitchin about how it should be in the olympics, and how the corporate side could help it. As I was reading I noticed, the people bitchin the most don't even give a f*ck about sk8in! They are all theese huge pros that are making money off the sh*t, and sayin how it should stay underground....that dont seem to underground to me! The other side was corporate companies that want to make money off it, and essentially "sell" it like ne other sport.....doesnt seem too much like sk8in. Whether Sk8in becomes an Olympic sport or not, I dont think neone shoudl trully care! I mean sure, its a hard sport, that takes skill, talent, and dedication, and yeah maybe puttin it in the Olympics will take the essence of sk8in being a rebel thing away.I say that if you sk8 to get famous, its for the wrong reason. If you sk8 to be a rebel in society, its for the wrong reason. I say that if you sk8 to make yourself feel good, then those are the only people who should be sk8in, and honestly, I doubt those people will care what a bunch of corporate machines do with sk8in, cuz I know myself, personally, will be happy as long as I have my sk8 under me. Sk8 for yourselves!
