FILM SCREENING | STRETCH AND BOBBITO: RADIO THAT CHANGED LIVES


I truly can't believe that I will be screening "Stretch And Bobbito" Radio that changed lives" ;I had the honor of meeting them in Dubai couple of months ago

It will be screened in JEDDAH (my hometown) for a very private & special audience. I wanted to rappers to see this film and see the hard work & dedication Stretch & Bobbito put in their work. 

During the 1990s, Stretch and Bobbito introduced the world to an unsigned Nas, Biggie, Wu-Tang, and Big Pun as well as an unknown Jay-Z, Eminem, and the Fugees. The total record sales for all the artists that premiered on their radio show exceed 300 million. 

The late night program had a cult following in the art/fashion world and prison population as well. All would loyally tune in for the humor just as much for the exclusive tunes. Stretch and Bobbito brought a unique audience together, and created a platform that changed music forever. 

Directed by Bobbito Garcia

#Damarshmallow - Instrumental album by "Damar" | Hip-Hop

Damar is definitely one of my favorite producers in #HipHop! He just released his FIRST Instrumental album containing 27 tracks. 

The album combines tracks produced between 2010-2015 and the Arabic sampling is just genius on this one!

Big up to you brother man. This album is always on my eardrums! 


Salute
