Shout out to @stubbsthechiefrocka and the whole @snapback_live crew for having me come DJ with you guys. #tbt - #Repost @stubbsthechiefrocka • • • • • Farewell #SnapbackNoho (2 of 3) Little known fact, Snapback actually started at the @verdugobar but we can consider that the Prequel movie. But I hit up @djbstang and @djeverede about spinning there with me for free drinks and to play the classic hiphop that we all knew and loved. After our short stint there, I got a call of fate from Nicole C. (We call her the First Lady of Snapback). She said she's been wanting to do an old school hiphop night. I said I'm already doing one at the Verdugo bar. She asked, what's it called? I said "Snapback". She said, I love it, can you bring it here to The Federal Bar? I said Suuuuuuurreee and the rest is history as they say..... We had a lot of fun times in those first 3 years for sure. I think it was just what we all needed. A lot of my DJ friends were invited to come through and drop a set because it was therapy for them. It was a breath of fresh air that got them out of playing the top 40 and EDM that they were mandated to play at their regular gigs. Over those years we caught some local buzz as the new gig in town that was a cool spot to play where you didn't have to worry too much about bottle popping or dress code but had more of a feel good house party vibe. I always asked my guys to model the vibes of the early days of the legendary party @do_over Over those years where the party's buzz started to hit, I got a chance to connect with friends old and new. Some of my fondest, most proud moments all happened at this special place. And for once, it was something that me and my team created together to bring to the people that really felt like we were accomplishing something great. I also had some of my most embarrassing moments here where I had to one time get carried out on my birthday ... ouch haha. But needless to say, I continue to appreciate the CORE Team of @snapback_live for helping carry on the brand throughout these years. @djbstang @djeverede @djparispaul @djicyice @djremark @djorion310 @treklife @toquon_tha_mc @boogiebla @freshredding (at The Federal NoHo) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1wzo3DASKO/?igshid=7s7knoxlyufi
