GRAMMY parties, Jill Scott DVD + Erykah Badu

GRAMMY Weekend in LA was filled with what we coin as the Soul Diaspora Movement. Pre-Grammy Events like Sounds of Change with Jerry Lee Lewis, Chrisette Michele, Musiq Soulchild (perfecting Bob Marley), Ryan Shaw, DJ Hapa and others celebrated the Music Preservation Project and Living Histories event based on the music for social change and the Civil Rights Movement.

Friday night Kiss N’ Grind Live put on by Garth Trinidad and GRAMMY nominee Vikter Duplaix featured The Brand New Heavies, Caron Wheeler of Soul II Soul, Eric Roberson and DJ Rashida, a great musical journey!

The 5th Annual Roots Jam Session on Saturday sponsored by Rock The Vote featured The Roots playing with the likes of Seal, Doug E Fresh w/ MC Lyte, Bilal, Corrine Bailey Ray, J*DaVeY, Alice Smith, Travis Barker, Patrick Stump of Fall Out Boy, Raheem DeVaughn, Jimi James and other guests.
