We got a very special treat tonight at the screening for David Axelrod Live at Royal Festival Hall – out on DVD. Usually, we’d opt to catch it at home but how can you pass up an evening where the man himself was there for a Q+A afterwards! The movie is a beautiful treat for the ears and Mr. Axelrod was a riot. The kind of old school cat you hope to encounter. Very inspiring fellow. & if you’re not hip to his music (or if you don’t know that you’re hip to his music) – just check out some of Dr. Dre’s sampling credits… among others. He’s the truth.

Cats be calling these hip-hop artists legends, when niggas only put out 3-4 records a long time ago. This dude’s got around 30 albums, been living longer than hip-hop’s been around… and he’s still going strong at it! That’s some legendary shit fo’ real!
