video: Mr. Bentley’s Fireside Chat
Feb 24th
Here’s a fresh new joint by Fonzworth Bentley (@cooloutrageous) featuring scratches by our homie Mike Dangerous (@djmikedangerous). VERY dope message on this joint, and those cuts are crispy, though I’d expect no less from either Fonzworth or Mike.
Forge’s sidenote: Danger’s mixtapes are some of the best I’ve ever heard. Make sure you check for him if you haven’t already.
Event: CIAA Tour w/ DJ Paradime
Feb 15th
The CIAA basketball tournament is coming up at the end of the month and it’s always a huge affair for Charlotte and NC in general. People come from all areas of the country to attend CIAA (including quite a few of your favorite celebrities) and it’s not just for basketball; There are tons of parties both day and night (no kid cudi), for people to attend. Making a decision on which parties to go to while you’re in Charlotte for the weekend can be a difficult task. After all, with so much going on how are you supposed to know where to go to have a good time?
Easy, you party with us, that’s how! DJ Paradime has you covered for both Friday and Saturday nights. Here’s the rundown:
Friday Night (2/26): DJ Paradime @ Founder’s Hall for “Founders Hall Frenzy” (presented by Maz Entertainment)
Saturday Night (2/27): DJ Paradime @ Whiskey River for “The CIAA Main Event – hosted by Baby from Cash Money” (presented by Inner Circle Events)

Diablo Archer – Everyday Hero (first in flight remix)
Feb 1st
Here’s a fresh new joint from an all star NC cast. This is from the homie Diablo Archer’s upcoming release “I Fly Archer” and features fellow NC emcees MEDIAN, KHill, Dasan Ahanu, and Edgar Allen Floe. Production by E Haywood. Give a listen below or DOWNLOAD HERE [right click and save]
Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.
This is good NC music for your ears. Every single emcee on this track can hold their own against your favorites. And of course we had to throw this on since they’re talking about “everyday heroes” – apparently NC is full of heroes!
*PS. that’s the same sample I used for the track with Flu and Royce
