STR8 EVENTS: THE FADER 68 ISSUE RELEASE PARTY x THE DREAM

STR8 EVENTS: THE FADER 68 ISSUE RELEASE PARTY x THE DREAM

Last night ya gurl, LexAve, randomly attended The Fader magazine’s #68 issue release party at the Hudson Hotel in NYC. The event was sponsored by Budweiser and Def Jam. The basement venue was full of hipsters with beer bottles in hand…guaranteed good ‘ole time. Had the chance to reconnect with some of back in the day colleagues and meet some wonderfully snazzy people. But the fun came to a screeching halt when I found out The Dream was set to perform. To room full of hipsters…really?! Who knew this was his target audience. I know I didn’t. Anywhoo, as the night progressed- ya gurl kicked with galpal Zunnania of Zunnania Designs and Parrish of Sobs for the majority of the night cracking jokes and sippin’ on some bubbly…(I hate beer!) At about 10:15pm or so, the DJ went from playing electronica hip hop joints to full blown The Dream mode. WHAT?! Ok…10 minutes later, The Dream took the stage. He kicked off his set with “Ditch That“, followed by “Panties to the Side” (GASP), then “Love King” and finished off with “Make-up Bag”. Not only was I vexed at this “Teddy Graham” look-a-like only performing four songs and bouncing- he was straight up WACK! No stage presence whatsoever. I mean just ’cause you’re “ill” with the pen & pad doesn’t mean you’re meant for the stage. Not to mention “Panties To The Side” really threw me for a loop. I haven’t copped Love King and surely after his lackluster performance last night I don’t intend to..I wont even waste my time or disk space downloading the album #imjustsayin

On a side-note, can you imagine lil’ 5 or 6 year-olds dancing and singing along to pull your “Panties to the side“…SERIOUSLY! THIS IS BLASPHEMY. I love you Fader magazine, but The Dream was NOT a good look!

Stay tuned for videos to come. In the meantime enjoy these pics…
