All the way live from the 215. Philly Recap.

So on Thursday I touched down in Illadelph for the weekend to do some work

Check the view from my Room. Good ole Philly Smog.

After I arrived I linked with my homie Dj Phillie Blunt. My first stop was South Street for Ishkabibble’s. Ish is one of the only spots that you can get Chicken Phillies in the city. The old school spots are all beef.

Cheese Fries are the thing in Philly! Hmmm….

Later that night I went to this spot called Letage where Philly Blunt was spinning. The spot is kinda low key, but fly. I liked it.

Phil introduced me to these ladies who were all cousins. Shout out to Don who I didn’t get a picture off.

After Letage I went over to Silk City to meet the homie Tayyib. This was def the Hipster spot. This is what it looked like when the DJ dropped that MIA record! The place was packed and dumb hot. The Hipsters in Philly def party hard!

Friday Night Me, Semp, and Parable hit up M Room for the Monthly Body Rock Party. The party is run by the Illvibe Crew which consists of Dj Panik, Phillie Blunt, Lil Dave, and Dj Static. They’ve been doing this party for 8 years in Philly now. It goes down every last Friday of the month. If your ever in Philly check it out.

Couldn’t leave Philly without getting by Genos / Pats. Genos was in the news Heavy last year for refusing to serve customers who didn’t speak English. Let me say these two things. A. Genos is in a Heavy Latino neighborhood and B. You dont need to speak to English to order food there. They only serve two things: Cheesesteaks and Cheese Fries. You can point and order that. Lol. Anyway… I was telling Parable I’ll always remember Genos from being in the Boyz 2 Men Video “Motown Philly”

Check the Boyz 2 Men “Motown Philly” Video in case you forgot! Classic Material

Now let me say this, Genos be on some other shit. They have a big memorial up that has the police officer that was allegedly murdered by Mumia Abu Jamal, then they have nerve to have this book posted. Booo.. Thats another story that we could talk about days, for those who dont know. Google “Mumia Abu Jamal” and see what you find.

I took it over to Pats which is right across the street and got it in over there. Both of the spots are super Old School and they dont take Credit Cards to this day!

The corner is 9th and Passyunk.

This mural is called “The Sound of Philly.” How come they aint no Black People on the wall. Isn’t Frankie Beverly and Maze from Philly?

While walking down South Street we say this dude on a ladder with a projector, so we stopped to see what he was up too. Turned out it was Philly Graf Legend Pose 2. We chopped up with dude for a min. He was working on a Advertisement for Pabst Blue Ribbon. He was just getting started on the Sketch when we saw him. Would like to be around to see how it turns out.

Nothing like hitting Ritas for the fresh Custard or Italian Icees! This is a east coast / Upnorth Staple. Try to have one whenever Im in the area. I suggest you do the same.
