November 2007, I had just moved to New York and I’m sitting in my boring office and I find this – Act 1 by Jay Electronica and it blew me away. If memory serves me correctly there was a tune going around at the time which Benji played and turned me onto him, and I’ve been hooked ever since.
It’s March 2010 and he is back on Benji’s show after 2 sell-out shows at Jazz Cafe. Exhibit A and C are out, both are insane. It’s almost inspiration enough to start posting again.
Sometime between those dates I saw him support Mos Def at Nokia Theatre, oh yea – March 30, 2008 – still got the flyer! Felt like he needed to work on his stage show then and haven’t seen him since but yea, that’s all, one love Benji B and Jay Electronica. The new order.
