A number of years ago I had the pleasure of meeting Jamel Shabazz<\/a> while working on a shoot for Honey Magazine<\/em>. I was assisting a stylist – and he was the photographer. We shot on location at Skate Key<\/a> in the Bronx. I had a chance to play a little and roll around the rink in old school skates. It was kinda funny and not very easy. I was so used to inline skates and those things are like trucks for your feet. Anyay, I remember Jamel as a chill, mild mannered guy whose main gig at the time was working as a corrections officer (don’t know if he still is). He wasn’t too enthused to be doing a fashion spread. I guess it was just way too much fuss for him considering his usual photo work. Since then, his highly popular collection of 1980s NYC street portraits has been published as
<\/a> and no doubt continues to find its way into the hands of retro 1980s enthusiasts & nostalgists, hip-hop fans and many other urbanites across the globe.<\/p>\n

Mr. Shabazz along with Joe Conzo and Ernie Paniccioli are having an exhibit<\/a> together at the Xpo @ Gallerie in Dumbo this Friday. The show will be a collection of their individual photo documentations of hip-hop culture from its inception. I DJ’ed an opening at the Xpo about a month or so ago. Along with the usual wine & cheese gallery opening fare, the Xpo also serves up some yummy microbrews AND coffee. Guess they really wanna keep you hoppin’.<\/p>\n
