So about a month ago, I had my first showcase ever for my photography in DC with a great company RAWartists.

BassLoveTreble Show at Treehouse Lounge

Our homie, Brandon Charles, has been busy with his new duo group BassLoveTreble. We're eagerly awaiting his mixtape Jamil Abello. But until then, the UxU team took a trip to D.C. this past Saturday to see him perform at the Treehouse Lounge, and he KILLED it.

I've watched Brandon evolve as a lyricist and as an artist since our sophomore year and Saturday night I've never been more impressed. His lyrics are pure truth and they had me thinking for the rest of the night. I'm excited to see his new work and I can't wait to shoot some videos for them.

Take a look below at some pictures from the show.

Ray Slice in the building!

The UxU team sees big things in store BassLoveTreble in the near future and we can't wait to admire the final products. Until then, Be Yourself, Be Different.

Back in August my good friends from Sky Tribe invited me out to shoot the second annual Dollar And A Dream music festival in Greensboro North Carolina. Knowing how fun it was last year and knowing my good friend C. Pitt was performing, I of course said yes. C. Pitt just released the video his team shot that day so I decided to share with you all on here and show you some of the pictures I took as well.

Greensboro Social

About a month before I left North Carolina to return home for the summer, my good friend Daniel from Socially Incorporated invited us to be a part of a new event he wanted to start throwing once a month, called the Greensboro Social where Street wear brands, jewelry makers, and other artists alike will come together sell their products, network, and have fun in the process. So this past weekend the team crammed into my Scion XA (We call it The Blueberry) and headed down to Greensboro. Needless it say it was a very fun weekend. Check out the pictures I took at the event and also the video that give a glimpse of what we got into that day before things got wild.

Met a lot of cool people and got to see some old friends. Always a blast in Greensboro.
