Some of my set from 1st Friday Chicago at Hard Rock Hotel at the beginning of the month
On The Clock
About 24hrs (give or take) til the biggest event of my life, thus far… For the past 8 events at Tantrik my team has had the vision of revolutionizing the party scene in Chicago… To take it back to smiles and genuine good times for an economically affordable price in a safe environment. We’ve gone above and beyond our expectations for TGIFresh. The reason behind our success is the beautiful people of Chicago.
We want to give our city the absolute best, and push ourselves to the limit to make each #TGIFresh event bigger and better. The best DJ’s in Chicago (in my opinion); 33 1/3 & Tim Buck 2 have been featured as well as international branded DJ, Mick Boogie… But, we haven’t stopped there…
Literally in a matter of hours - hip hop icon, Jermaine Dupri will be 30 thousand feet in the air making his way to our beloved city to grace the turntables for the 1st time in an urban setting…. I’m dumb excited about this! This guy has been in the presence of some of music’s best; from hip hop (Jay Z & Biggie) to R&B/Pop (Usher & Janet Jackson) to Soul (Anthony Hamilton)… At the age of 19, JD did the impossible and took the music world by storm with So So Def, he laid the blue print for Puff!
To give you this ultimate experience it took a lot of sacrifice and planning. My team are not dope boys, we don’t have investors, we’re not backed by a spirit brand, BUT we ARE efficient and diligent in our efforts to continue to provide quality events for those old enough to know better, but young enough to do better.
NO it won’t cost $30+… Actually the price WILL NOT exceed $20 and that’s been consistent with the #TGIFresh format…
In closing, YOU, the regular people of Chicago have made us, #TGIFreshChicago dope! So in return, we want to continue to give you things you’ve yet to experience and we have more in store… We’re less than a year old as an entity and SoChi & Royalte are just getting started!
Now, YOU’RE “On The Clock” RSVP will close tomorrow afternoon!

Money Ain’t A Thang – Until It Is
Wanna play the Good News / Bad News Game! No? Me either…but it’s happening soooo…
Good News:
- We got JD. Thee Jermaine Dupri … Producer/Songwriter/Rapper/Discoverer of talent such as Kris Kross (who at one point had me looking like a damn fool wearing backwards pants and jerseys), Da Brat (The first chick to put the 606__ zip code on a national map), Bow Wow (like…when he was a tiny lil version of a MidWest Snoop Dogg for pre-teens…before he went crazy), Xscape (whose hook to their first single I can still say verbatim…”Kick off ya shoes and relax ya feet” …AND spawned two famous “housewives” - Kandi and Tiny), and let’s not forget his work with Usher and Nick Cannon’s own Mariah “Mimi” Carey whom he helped reenergize the careers of…(no comment on Janet, Ms. Jackson if you nasty). He’s added DJ to his resume a long time ago, but for some reason, the masses in the Chi haven’t been privy to hear a blend from Mr. Dupri yet. I mean, a few private events here and there for those with the “bread, cheese, & dough” to shell out, but nothing for those 9-to-5ers that just enjoy good music. Until now, my friends. Until now.
- My personal favorite “good” in the good news is that JD is combining with Chi’s own, J-I. You may call him Jay Illa (I call him Script or Jimmy Panama aka Mr. Best Wedding Speech Ever for those keeping tabs). For the record, TGIFresh was started for people that wanted to go to a place, have a ball, get drunk, and last but most importantly, get lost in the music! The Fckn MUSIC, folks! Only the best DJs: Every party. Every time. So when you combine the musical guru behind SoSoDef (JD) with the sound coordinator and musical director of TGIFresh (Jay Illa), that’s when you get SoSoFresh.
- As for the title, “Money Ain’t A Thang…Until It Is…”, I don’t know about you folks but, I’m in the 99% (#LetThemBoysOccupy). Therefore, for me and hardworking individuals like me, we’re sticking at $20 for any advance RSVP because if you do your part and let us know you wanna rock with us, we’ll do our part in doing our best to accommodate. And for my people in the deep, DEEP 99% (this could be due to life circumstance or just some anticipated hellified Black Friday shopping), we have a deal where you can pay 8 BUCKS between the hours of 8P - 9P every night through Thursday. Why $8? Because half of TGIFresh (SoChiPM) just turned 8 years old and we’re corny like that.
Bad News:
- We won’t be wearing president masks this time…well, I haven’t quite ruled this out yet. Halloween was a helluva drug. See the vid below for evidence.
- I will NOT be as drunk as I was last time. Some sh*t is just unhealthy. OR
- I WILL be as drunk as I was last time, if not drunker. Some sh*t is unhealthy but just good for the soul and my youth.
See that wasn’t so bad, now was it? ”Fix up, look sharp.”
