SOHH ON THE SCENE

Interview With Bruce Willis

Q-Tip, Bruce Willis, Busta Rhymes, Ice-T, Reverend Al Sharpton and the Hip-Hop Summit Action Network's Benjamin Chavis attended "The Hip-Hop Project" premiere at New York City's City Cinemas earlier this week(04/30/07). The film follows Kazi, a youth mentor who helps at-risk kids produce an album. Willis and Queen Latifah reportedly landed financial help to the project. The SOHH team was fortunate enough to catch Tip, Ice and Willis at the Red Carpet.

Shortly after the screening, SOHH On The Scene Model Sam Ed and I headed to Club Stereo for the after party. Some of you may remember that Pitbull challenged Sam Ed by monopolizing photo opps at the recent Cuervoton.

We also hit up Bone Thugs N Harmony's Listening Party at Crash Mansion the next day (05/01). Thank God for that open bar, because the Bone listening was a sword fight, a straight up dude fest. Cats almost got it on. Pause! A fight almost broke out. After dapping Krayzie Bone, we just headed to the King Party.

Later that night (05/01), King Magazine celebrated the release of its issue featuring Rosci of "106 & Park" at Manor in New York City. We left before getting the chance to meet the guest of honor, but bumped into Toccarra and chopped it up with friends and colleagues before calling it a night.
