Yesterday, Monday August 2, 2010, GrungeCake Magazine covered Kosha Dillz’s show at Le Poisson Rouge in the West Village of New York City. Joined by some of the greatest entrepreneurs and musicians, we were intrigued by domestic interior design, the acts, the night, and the performance of our friends! Stay tuned for footage.

Kosha Dillz warms up the crowd before he starts his set: tells us who is he, where he’s from, talks to his fans, introduces his band, thanks fellow musician Kyle Rapps for the water, mentions Twitter, pokes fun at the name “Le Poisson Rouge”, and gets right into it!

*A live EPK at its finest. New artists learn from him.

Yesterday, Wednesday July 28, 2010, GrungeCake Magazine presented Burlesque Yes! to the New York City music scene. Burlesques Yes! consists of a sensual live show with Peter Hadar & Long Kiss In Public, a burlesque photo booth shoot, and the sweet sweet flavours of Bite Me!’s sample cheesecake. We are thinking about having another. Will you attend? Enjoy the slideshow below and become a contact. If you missed the promo video for Peter Hadar‘s previous show, kindly watch video below.

Invited by Ibrahim Ahmed III, GrungeCake Magazine visited Rupert Ravens Contemporary on Market Street in Newark, New Jersey for a 24 solo artists project. We watched Ahmed introduce and speak about his artwork, met and learned about new artists, and enjoyed our commute on the NJ Transit. For some of the cool pieces on display, kindly scroll. We will like to take the time to thank Rupert Ravens Contemporary for linking a GrungeCake article on their website. Thank you loads!

This exhibition explores next art as conduit, vessel. These items of depth transport and continue to deliver the goods beyond first glance. In ship to shore communication, a message floats from the mother ship out to a new land, new recipients. Here a circulatory system is launched, imploding the deflective icy surface of contemporary art’s banality. Sentient synapses fire up the biological percolation that underlies perception. Likewise, these artworks spawn a regenerative reciprocation between object and perceiver.
