僕と友達は、そごいパーチいったことある！

Went to an awesome beach party with the boys in the summer. Beware of the shirtless Caribbean men!

Passed through Fashion Fuse at local hot spot Bar 57 in Roppongi. There was crazy press, loads of models and celebs. I didn’t snap many pics, but still, decent vibes.

On long weekends in Tokyo, there are a million parties to attend. I checked out a party with special guests, Ninja, a.k.a Die Antwoord from South Africa. Also playing that night, my lovely friend from the duo, Hello Kl!tty. The night got so crazy I promised i would write a real blog about this. Hopefully coming soon. The night was too much fun for the world not to know : p I’ve also posted a video from youtube with some of Ninja’s music. Pretty cool stuff!

Hello Klitty did a wicked fab job playing music that got the crowd pumping. Good vibes, good people!

Ninja himself on the ones and twos!

This video really gave me the vibe of the group. Definitely check out their videos on you tube. Good times!

Check it out..

Long overdue, here are pics from the night!

In the summer I was fortunate to be contacted to appear in my second music video. This time it was with model Saki Sugawara. This is her first video as she tires to break into the music scene here in Japan. I couldn’t upload the pictures until the video was released, so here it is!

Saki getting her Mannequin on.

I appeared on Nihon Terebi for two seconds (literally) in a small acting role for a mini-documentary on world-famous Japanese dancehall queen, Junko. Was a good experience! You can watch the entire video on youtube here. (Japanese only). I also attached it below.

Checkout the picture from my previous post about the TV shoot, here.

cheers!

The Story of Reggae Dancer Junko

There are some days you feel like going out and you don’t know why. I haven’t even been thinking about Halloween so much lately, but I ran into a friend from high school in Jamaica (in Shibuya of all places) a few Fridays ago and he invited me to an early Halloween party. If you had a costume you got in free. What you see below was my costume; a scarf. Needless to say, they weren’t trying to let me in, but a DJ took a liking to me and put me on a guest list. Birdimusprime in Japan! I hung out with an interesting crew and took some pics of the Party, which was held at the Trump Room. Decent music, crazy costumes and an early preview of the madness to come for Tokyo Halloween 2010. What’s going to happen this year? We’ll see. Check My Jamaican in Japan TV videos for the video I shot last year and read my 2009 Tokyo Halloween article. I think this year is going to be BANANAS.

A pirate scarf isn’t necessarily the ultimate costume to use to try and get into a party for free, but somehow, I winged it. Ladies, meet Captain Black Sparrow, but then again, i’d be number two, there was already a Captain Black Sparrow in attendance : p

Captain Black Sparrow got the most attention, with the Ringling brother’s fellow coming in at a close number two. With nothing but a scarf, I think I just scared people for most of the night.

Once you’ve lived in Japan for a while, the words “going out anywhere” and “convenience store” become synonymous. There isn’t a night you will party without making pit stops and these places, called “conbinis” for drinks. As tipsy as most of these guys already appeared, we made the stop anyway, running into a few clowns… literally.

Inside the party there was a sort of retro circus theme, I guess this explained why a lot of people were dressed like clowns or circus acts. Cool vibe, the place was chock full of people.

Four floors with a roatation of DJs. The top floor was the best, white a white decor and a bloody red theme.

She wasn’t in costume, but like a lot of people during Halloween, this girl was letting it loose on a pole. On a regular table. Not sure what that has to do with Barnum and Bailey’s circus. The Amazing pole dancing lady? : p

 

I look forward to seeing what can happen this Halloween 2010!

On a lazy sunday afternoon, I checked out a rooftop party in the trendy upscale district of Aoyama. Didn’t stay very long, but here are some pics…

Goodbye Tokyo summer.

Some nice views of the city from up here.

A rooftop, a ginormous Blue skateboarding bear, Japanese celebs and Michael Jackson where in attendance at the Freemaga 3rd year anniversary party.

People were treated to celeb style photos upon entering. The theme was blue shirts, meaning myself and four other people were wearing blue : p

Tons of free Condoms were available. But alas, this is Japan….

Chilling with a friend and the creators of Free Maga magazine.

Fellow Tokyo blogger Foo 4 Thought was in attendance.

Nothing like a Japanese Mike to get things popping.

Big blue skateboarding bear pretty interesting.
