Cub Picks:
– Jeff – JeffBearapalooza – Strip Tease Featuring Cat-Eyez – Bigg Nugg
No seriously, I’m not kidding. I do get myself into hip hop on occasion but I’ve seen the light on what this actually is. So, anyway, I was talking with Swin Dunbar, you know, one of those Bearapalooza Bears, and he asked me if I had any Bigg Nugg, music. I was like, hmm, no I don’t. I should check it out. I have to say that I’m not really that big of a hip hop fan, but I do dabble occassionally . . . then I listened to the song Strip Tease on Nugg’s album La Revolucion
Hey, and Nugg is busy this year with two tours. Check out both Bearapalooza and the Unity Tour.
The Unity Tour 2008 is a homo-grown, national gay hip-hop tour. The main goal of the tour is to bring people together using the power of this exploding new music genre called gay hip-hop. The tour will bring together everyone in the GLBT community during a night of great music and entertainment.
The Unity Tour is taking it’s message out to the streets once again. The Tour’s headliner, BiggNugg, has received many great articles and reviews in magazines such as Curve Magazine, A Bears Life Magazine and many more! The success of last year’s HomoRevolution Tour has helped form a foundation for this years tour.
The Unity Tour will also feature Atlanta’s “DaLyrical” and Columbus Ohio’s “Unecc” (pronounced Unique). These two talented lesbian MC’s will bring their high energy stage performances each and every night. Over the years, both of these performers have taken the stages at Pride Celebration around the US. Other special guests are also scheduled to appear
throughout the tour!
Come join us in Houston on April 18th at 9pm. We will be performing at Super Happy Fun Land, 3801 Polk Street Houston, TX 77003
*** I had the opportunity to meet Jose – a.k.a. BiggNugg – when he was in Houston last year for the HomoRevolution Tour. Mind you, Hip-Hop isn’t necessarily a genre i’m immediately drawn to. HOWEVER – I have to say – they put on a GREAT show. And, to be honest, Nugg is HOT…..! I (Sorry, Jose – but I had to….) One song ya’ll would DEFINITELY appreciate is his “Bear Pride” – trust me, you’ll like it!
