Someone emailed me this letter addressed to DHR written by the promoters of the Blunt Posse and Herbalize clash. Just taught i would post it. Big Up Blunt Posse on the win. For years I have said Ajax is my favorite NY based MC. I hope this is the start of him gaining the respect he deserves.
A press release from the Promoter from the Blunt/ Herbalize clash.
Dear DHR.com Massive,
The Clash is over, the dust has left and i had some days time to think about a few things.
First I have to give my true credits to some people: Blunt Posse & Herbalize it for their wicked performance, Elmar for the perfect Hosting, Rotown Entertainment for recording and Reggaeville.com for taking pictures, Hekmek for the design of the Flyer and everybody who showed up last saturday. My biggest thank goes out to Top-a-Top Promotion & the whole Deebuzz family which supported me in a way I can't find words for
Family 4 life, no lie!!!!
As some people already said the turn out on the clash was horrible. We never thought that just a few people will show up and for me as a Clash fan I'm still shocked about it. A lot of people bawl out for those kind of Line ups and when somebody organizes them, just a few people are willing to support. Of course I do understand that right now the financial situation is bad for a lot of people but nobody can tell me $20 is too much for this Event. These changes nothing on the situation that I've lost a lot and I mean a lot of money last saturday and I also was not able to pay the Sounds the complete fee as I had to. I know that crying around doesnt help me now, and I also have to admit that i did some stupid and senseless mistakes. I ve to learn from those for next time.
The last day make me think a lot about to stop promoting soundclashes totaly cuz i had lost my motivationfor it but i arrived to the conclusion that this wouldnt be fair towards the people who really do care about Soundclashes and support those from they heart. I definetly will keep going on but i also think that everybody who has basic knowledge about mathematics can understand that i need some time to recover from this financial tragedy. The Clash that was lined up for this coming Saturday in Cologne is postponed to the 6/16/10. Herbalize It
The recording and the dvd WOUNT be released by me, cuz i dont see that anybody exept the people who showed up deserve to hear it, see it. But i know this wouldnt be fair neither (specialy for the People from Foreign) so I decided to send the audios to the Sounds and let them decide if they want to drop it or not.
As I said, it's really a pitty we had such a bad turn out and I think both Sounds deserved it to play in front of a much bigger crowd. Such is life sometimes! I'll keep on promoting and for all those who still get money from me, don't worry you'll get it asap.
BIG UP BLUNT POSSE & HERBALIZE IT one more time cuz they deserve all the credits I can give them!!
We nah give up and stay linked for whatz coming next.
Thx for ur time people, respect --Smoka
