Rhyme Calesthenics 6 – The Wheel of Hip Hop

UPDATE – This event is May 15 – NOT May 8 – my error – I was so excited for Rhyme Cal – I didn’t want to wait a week. 

This event comes highly reccomended to me by a number of IheartPGH readers.

Rhyme Calisthenics is an MC competition that combines the intensity of a rap battle with the excitement and unpredictability of a game show. While rap battles only require one skill – the ability to diss one’s opponent – Rhyme Calisthenics is the true test of an MC’s versatility, creativity and swagger.

They even have a fan who drove in from Ohio to check out Rhyme Cal last fall.

Dance Away the Winter Blues

Yesterday, I was watching this interview on KDKD where I learned that most people gain 7 pounds between Thanksgiving and New Years.  I want to mention that this interview was about a new  product, that I think is pretty cool, called GoWearFIT, which is from a Pittsburgh company, BodyMedia.

One way to burn off some of those extra holiday calories would be to attend the December Viper’s Soul Club. Viper’s Soul Club is the monthly dance party with soul. DJ’s Juddy n’ Gordy will be spinning 1960s R&B, Motown, and Northern Soul music.

Heart of Saturday Night – Now with extra fun imported from Michigan

I have blogged about these events many times before. These guys are fun, their parties are great. What used to be called Soucialism is now the Vipers Soul Club. The dance parties are now at the Shadow Lounge – which offers the added bonus of being smoke free.

What I think is really notable is that members of the Ann Arbor Soul Club will be traveling to Pittsburgh to partake in the music and dancing fun.

Juddy has just posted a sample of some of the music for this weekend on the Soulcialism blog – click here to listen. Continue reading
