Thanks to all our friends in the crowd who sup­ported us at the Upris­ing Reg­gae Fes­ti­val in Bratislava ear­lier this week­end! We hung out a bit with Mil­lion Styles from Swe­den and we had a great show! Here’s some pics..

This is what every tour­man­ager dreams about when clos­ing his/her lids above the clouds in a city­hop­per between euro­pean summer-festivals. A quiet ter­mi­nal, nobody at the check-in and no rush at all to the airplane..

When we finally arrived at the fes­ti­val, after four hours on the Czech/Slovakian high­way, we ate at the hotel. The kitchen sur­prised us with their culi­nary wiz­ardry and bedaz­zling dis­play. Man, I’m tired of peo­ple who cook, but have absolutely no inter­est in food..

The back­stage tent at the main stage. Gather the troops! Attack the crowd!

Fash­ion tip of the week! From the stand where we sold our tee’s. I’d go for the “bodybuilder-pirate of the carribbean-evil guy”-look any day..

Schumi always finds a rea­son to show off his col­lec­tion of expen­sive and hard-to-get sun­glasses. These are the crown jewels.

See you soon!

PLUS! New tour­date — 5 Sep — Sundsvall(SE) — Soundvilla

Kolla på Debatt på svt1 i morrn tors­dag kl 22. Det ska debat­teras om FRA-lagen och en annan är inbju­den pga låten ‘Den Ljus­nande FRAmtid’. Inte för att jag tror att jag kom­mer ha så mycket intel­li­gent att tillföra (jag är bät­tre på att skriva låtar), men jag ska dit o höra vad de har att säga.

When we picked up our lug­gage we were shocked to see that we all of a sud­den had landed in FRA-country. Bet­ter watch what you say over here!

I sprained my ankle the day before yes­ter­day (like so many times before play­ing bas­ket­ball or hand­ball) while I was shoot­ing a video in Fin­land with the Con­scious Youths. I was jump­ing up and down like a mad man and sud­denly I stepped on some­thing… It hurt pretty bad and I couldn’t con­tinue shoot­ing the video — except for some shots lying and sit­ting down. Then I left for the hotel and I had to hop on one leg the whole way to my room. Of course the recep­tion­ist put me in the room fur­thest away from the ele­va­tor… I was fuck­ing soaked when I got to the room, slept for 2 hours and had to catch a flight back home.

I gotta big up the air­port assis­tance crew though, who rolled me in a wheel­chair from check in to the plane, and then another one from the plane all the way to where the trains go to Malmö:

(Notice that’s Falk on the wheel­chair! Same com­pany who are noto­ri­ous for beat­ing up graff writ­ers in Swe­den. No love for Falk secu­rity of course, but the girl who pushed me in that wheel­chair was real kind and helpful.)

On another note I talked to the guys in Con­scious Youths and told them I couldn’t be in the group. I don’t know if you know this, but I was for a while — but I soon noticed that I didn’t have enough time to get as involved as I needed to — to really feel a part of the group. I’ll be a guest on their album though, which is soon to be released.

The day after Hiphop Kemp in Hradec Králové we flew to Frank­furt to do a show at the 20 year anniver­sary party for Rail­slide Skateshop. Thanks for bring­ing us out!

Mix­Mae­stro Vladi rides in style..

The venue was an old church that had been rebuilt.

Before the party they had a lit­tle sk8 con­test inside.

Finally, some down­time at the hotel..

They put us in a very nice designer hotel, called 25 Hours.

Peace! / Supreme LTR

Yeah, we’re doing the Marsa­tac Fes­ti­val in Mar­seille, France! Sep­tem­ber, 26^th!

We had high expec­ta­tions for Hiphop Kemp this year, and we were really happy with the show! The orga­ni­za­tion at the main stage was pretty much chaotic (that’s why we were delayed more than two hours..) but the crowd was live and when we finally entered the stage we felt their mas­sive sup­port! Thank you!

Our hotel. We didn’t get to spend no time in our rooms, because of the delay.. After the show it was straight back to the air­port. Phuu.. Raplife.

Stress! Pro­moe is kinda like N.O.R.E. — On the Run Eating.

We met up with some old friends from Swe­den. Mary Ann & Sheila a.k.a Da Shadlimz! Big ups!

The crowd, a few hours before our show..

Gin­ger & Lemon galore!

This is Oliver Tiger. He’s was rock­ing a cus­tom LTR-tee and seemed to be pretty much exhausted from scream­ing and jump­ing dur­ing the show.. His dad Affro runs the whole festival.

I felt the same way when pick­ing up my bag at the hotel. Exactly ZERO sec­onds of sleep. Show tomorrow..

Just got this pic from Alexandra!

Catch us in Barcelona at the Hip­notik Block­party! Sat­ur­day, Sep­tem­ber the 13^th.

Yeah, Moose JR a.k.a M.O.N.S of the infa­mous Break­me­canix is kind enough to bless us with a remix of Naïve!

Down­load it here or at Sthlm Beat Con­nec­tion. Also check out the Naïve Remix Con­test!
