Diz Gibran's listening party @ Crooks & Castles LA

Tuesday (4/7/09):  Jay, Flo, Garvin, and myself took a trip up to LA for Diz Gibran's "Soon You'll Understand" album listening party.  Diz Gibran is a new artist signed on to Crooks & Castles record label.  Listen here  for Diz's music.  While Jay and Garvin filmed for 5Dtv (coverage coming soon), I snapped a few shots for the 5&A Dime Blog.

The listening party was at the Crooks & Castles flagship store on Melrose Ave. in LA

Angelinos Jomo & Mark Marcelo met up with us as well.

Moonshine x Bams (Hellz).  Moonshine produced Diz's album.  Doesn't he look like Apl from the Black Eyed Peas?

Belvedere was serving up free cocktails all night.  I didn't partake though because we still had a long drive ahead of us back home.

The man of the hour, Diz Gibran.

Dennis (Crooks)

Diz x Crooks Fam

"He's the producer, i'm the Rapper".... Moonshine x Diz

Emil (Crooks)

The guys behind the camera never get any love.  Garvin (5Dtv) x edROC (MA & 5&A Dime)

Mark (Not pictured) and Suzie (5&A Dime) also made the trek up.

We threw up a couple stickers around the area.  Here's the mark we left on the BAPE store.  I hope Pharell doesn't mind.
