Stretch & Bobbito Reunion?


Via Stretch Armstrong's Blog

Bobbito let the cat out of the bag already, so I'll just add on. For a little while now, we have been planning an event to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the last show we did together. It's kind of a dubious milestone but we couldn't do the 10th Anniversary of our first show, 'cause that passed 8 years ago. Maybe we could do a 20th, but that's in two years. Or, we could borrow from Eclipse's book and do an 18th Anniversary. Whatever; we both felt like the time had come to do something together, so the 10th Anniversary of our final show it is. But it won't be a celebration of going our own ways. No, no, no, kids. If I have any say in the matter, this will be a great night in the spirit of what went down at KCR, so expect the unexpected. We are working on getting the line-up finalized, which will include some groups that haven't performed together in ages. I soooo want to mention names, but I can't.
Being that the lineup has not been finalized, I'd love to know what artists YOU would love to see. Feel free to comment.

This could be crazy. I'd love to see this happen. I listened to the old shows Stretch uploaded throughout last year and I was blown away by how dope they were. We need more shows like this today; if you look at people like Pete Rosenberg, DJ Premier's Live at Headquarterz & Jay Smooth's The Underground Railroad, they're keeping that spirit alive. We need more Stretch and less Wendy Williams.
