THESE PICTURES ARE FROM KOSMOS NIGHT CLUB. KOSMOS WAS LOCATED AT 350 OAK STREET IN COPIAGUE LONG ISLAND. WE STARTED PROMOTING THIS CLUB IN SEPTEMBER. FUNNY ENOUGH, THIS CLUB IS WHERE WE FIRST WERE INTRODUCED TO OUR FINAL PARTNER: LOS. WE APPROACHED HIM, AND HIS PARTNER AT THE TIME "C", AND WORKED OUT A DEAL TO HAVE KY PERFORM. WE HAD A MEETING, SET A DATE FOR TWO WEEKS FROM THE MEETING AND THE REST WAS HISTORY. OUR FIRST OFFICIAL NIGHT WAS SEPTEMBER 20TH OF THAT YEAR. ON THAT DATE, KY AND DOC PERFORMED LIVE WITH A GUEST APPERANCE FROM L.A. OF L.A. FOR SENATE ENTERTAINMENT. OUR COMPANY PRESSED UP A SAMPLER CD (VOL.1) FEATURING EVERYONE FROM YOUNG MIL, PILLZ, KAP PEELAZ, CISE FORBES, DOC AND MORE. THE NIGHT WAS A HUGE SUCCESS AND WAS UNKNOWINGLY THE BEGINING OF SOMETHING SPECIAL! THE PARTY CONTINUED AT KOSMOS FROM THAT POINT ON EACH AND EVERY FRIDAY WELL INTO THE NEW YEAR! THE CLUB OPEN DOORS FOR MANY PEOPLE, INCLUDING OURSELVES AND BECAME THE BASE OF OUR ORGANIZATION AT THE TIME.... |
KOSMOS HELPED US TO OPEN OUR EYES TO THE DIFFERENT THEMES AND PARTIES THAT WILL ATTRACT A CROWD. WE THREW ALL TYPES OF PARTIES FROM LIVE PERFORMANCES, TO CONCERT AFTERPARTIES, THONG CONTESTS, TEEN NIGHTS, RAP BATTLES, GENTLEMENS NIGHT AND MORE. TWO OF OUR MOST SUCCESSFUL EVENTS WERE A REGGAE BASHMENT FEATURING DJ FRONT LINE AND THE STINGA MOVEMENT. THE SECOND EVENT INVOLVED A COLLABORATION EFFORT WITH BORNIIROC RECORDS. ON THIS NIGHT, THEIR RECORDING ARTIST "ZHADO" PERFORMED ANY AMITYVILLE REPRESENTED BIG TIME. OVERALL, KOSMOS ALLOWED US TO WORK WITH MANY PEOPLE FROM DJ DYNAMITE, CUBS & SLUGS, DJ RAM GOAT, STINGA MOVEMENT, DJ CRE8, THE TURNTABLE ASSASINS, DJ KAST ONE OF THE HEAVY HITTERS, POWER 105 AND MORE. WE HAD KOSMOS TO THE POINT WHERE WE PAID FOR ADVERTISMENT ON POWER 105 COURTESY OF A CLOSE FRIEND AND BUSINESS ASSOCIATE...DOCTOR DRE! |

EAST & PINE HAS BEEN INVOVLED WITH SEVERAL MIXTAPES AND ALBUMS. INSPIRED AT A YOUNG AGE BY TEAM STIX (BEASTRO, BIG SHA, JAZZ, UMAJESTY) WITH SONGS LIKE "FEEL THE PAIN" AND "YOU GOT YO GAT", DOC PURSUED A CAREER AS A RAPPER. WRITTING POETRY AND RAPS IN NOTEBOOKS AND THEN RECORDING THEM WITH HEAD PHONES ONTO CASSETTE TAPES WITH FRIENDS, HE FORMULATED A GROUP CALLED THE "EAST STREET FAM". THIS NAME ORIGINATED FROM THE BACK STREET OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD HE LIVED IN. "EAST STREET FAM" WOULD LATER BE REINVENTED AS "EAST AND PINE" AS DOC DEVELOPED MORE OF A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP WITH LONG TIME FRIEND "SAM HELL". MUSIC WISE, THE TWO BEGAN WORKING ON DOC'S SOLO ALBUM ENTITLED "THE DEFINITION OF A DOCTOR" ALONG WITH PRODUCER TRIPLE A (THEN KNOWN AS DRE), FORMER COLLEGUE AND FRIEND FORM COPIAGUE HIGH SCHOOL, OUT IN BROOKLYN NEW YORK, AND NEWLY FOUND COLLEGE BUDDY AND PRODUCER JOHNNY PHENOM ON STATEN ISLAND. THE PROJECT HAS ACCUMULATED OVER 30 ORIGINAL TRACKS AND HAS YET TO BE RELEASED! THE "DEFINITION OF A DOCTOR" WILL BE RELEASED IN IT ENTIRETY SOME TIME IN 2006. OUR FOCUS BECAME KY, AS HE ATTENDED A SESSION WITH DOC AND SHOWED AND PROVED HE WAS READY AND HUNGRY. DOC THEN PURSUED KY'S PROJECT, LATER TITLED "THE 31ST DAY". HE PRODUCED SONGS WITH TRIPLE A, JOHNNY PHENOM, MIESTRO, AND TREV AMOUNG OTHERS. THE "31ST DAY" HAS BEEN IN THE MAKING SINCE 2002 AND IS FINALLY COMPLETE. KY'S SITUATION BECAME SOLID WITH BNR RECORDS WHO IS SCHEDULED TO RELEASE HIS SOLO PROJECT IN 2006. DURING THE PROCESS OF PROMOTING KY, WE FEATURED HIM ON SEVERAL OTHER PROJECTS AND PICKED UP A COUPLE MORE ARTISTS.
THE KAP PEELAZ FORMED AS A RESULT OF OUR ONGOING TRIP TO THE STUDIO. ALSO FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD OUR COMPANY WAS BORN IN, THESE YOUNG INDIVIDUALS WERE RELATIVES OR CLOSE FRIENDS OF THE ONCE "EAST STREET FAM". WE TESTED THEIR INDIVIDUAL ABILITIES IN THS STUDIO AND DECIDED IT WOULD BE BEST TO PUT THEM TOGETHER. SINCE THEY HAVE FEATURED ON "THE MOVEMENT" MIXTAPE, AND RELEASED "HIT & RUN" VOL.1.
YOUNG MIL WAS INTRODUCED TO THE TEAM BY KY. HE PRESENTED YOUNG MIL, WHO WAS LATER TAKEN TO THE STUDIO AND TESTED ON SEVERAL TRACKS. THOSE TRACKS WERE PLAYED FOR MANY OF OUR CLOSE FRIENDS AND BUSINESS PARTNERS AND THE REST WAS HISTORY. MIL HAD A VOICE THAT STOOD OUT AND PUNCHLINES THAT EITHER INSULTED COMPETITION OR MADE YOU REWIND!
OVERALL, WE HAVE RELEASED SEVERAL MIXTAPES AS SEEN ABOVE, FEATURED OUR ARTIST ON SEVERAL PROJECTS FROM OTHER LABELS AND CONTINUE TO WORK ON MORE PROJECTS TO BE RELEASED IN THE FUTURE. |
