grateful for this dude right here. so...as the story goes, i played a couple of sets for an @intlanthem event at @h0l0.nyc. close to this time last year. the dude who was managing the space and i hit it off fairly quickly. he introduced himself as @joey_desktop and let me know that he was familiar with @paxicorecords and some of the imprint’s output. we exchanged math and, shortly after, he reached out to ask if i was interested in partnering up with him to develop a monthly event. i was all ears and we set a date. a couple of weeks later, i made my way to h0l0 to meet up with him to exchange some ideas. looking back, i remember it being a strange night. it was a wednesday, the weather was starting to cool and there was a wack turn up party happening in the space. when their bouncer didn’t show, he asked if i’d fill in. i’ve bounced for years all over BK + NY, the crowd was easy, it was a quick bit of change and i’d get to soak in the space a little more. sure. why not? the night went by uneventfully, joey and i dapped it up and i bounced on my bike. a few blocks away, as i was bombing it down a hill, standing up on the pedals, with no lights and no helmet, a guy kicked his car door out as i passed by. trust. i’m lucky to be alive. i’m lucky i don’t have brain damage. the way i flipped, i know my angels caught me. alhamdulillah. not yet. i eventually had surgery and spent a few months in bed. four months total in the house. six months relearning to move and eventually bend my leg. and eight months relearning to walk. i still won’t run for another year. but this guy kept tabs on me thru all that. when some of my closest friends and family didn’t. almost like he was obligated to or something. little messages here and there. but that meant the world to me when i was trapped inside, trying to not lose my mind. he’ll always go down as a real one for that. and when it was time for me to re-enter the world again? he was right there. same as it ever was. salute, my guy. thank you for all of that. even the experience and ordeal itself. it’s shaped me in ways that i may never fully understand. physically + mentally. and i’m forever grateful for that. now let’s build.
burn your idols.
playing with some very good people & a few old friends in a couple of weeks. come thru. #Repost @offthescene_ ・・・ Our next show in two weeks. Thank you for everyone for rocking with us. We are at a new location! RSVP link in bio.
reflections on life + love. 45s + avenues. the ebb + the flow. salute to a gem dropper for real, for real. got me missing East LA in a real way today. cuchifritos on me next go around 💎✨👌🏾

108 E 51st St. i first walked through this little door just over a year ago. i had been hired on as a manager for Crossroads Community Services....a humble non-profit run out of St. Bartholomew’s Church on Park Ave. that operated a soup kitchen, food pantry, women’s bed respite and food rescue program that served nearly 8,000 meals and families in need, on a monthly basis. i needed a job. and the benefits looked decent. but i hadn’t the slightest clue that i would witness the best of life and some of its greatest miracles within this place. i’ve gotten some of my deepest lessons in this place. community. compassion. patience. humility. strength and perseverance. i learned that every human being - no matter their condition - has the capability to be of contribution. and that there is a very real, stark difference between charity and standing in solidarity with others. some of the most meaningful friendships that i have fostered in NYC were created here. this is my final week here....and it’s been an emotional one, to say the least. but the lessons imparted upon me will stay close to my heart forever and i am so, so thankful for EVERYthing that this past year has exposed me to. the highs and the lows. what a Blessing. i can’t tell you how many times someone has gotten on a crowded A or E train, smelling to high heaven while asking for change, only to turn around, see me and exclaim, ‘eeeeeeeyyyyy Malik!!’, while everyone else stares at us. alhamdulillah. that i can be present enough to connect with people on that level and simply be with them. meet them where they are at. that their humanity is no longer invisible to me......what a wonderful Gift to depart with. i’m no Saint. by any stretch. but i’ll always cherish that. i’ll still be coming back to volunteer from time to time and - should you feel compelled to do so - give me a shout. they could always use a pair of hands and a caring heart. or ears. some of these cats want me to throw a jam for them at some point. might have to make that happen.
yeah.....i just did that. if you know me or came to visit me this past winter you know this is huge for me. six months ago i was just starting to venture outside after being stuck in my bed for two months. i was (and very much so still am) recovering from surgery to repair PCL + MCL ligaments that were torn from the bone and a destabilized meniscal root. the procedure was deep and long (6+ hours) and required a tunnel being drilled to my shin to reach the work site. my surgeon - dr. gregory difelice at weil-cornell should you need a good orthopedic surgeon - champions a 60-year old procedure that uses only the native ligament. after he wove it back together and braced it to the bone, my leg had to stay straight and still, 24-7 in a metal contraption for a couple of months, causing my right leg muscles to atrophy. my surgeon said that the recovery would suck and he called it right. but i survived...for better or worse. i still won’t be able to jog or run for a year, and the bend radius on my knee isn’t complete....yet. but damn did this feel good. no crutches, no cane and no brace. and i walked fast enough to catch pedestrian rage. i deserve to feel proud about that. 🏃🏾‍♂️💨
