Ant Marshall of Lyricist Lounge @ The Cellar 6/29
Yeah got to meet+open for Ant Marshall. One Half of the duo that created THE LYRICIST LOUNGE. Which started out as a open mic event in NYC with MC such as Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Eminem, Notorious B.I.G. etc blessing the mic, to mixtapes, to a MTV Freestyle/Sketch Comedy show. Ant and company played a great set, a blend of old club classics, some disco edit, afro beat, dancehall, and even showin a lil bay love.

Aleister Crowley+Souls of Mischief Connection??? 93 Till Infinity!
One of my fave Hip Hop jams! Classic. An Occult connection appeared to me the other day...been listening
to Ordo Templi Orientis Podcast+reading up on Aleister Crowley, and a connection came to me. The number 93 is short hand greeting among Thelemites for a famous Crowley quote "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law, Love is the law, love under will." Thelma (Will)+Agape(Love) which numerically adds up to 93. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/93_(Thelema)
93 till Infinity...souls of mischief...Hieroglyphics...hmmm...
Crowley "inspiration" came to him in a travel to Egypt...
alot of lil interesting degrees of seperation. From pyramid album
graphics...Khmetics/5 percenters name drops...etc...
Eh alot of Occult iconography/concepts in Hip Hop Music is a blend of Eastern/Western
Esoteric traditions which traces back to origins in Egyptian Mystery Schools. Khmetics!
