Last night Tity Boi nka 2 Chainz (@2Chainz) had his NYC debut at SOB’s to a sold out crowd. The event was hosted by Power 105.1 FM’s The Breakfast Club (Charlamagne, Angela Yee & DJ Envy). Here’s footage of 2 Chainz performing “Turn Up” and “Spend It”.
After the jump check out what happened when 2 Chainz brought out Raekwon, who got on the mic and told the crowd 2 Chainz is good in NYC. Not everyone in attendance agreed with that edict and you can hear some of the crowds’ reaction at around the 1:20 mark. There’s also footage of 2 Chainz performing “Riot” and “Duffle Bag Boy”.

KTV chats with lifestyle/fashion/cultural blogger Marcus Troy (@MarcusTroy) during NYC’s Project 2012.
Marcus Troy discusses the evolution of the famed tradeshow, where attendees can buy a pair of just made shoes (in the video we see a craftsman creating a pair), get a haircut, purchase newly made fashion forward apparel, plus much more.
The most intriguing portion of the video is The Blogger Project, which Marcus Troy curated. The Blogger Project invited top fashion and lifestyle content publishers to live blog Project 2012. Within The Blogger Projects’ space, bloggers were allowed to interact with the designers and brands, use a photo space to take shots and product spots of the event, plus more. Marcus Troy also takes about the importance of bloggers not being afraid of change and experimentation.
