On Good Friday, I filmed a music video with Plainfield Hip Hop duo Negros Americanos and rapper J-Read around and under an exit ramp of the Pulaski Skyway. All landed safely.

I don’t know how legal this is, but I bumped into boxing at Union Square this past Saturday. The guy landing the punch is 52 years old and thoroughly defeated his much younger opponent, all while wearing non-athletic shorts with a cell phone clipped to his belt. I can only hope to be in such great shape at 52 (or now for that matter).

At Hugo’s in Plainfield, Negros Americanos threw a scholarship benefit last Friday. Perhaps the most energetic performer, Jersey City Reggae artist Zilla did not disappoint.
