What a week it has been…
–The New Jill Swing & 90’s R&B Girl Groups Thursday Night Feature was alot of fun. Thanks to so many people for listening and calling in to the studio with requests, shouts out and accolades—it was a record night for all three!
—The Monday Night Soul Show featuring Jackie Wilson and co-hosted by Pappy Do (my dad) was a blast too. Pappy Do has such major swag==the calls and emails received during and after the show were all for him. If you missed the show check the audio.
I can only hope to be as cool as him when I grow up!
–Much respect to everyone who has reached out to and connected with The Nanci O Radio Show. There’s quite a bit of freshness cooking in the pot that will be heading your way in the coming weeks and months!
Since my mission…and I’ve already chose to accept it….is to entertain you, not bore you, be sure to take note of the following upcoming dates for events that will get you out of the house without breaking your pockets:
–Thursdays at 54 West in Durham, NC
2105 East Highway 54 Suite B (919-405-4287)…the crowd is the type of corporate, after work crowd that loves good music and are older than college age but younger than your favorite 40ish uncle
–Friday August 29, 2008: Check From A2Z Entertainment’s website for more details

This week’s hot interviews
Representing the DC/MD/VA area is lyricist R.E.U.B.
R.E.U.B.’s words are all at once lyrical, intellectual and spiritual, in addition to being sexually stimulating without the vulgarity. In addition to rhyming R.E.U.B is known for his production skills: He’s produced for Tek of Smif-N-Wesson ‘G-Walkin‘, and Mehki Phifer’s film ‘Puff Puff Pass,’ and has won several industry standard Production competitions.
R.E.U.B.’s skills have been recognized by Rawkus, All Hip Hop.com and On Wax Magazine . I love it when folk are on their independent and relentless grind. All around fly guy, and “one of the baddest motherf*ckers alive” indeed!
“The Billboard Insurgence:r.e.mixed” is available now!!!
