W A T T S 🆙 Photos 📸: @carlosjames1315 . Shout out to @jayrock who received the Key to Watts today at his community of Nickerson Gardens. It was a blessing to see another brother rise from the soil against all odds. Brother Jay Rock stands as a living testament to all of the brothers & sisters in the struggle that there is hope regardless of our circumstances. And big shout out to Top @topdawgent for laying the foundation of a musical & cultural revolution...he too is from Nickerson. #salute. From all the hoods near & far we stand in solidarity with The Nickerson & The Dubb against all opposition to our survival & progress as a people. ✊🏿 #wattsup #winwinwinwin . . #watts #losangeles #tde #topdawgentertainment #jayrock #nickersongardens #wattscalifornia #california #cali #community #culture #blackexcellence #blacksolidarity #peace #hiphop #losangeleshiphop #photography #fujibros #carlosjames1315 #innercity #keytothecity (at Nickerson Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx3iFi_lLyK/?igshid=8948yf0eagv6

• The Maasai Tribe of Kenya • Photo by: @carlosjames1315 — These brothers were so welcoming & hospitable. They are brave men who has maintained their culture & traditions despite outside pressure to abandon them. There is much wisdom to learn from them...I wish I had more time.

Before the show I hadn't heard of Gallant but I became a fan after about 10 seconds! Don't think real music and real talent died in the 90s... These young cats still keeping it a buck & keeping the torch lit for real art. #dontsleep #salute — Photo by: @carlosjames1315 — 🎤: @sogallant 📍: @lodgeroom 📷: FujiX100S — @adrianyounge @alishaheed @artdontsleep @linearlabsmusic @amazonmusic — #musicphotography #big_shotz #webstagram #concertphotography #livemusic #hiphop #lamusicscene #highlandpark #lodgeroom #lowlightphotography #amazonmusic #fujifilm #dola #losangeles #carlosjames1315 #gallant #rnb #vocalist #dmvmusic #soul #sogallant #linearlabs #linearlabsmusic (at The Lodge Room) https://www.instagram.com/p/BupZ0D0geS2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=h5wp4wuxvea
