Last week was a whirlwind of music and events. Can you even remember all the acts you saw and the places you went? Instead of straining your already exhausted brain, which is slowly recovering from all the events of CMJ 2009, just sit back and relax. Download this exclusive podcast featuring our friends, Exile, Blu, Pharoahe Monch, J. Rocc, Spinna, Large Professor and more from our special VTech evening last Wednesday, and let the music help you get back into the groove of things. 

Don’t sleep… just listen.

From front to back and side to side, the Blvd on Wednesday, October 21st, was packed. And why wouldn’t it be? VTech and Plug Research were bringing Bilal, Blu, Exile, Shafiq, J. Rocc, Spinna, and more, all to perform for the music hungry crowds at this year’s CMJ. With upbeat energy and soulful singing, the music that night was not to be missed. Be sure to check back later this week on the Sounds of VTech to download the exclusive podcast.
