Do you know who DJ Quik is? If you answered yes or no to this question, then go directly to Boombox . This Saturday December 3^rd the great folks at Boombox are having their 5^th Anniversary party. They do a great party once a month, but when it comes to an anniversary party they really know how to do it up. December 3^rd is going to be a banger with special guest DJ Quik, and guest host M.E.D..  If you don’t know about M.E.D., his latest album Classic is the perfect introduction. It’s been on heavy rotation on my iPod since it dropped. I hope he spits a few bars and plays a few tracks. And I can’t forget about the hosts that have been making LA dance for 5 years and counting, Mr. Inka One, Ben Diggin, and Analog.  Truly good people for keeping the scene alive in LA, and helping out with countless other events.  This is going to be an amazing night, so bring your camera, dancing shoes, and all your friends. See you all there. BIG thanks to the Boombox crew for bringing it every month.
