April 18-24, 2002 cover story Get Up and Get Down
I know you’re out there. The trick, Philadelphia, is waking you out of your lazy hibernation. What you need is a good reason to get out of the cave -- and CP’s Music Issue can help. We’re giving you in-depth looks at artists destined to make a permanent mark on our fine city, budding institutions looking to stick around for a while. The big story is "Night Shift," our rundown of new (well, mostly new) weekly and monthly events going on in town. That's where ?uestlove, Stacey, Yameen and Tastykakes come in. The Roots' stickman and his friends who run the Tastytreats nights at Filo's are just some of the movers out there shaking up the club scene in town. We set some of our writers loose to find out what's young, restless, bold and beautiful in Philly's nightlife. Collin Keefe talks with the all-star lineup of The Dirty Triplets, whose rock has just started rolling. Hip-hop scribe Ainé Ardron-Doley talks to two Philly MCs about to drop debut discs, Baby Blak and Kenneth Masters -- skilled wordsmiths who spread their message underground. Worship Recordings is no baby, so Sean O'Neal talks to DJ Rob Paine to find out why the electronica label is just now getting around to putting a CD out. All that plus reviews of brand-new CDs and DJ mix-tapes by local artists. Wake up. It's spring. I just bought a little red box of raisins, and I feel like a kid again.
P.S. If you're keeping score, this makes a ?uestlove hat trick for CP covers over the last few years. Now seems like a good time to thank the Treats peeps for gracing our cover, the sweet people at Tasty Baking Co. for the truck and all those free Krimpets, and photographers Trevor Dixon, who got into a car accident on the way to shoot the cover, and Mike Regan, who filled in beautifully.
