The A-List


So, many of you have been out of the loop ... mostly because ::ahem:: we've left you there ... ::crosses fingers:: don't hate us. We've been preparing for what we'd bring you this fall and ooooh boy! ... SPRING will be sprung, ladies! Just wait!

(p.s. we totally need an intern ... so you chicks should make that happen ... we write EXCELLENT letters of recommendation ... -_- ... ok, i guess we give a percentage of profit ... but spread that word too far)

ANYWAYS ... Just in case you're wondering ... AUTHENTIC has created it's A-List!

What's the A-List you ask!!! Ohhhh, you know, just Philly's hottest women doing SUPER DOPE ish (ya ... it's been awhile since I've talked to you pretties, I'm tryin' to stay PC)!

We'll have more info on the A-List later, but what you should know right now ... is that TONIGHT ... the A-List is bringing you one of the hottest parties in Philly! At NONE OTHER than ... THE RUM BAR! Dig it.


One of our favorite Philly DJ's and a definite member of the A-List has been brining you consistent contentment for a lonnnng while now! If you don't know about it .... well ... reading is ALWAYS fundamental.



"...Any Questions?" Music For~the~Soul

Brought to you by DJs Phoenix and BeFree:

For over a year we have been bringing you what we wanted (and figured others would too), a beautiful respite from the club life, where people can get together and vibe, share stories, dance, and find out about the varied and interesting lives that we live.

"...Any Questions?" is also a space for artists to enjoy an audience. And if anyone missed ELLEN TIBERINO creating a beautiful mosaic on sight, WOW! that was an inspiring night!


We have a number of exciting collaborations with artists, organizations, and performers coming up for the summer season.

"BROOKLYN SUPERHEROES" go to B-GIRL BE :: A Celebration of Women in Hip-Hop :: MAMA SAID KNOCK YOU OUT

As part of the fourth installment of Intermedia Arts' hugely successful festival B-Girl Be: A Celebration of Women in Hip-Hop, this Friday the all-female art show "Mama Said Knock U Out" will open its doors in Prince's hometown, Minneapolis. Curated by Michele Spaise and Theresa Sweetland, "Mama Said Knock U Out" is an international visual art exhibition that will showcase 28 female artists from around the world who use their visual voice to empower, inform and organize. These women are employing hip-hop culture as a means of expression, connection, education and social and political activism globally. The show will feature a select group of very talented female artists who are influenced or work within the hip-hop community.
Representing the feminine wing of the Brooklyn creative force, I'll be showing two pieces entitled Brooklyn Superheroes 1-2, along with the works of my friends & fellow artistas, Abeni Garret, JenOne, Sarah White, Alice Mizrahi, Toofly, & Minneapolis-native C-Rocka.

Artists: Abeni Garrett, Alice Mizrachi, Amanda Lopez, B Fresh, Catiesha Pierson, Chanel Kennebrew, Corinne Santiago, C-Rocka, Desdamona, Erotica67, Faith 47 & Rowan Pybus, Janelle Olson, Jennifer Rasinski, Jessica Kitzman, Katrina Knutson, Keegan Xavi, LadyKFever, Lauri Lyons, LICHIBAN, Monica Kelly, Motel 7, Niz, Sarah White, Shannon Joyce, Steph 1, Tamiko Mitchel, Tiffany Smith, and Toofly.
