This Friday my band Biscuits and Gravy drove to Atlanta for a dinner that producer/musician Craig King was throwing for another musician (drummer) Lil' John Roberts, who was also recently engaged to Jill Scott.... Please... if you all don't know who these people are GOOGLE EM and get your knowledge up!

We had met Craig King in 2007 when we played at Kanye's official after party here in Nashville. Craig King's production credits extend from Ludacris, T.I., and even the great Aaliyah, all the way back to Will Smith! I mean C'MON this man played on "Summertime"! Check out his website and even a video of him when he laid down the synth part for Kanye's single "Good Life" yeeeaaa he played on that too lol, check out the video

ANYWAY, Mr. King had several artists performing during the dinner extending from artists on So So Def, to Lil' John ROberts himself on the drums, who was the musical director of Janet Jackson's Velvet Rope tour and Jill Scott's last tour

So artist after artist went up on stage and we didnt know if we were goin to be called up cuz these were some major industry people and seasoned veterans! But Mr. King came thru for us, gave us a CRAZY introduction, and me and my boys shut it DOWN!!! We performed 3 songs and had everyone standing up and asking where they can here more

Through this opportunity we were able to meet several important people from Pay-per-view, who want us to play on one of their television events, and even people from a few newspapers that wanna do articles on us. THANK YOU CRAIG! Even My. King himself said he wants to work with us even more and ensure that we make it big

So, im still cheesin haarrrddd from friday, you cant ask for opportunities like that.
