I don't remember ever saying Cordish at all. And I didn't ask if they typically booked rap acts. I asked if they play hip hop music.

Thats very cool. Too bad downtown sucks these days. I bet she saw KC in a good time to be in the city.

Why wouldn't ol boy turn it down, they get paid no matter what the volume level.

I could care less, but my speculation is they didn't have a problem with Rhianna and that other crap, but when the scary MC starting hyping they pulled the plug. I'm sure more will be coming out as it plays.

jazzy shoulda called up his old pal freddy kreuger

Exactly what I was thinking.

Don't take my word for it.
Do some research.

I've had experience with soundsystems that expensive though.
Hell... Anyone who invests 1% of what Cordish has, into their PA, would be foolish not to put such features in place.

Who is they?

And they stand to gain exactly what from pulling such a stunt?
Jazzy Jeff lives in Philadelphia.
Boy I tell ya...

The more i think about it, this could have been what happened.


Thats what this other storys says. They strayed from the requested "Top 40" playlist.

ROFL That was your first mistake.

Cordish head Jon Stephens said nothing at all about Jeff straying from a set playlist.

Cordish Pres. Jon Stephens is on 610AM right now.

I call it how I see it. Bottom line is KC PL District doesn't want it to become another Westport for obvious reasons.

This isn't racial profiling. I went to PL one Sat night and at the entrance they were telling a group of thugs they couldnt come in because of what they were wearing. They had their pants sagged down with their asses hanging out, wife beaters, and red tilted hats all the same color. These hoodlums are the ones that are calling out P&L people racists. The people complaining about this are the ones that come out of the bad parts of town, claiming that city officials are trying to keep them away by having dress code requirements. You know what? If you dont wanna change out of your gang attire then go somewhere else that allows it (Westport).

There's nothing racist about it. No one is telling them they have to wear those kind of outfits. They CHOOSE to wear that kinda clothing. P&L is trying to stop trouble before it begins. It's been proven over and over again. People like that cause trouble at large gatherings like at late night clubs etc.

Had they come in with jeans just a regular shirt they would have been fine, but the culture they want to bring into that place isn't allowed. It isn't a racist thing as they choose what they want to look like. Put on some clothes that actually makes you look like you give a shit about life and there isn't any problem. The dress code is nothing more than a step to prevent certain issues from ever happening. They never once said "blacks can't come to P&L." There are a lot of african americans that go there. They just dont want any of the gang like activity or atmosphere to even step foot into the place which I totally agree with. The same goes for the white trash that want to present themselves in that manner as well. P&L doesn't want it there, and that's comepletely up to them.



As far as the Jazzy Jeff, I don't really believe his claim in stating they didn't want him to play Hip hop, he's a rap legend and officials KNOW that he's a hip hop legend and they wouldnt have booked him to play there if they didn't want to hear it. Just like they wouldnt book Garth Brooks there if they didn't want to hear country music.
