The idea behind Egos Aside is that I wanted to present a night that takes you back to the foundation of hip-hop, where the producers and DJs were connoisseurs of drum beats and amidst chopping up the funky break beats, they really understood where the credit was due -- with the musicians and producers who made it all possible. Paying respect to the drummers like Bernard Purdie and producers such as David Axelrod, C.Moore and I shine a light on classic hip-hop producers such as J Dilla, DJ Premier, Pete Rock and Madlib through productions that will inevitably hold true throughout the test of time.
We will be starting every week at 9 pm and Poleng will be offering amazing food till late. Don't miss your opportunity to check out one of San Francisco's best restaurants for mad cheap as they will be serving up a menu of $5 plate options!!!
Really stoked to have Poleng right in my neighborhood! I live less than two blocks away and I really want to focus on that neighborly vibe for Egos Aside. Poleng is located at Fulton and Masonic just north of the Panhandle at 1751 Fulton St.

And as for my Egos Aside co-host...
C.Moore is one of my best friends in the world who happens to be one of the most talented producers you probably haven't heard yet. With a style heavily influenced by Bonobo, early Shadow, Four Tet, Quantic and Nightmares on Wax, C.Moore's music provides soulful beats and melodies that are sure to resonate deeply.
Do yourself a favor and check out some of his productions he has up on his Myspace page at www.myspace.com/conrad12.
