Wah gwan! Lil bit here! Team TJJ NY hit up Queens to check out Beenie Man live. Well I know you all are probably tired of my complaints about parking in Brooklyn, no offense Queens posse but y'all borough tuff tuff tuff! We drove around for what seemed like an eternity until we found a spot 5 blocks away! Pressha! I did notice that as we drove around there was a lot of police activity and thought there is no way they could all be at every corner because of the club. Anyway getting in was a breeze, and we could hear the reggae jamming hard! Maracas formerly known as Rum Jungle, is quite spacious with designated areas for dining and a fabulous dance floor. The vibe was just right! I do believe that it was the first time that I have actually been to a venue that served fabulous food along with what turned out to be an awesome night out! As we waited for Beenie to arrive we made our usual rounds, got some drinks and enjoyed the music. The sessions were really hitting the spot. Old school to new school reggae and soca, and would you believe chutney too! The crowd was definitely jamming hard. Folks in the VIP were popping champagne and living it up! Beenie Man arrived around 2am with heavy security detail in tow and the crowd went wild when he hit the stage! Did I mention that it was 10 to 1, as in women to men! The ladies were screaming out for him! One young lady was screaming about having his babies! Now that was a first for me! Beenie was looking criss in black and white ... check out the shoes! I tell you the man well stylish. So poor Beenie had his arm in a sling. Turns out he broke it while playing soccer, but that didn't stop him from delivering an awesome performance. He just made you want to dance to all his songs without care ... not to mention sing out loud! *lol* It was a Hitalotathon® of course! Hey, what else can we say? Beenie .... bad bad bad! He even busted out a lil' Bob ... nice touch! It's official, Team TJJ NY are "Beenie Man Groupies"! *lol* Be sure to check out our 5 Minutes With Beenie Man!! Meh
