Nothing lasts forever and all things must come to an end. Those two cliches exemplify the truth of this world. In that vain down in San Diego tonight will be the final “Soul Sauce”. All lovers of good music and good times should make it out there and enjoy the “Sauce” one last time before it’s gone.

“Where is My Vote” is a project dedicated to the political failures of the Iranian government and the progressive movement by the people of Iran. The project was done by “The Are” of NY. Here is a note on how the project came about.
Thank you! I started this project a while back but got side tracked with other projects. After I returned from NY a few months ago, it was one of the things I wanted to finish. After the Iran election went down and I saw the press and protest, I thought not only did I want to do this project but that it HAD to be done. - Are via FWJM
Tracklist:
1. Intro
2. Protest
3. The March
4. Love
5. The Night
6. Let’s Go

It’s typical of Mr. Lif to speak his mind about the government and he does just that in this track, “What About Us?” The track is off his upcoming album, I Heard It Today, which is set to drop April 21st. In the album, Lif, delivers harsh criticism towards the government and its role on Wall Street. Should be a good listen…

As East of L.A. rolls into the new year we wanted to add some high-profile talent to the team to really help take this modest blog to the next level. Being so, and after exhaustive negotiations we’re pleased to announce Chedda as the Head of P.R. & Marketing at East of L.A. What impressed us most about Chedda was his ability to get Cheddar, handfuls of it at a time… East of L.A. is now poised to do big things in ‘09.
Holler at Chedda for inquires Che...@eastofla.com
