Walking towards Buku, I was excited about how the whole scene looked. The Crescent City Bridge on the left, a huge purple sign that states,
Blaine Kern Mardi Gras World and the fresh water smells of the Mississippi River. What I didn't anticipate was how much FUN I was going partake in. The
Buku Music and Art Project is a two day, three stage festival that promotes all things Molly. On the first day, I worked for
Nola Wrap Up, interviewing
The Coyotes,
Lettuce,
Best Coast, and
Break Science. With our bellies full from craft services and our drinks tipped off by Tito's Vodka we enjoyed the first night of the second annual Buku Project.
Day 2 was much different. We were asked about Lucy, bumped into Diplo at Kendrick Lamar, got silly with Calvin Harris and turned up by Major Lazer. Our run-in with good ole boy Dips, added Mel and I to his sold after party at
Republic and let's just say we were crunk fresh till 7am, like it was midnight! The word Buku means
plenty in creole sang and this is all true. Buku gave me buku stories that made it buku entertaining.
Goodnight.
