Big brother Fresh of the L.A.Breakers hosted The Annual First Jam of the Year in MacArthur Park (Historic 6th and Alvarado). This is where it all started for me, I wouldn't be doing what I was doing today without mentors like Fresh or outlets like JUICE and Project Blowed.

Such a dope event with amazing energy!
