PICS: Alex Gidewon’s Birthday Bash at Aurum

Elsa Belai (The Elle B Group) helped her fiance Alex Gidewon celebrate his 35th birthday at Aurum Nightclub on Friday (July 15). The party was also the kickoff to the Secret Society parties which will now take place each and every Thursday night at Aurum. The bash was sponsored by Belvedere Vodka.

Secret Society will have different genres of music bringing the NY and LA feel to the South.

Go to ATLPICS to see more photos from the party!

The dress code was strictly booted and suited and everyone complied. Kwessi (owner, Moda 404 Men’s clothing store), Bunmi (road manager for Lauryn Hill), guest, and Malik. It’s good to see grown men where grown men clothes, unlike rapper Jay Z who is older than all of these guys and wears his jeans off his butt.

L to R: Sylvia, Sarah Chapman and Effie Ogby (personal chef based in DC who cooked for Alex and Elsa for a week)

Dapper music producer Jermaine Dupri, left, and Ryan of the Ryan Cameron Show on V-103

High fashion Decatur Flavors. Obviously these are not your typical Decatur Flavas

Fabolous’s “brother”/manager Ruggs became an overnight sensation when he slapped the tasted out of Groupie icon Kat Stack’s mouth in a viral YouTube video. Ruggs cleans up very nicely.

I’m thinking he made it out of hundreds of Almond Joys wrappers which he obviously ate himself seeing how his pants aren’t even pulled all the way up and they’re still tight. And not regular tight, tight from waist to ankles hope they weren’t SKINNIES!!

@sandra did you see the utube video of L Boogies daughter singing? Lauryn said she was ready to come back so a tour wouldnt be that much of a surprise but I want another HAWT cd more than anything.

@sandra L Boogie said she was ready to come back and make music in her NPR interview (something similar) so I think she will have a new cd in the next yr or so although she may tour 1st to get her feet wet.

@Al I saw L boogie as well. She is going to need some singing lessons (I know I know kids are off limits)

Actually, a little birdie told me that Lauryn Hill is about to announce a world tour.

Lauryn is going on tour but no album
——————————————-
yeah i heard about the possible tour. which is risky being that current artists can’t even tour right now with the economy as it is and have cxld….let alone someone who has not had a hit in a decade. and i agree sandra she prolly won’t be dropping an album.

a topic that me and all of my artsy musical friends have debated for years, is half of us are convinced and always have been, that one of the reasons miss hill slid into obscurity, and never even tried again was because she already knew she stole all of those folks songs like they accused her of and sued her over.

in other words, she already knew lightning was not gonna strike twice. cause it did not strike once. there will never be another “miseducation” from her. if she was sucha musical genius she woulda had oodles of music written before “miseducation” even hit the streets. the real greats have music on deck for YEARS…but she had only enough for ONE great album only…? ummm…okay.
