Hey Everyone… that which does not kill us makes us stronger. I truly believe in that. With that being said I can learn something from any situation good or bad if my mind is open & im able to evolve from it. As you guys know my grandmother “Helen Armagno” passed away at 5pm the day before Mother’s Day . She was the rock of my family and the heart of her community. She was always there if u needed her & she was always there to help someone in need. With that being said I have some good news & some bad news. The bad news is as you probably have heard I postponed the Memorial Day weekend event. I also postponed my performance in Berlin at the legendary KitKatClub Berlin because it was the day after her funeral & I was in no mental space to play nor throw an event to say the least. The good news is I am in talks with the Berlin fam & hoping to get out there asap As soon as the date is confirmed I’ll let you guys know shout out to Chris Symbiotikka & the rest of my peeps in Berlin much love. The even better news is that it is my honor to let you know that WE have turned it into a “Celebration of Life Event” & tribute to my grandma the late Helen Armagno who lived a century on this earth. We are now donating ALL the proceeds to charity in particular to the Rockaway Beach Parks & Wildlife fund. If u got it like that donate if not that’s ok too just go to the event link and get your free ticket. It’s now bigger and better than before. Again get your ticket at the event link and you will be emailed the secret location to the event hours. We look forward to seeing you at the beach.

If I had even half the courage, love and wisdom my grandmother had… I would be totally content with that. I’m so grateful for my grandmother. She was the rock of my family, my biggest supporter and, always had my back. I am so grateful to god I was able to be with her as well as my family when she passed away. My grandma, Helen Armagno was born November 7th 1922 and died with her family who loved her the day before Mother’s Day - Saturday May 13th. She is at a peace. She lived a blessed long life and is in a better place. I’m grateful for my family and friends & the people around me. Ive been morning with my friends and family for the past few days and hopefully this brings my family even closer together. I would also like to apologize to my fans, friends and extended family over in Berlin for not being able to make my May 19 performance at the legendary KitKatClub Berlin . I was not in the right mind space. Mourning her passing combined with wanting to be there for my family. I feel I made the right decision not to travel to Berlin, and had to cancel my performance at the legendary playing for Chris Symbiotikka who is one of the Dopest promoters in Berlin however, again, I wanted to be a man and be there for my family. I really wanted to play, however I feel I made the right decision and that’s what being a man is all about in my opinion making the right decision, even when it’s a tough decision. Moving forward, I hope to be working with the crew out in Berlin to schedule a make up date, I’ll keep you guys updated asap. I really Hope all is well…. lots of big announcements coming really soon, but I just wanted to stop, relax… and take a moment of silence for grandma Helen. She lived a century & im so very proud of her and I’m also proud of my family for coming together & I wanted to say Thank You to both my friends & family who have been there for me through this horrible time. This too shall pass. God is good, all the time. Real recognize real & if you do the next right thing… the next right thing happens . I hope everyone is doing OK out there. I’m wishing you all the best and many blessings. - Brian (DANK)
