On Sunday, SGU and friends hosted an issue release party to commemorate and honor the ten-year anniversary of 9/11. SGU created a special issue in honor of this historical day entitled #WTC in tribute to all of those who were affected by the events of September 11th.
In true New York fashion, ten years later this city is stronger than ever. Instead of mourning the tragedy, we celebrated how far New Yorkers have come since the attack and raised our glasses toward the future.
The fiesta brought party-goers all the way down to the financial district just minutes away from the memorial site. We compiled into the lobby of the Thompson hotel on Gold St, and made ourselves at home in TBD lounge. The crowd looked exactly like Goldbar Funday. We got toasted and toasted to the sounds of Dj Lino as he warmed up the party for the big performance of the night, Cam’ron. What better way to celebrate New York than with a member of Dipset?
As usual Cam’ron killed it. In between rapping “Welcome to New York City” and “Hey Mooma” Killa Cam stopped the party for a moment of silence to pay respect to all of those we had lost ten years ago. He stopped to take twit pics with his fans, as usual, and had so much fun that he followed to the after-party.
Cam’ron hopped in his whip and headed to Broome and Mulberry where he continued to get gully with all of us at Goldbar Funday.
It was a great way to commemorate such a meaningful day in New York City. I’m so proud to say I live here. Never forgive. Never forget.
