Attention Prince Fam… we are running it back, but this time it’s a Birthday celebration.

Come celebrate the birth of one of music’s greatest treasures, PRINCE. The goal is to dance the night away as we honor the life and music of the Purple one on Friday, June 6th at @lollipopshoppepdx

@akarenzo of @akepeleapparel and @mightymoves will be paying tribute to Prince Rogers Nelson, for what would have been Prince’s 67th birthday, with 5 hours of Prince & Prince-related music from 9pm-2am.

If you’ve ever attended one of the Sexy MF events in Portland or LA, or watched the Purple Raid on Twitch, then you know that we like to GO IN — with not only all the Purple classics, but the deep cuts, collaborations, productions, remixes, and covers too. You’ll hear Prince, Morris Day & The Time, Sheila E, Vanity 6, Apollonia 6, Jill Jones, The Family, NPG, and many more throughout the night.

Who knows, we might sing happy birthday to Prince at midnight … you’ll have to be there to find out.

9pm-2am

All Are Welcome

Happy 75th Birthday to my favorite artist of all t

Happy 75th Birthday to my favorite artist of all time, Stevland Hardaway Morris aka Stevie Wonder.

His catalog is rich with hits that span decades and his spirit is so genuine and seemingly innocent. Stevie is nothing short of a musical genius, an icon, and a visionary.

Just a few of my favorite Stevie tracks, subject to change each day: Isn’t She Lovely, Ribbon In The Sky, Hey Love, Lately, Sir Duke, As, I Wish, Golden Lady, Uptight Alright, and my ultimate favorite Love Light In Flight.

Please bubble wrap Stevie, protect him at all cost.

Thank you Stevie Wonder for all you’ve given us.

-Renzo

Before & After - Akepele Skate Decks 🛹

One super loved past time and my current love mixed into a product project. Skateboarding and @akepeleapparel.

I captured a bit of me putting the graphics on two of these skate decks. I didn’t have the tripod set up to film the application and cutting, that would have made good video. 🤣😂

Anyway, enjoy this quick video I made.

Song: Secret Rendezvous - Back In The Day (Remix).

THROWBACK Mixtape (Mix CD) inserts!!! 😱 Way ba

THROWBACK Mixtape (Mix CD) inserts!!! 😱

Way back in ‘08 when I first started pushing myself as a DJ, I recorded a mix/blend tape every few months. I’d burn them to CD and give them out to fellow dancers for their classes. I did a series called “I Can Make You Dance!” and this here was Volume 6. Each mix got better and the branding did too. I bought the CD Label Stomper, if you remember those. Lol

My first DJ name was Renie Ren, there’s a story behind it I’ll share another time. I felt this name had an old school early hip hop sound. Once I started to build my name more and lock down more gigs, I opted for a more refined name of Renz or Renzo. Still a play on my birth name,
T-REN-T. Get it?!? lol

Why do I have such a stack of these CD inserts still? Well, I only made about 50 or so copies of this mix and it was less expensive to order 500 “flyers” than just 50, so i had many leftover and since I keep everything…..I’m a hoarder for real. I can’t remember who designed this cover, it looks beyond my skill set for the time. Lol
