A Day In My Life: What it's like to be a Bawse with Rick Ross

I traveled to Miami to get Rick Ross to finish two records I produced for my new Get Familiar compilation, in the process I learned how to be a Bawse! Then I headed up to NYC to get a record done with Travis McCoy, Get Familiar!

Some new photos

My last trip to Toronto for a party called Revival, I linked up with a photographer that hit me up on Twitter (@ClintonSparks) by the name of Jalani Morgan (@JalaniMorgan). Went to his studio and we did a quick impromptu shoot for his portfolio, here are a few that came out very nicely. Check out Jalani's work here: www.jalanimorgan.com

BlackBerry T-Mobile Luxe Club: DC

Did a blackberry event in Washington, D.C., at the Shadow Room with Justin Bobby from the Hills... It's crazy how people get paid to come to the club just because you can see them on tv. Not for a special talent but just because. Now I'm not saying he has no talent because much like you that read this I was unfamiliar with the dude in the 1st place but when it came to doing something in the club, not so much going on! Oh Well, that's life! Aside from that he was a cool dude and the people in the club at the Shadow Room were cool as well as the staff and the owners. Shout to Ernest Skinner!


Anyhow, I'm in France now on a train to the airport to fly to Switzerland then back to France for a couple more gigs then I'll be back to the states on Nov. 15th in San Jose to Smash down the 1st stop on the XBOX 360 LIPS "I'm With The DJ Tour..." Little sleep, lots of work... Get Familiar!

Busy Weekend

Busy weekend! 1st Smashed it down on a yacht in San Fran on Friday with my boy Sean Kingston then me and him jumped on a plane to Las Vegas to celebrate Smashtime Saturdays 1 year anniversary as well as Halloween at Body English inside the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. (BTW - Watch the video coming soon! What DJs do that??). Then We started writing some records for his new album which are coming out Awesome! We got so many records we might do another album together before his official album. Then Sunday I hung out with my boy Nelly in Vegas to celebrate his bday. We discussed ideas for a new direction musically in his career and you would be surprised to hear what he's willing to do... You will inevitably Get Familiar with that but then we went to the club and rocked with my boy DJ Vice (aka my twin brother). Anyhow that was my weekend. Check out the video & pics. Hope u enjoy.


I am now off to go film a new television show with Paula Abdul for MTV in New York which will air in January. Its a Cheerleading/Dance competition. Pics & video to follow soon....Shouts out to France & Switzerland....See ya'll this weekend!! Owwwwwwww!!! Sparks, Out!

Back From Down Under

Just came back from Australia & seen live kookoburro birds. I never heard of them before, outside of the outback restaraunt menu. Anyhow, I performed at 2 clubs in Perth & Melbourne this past weekend (15 hrs of flying to get there from LA in which I just flew there to tape Daily ten on E!, very painful)..its so strange as a DJ how when you go to one club & they want you to play backpack hip hop then the next club wants nothing but mainstream hip hop. Me being a DJ that plays everything I like to get people familiar with music they may not necesarily listen to. Its great to see faces look up like "what the fuck is he playing" then look to the other side & see others giving a thumbs up as if to say "this is dope, no one ever plays this stuff here". Anyhow shouts to Groove 101 & the staff for showing me love. This was the first time I slept in a hotel/ apt that had no tv in the bedroom. How do u go to sleep just looking @ the ceiling?? I don't get that concept, I grew up with tv & traffic sounds when I was going to sleep so I kinda like noise. One thing I do whenever I go to a club or a party is go up & pay respect to the DJ ( maybe because I am one) especially if the DJ acknowledged my presense. I say this because I did a party in Melbourne & the players from AND1 Basketball were in the building so naturally I shouted them out multiple times to enhance their shine time & not one of them came to the booth to say what's up, Dicks! If NBA players can come up & pay respect ,why can't you guys? Shouts to my boy Jalen Rose! All & all Australia was hot, literally. If your not familiar its the summertime over there. Parties were dope & the people were super cool. I'm finally back & will be in studio next 3 nights recording records I wrote & produced & will be starting on hip pop rockstar mixtape volume II to have in time for new years eve weekend in Vegas to give them out for free @ Smashtime Saturdays party in Body English @ Hard Rock which incidentally is the official blast off for that party which will be every Saturday in 2008 with me, Sal Masakela & Ben Lyons from the E! Networks Daily Ten. Thanks to everyone who came out to party with me. I appreciate you guys! See ya'll again Down Under next year Mates!

Clinton Sparks Safety tip: 
Never use the soap in an airplane bathroom to wack off with while taking a long flight & trying to kill time. It leaves a candle wax coating on your shaft & balls and takes a week to peel off like skin after a sunburn....so wierd!!
