Welcome back to Lounge Hype. Today's topic is Jay Z at The Tunnel. I don't know who was the king at that New York City nightclub, but I know Jay Z was one of the main attractions. He brought excitement due to his performance.
There is a documentary on the tunnel, and I've seen and heard most people say (from the documentary) that Jay Z was the king there. I've seen more video clips on Jay Z at the tunnel more than I have anyone. Maybe they haven't released the rest of them yet.
You can see Jay Z live at the tunnel in 1999 on YouTube. Sometimes you'll see clips that will just say Jay Z live at the tunnel.
Whenever Jay Z would perform at the nightclub, it would be a crowded place. There would be loud cheers from the crowd. The music would be turned up, and Jay Z and his crew would be on the mic rapping with crowd participation. The crowd would rap too. It most certainly sounded as if Jay Z were king. He made the crowd active. He made the crowd move. The behavior of the crowd was more than words for Jay Z.
I'm Gail Nobles this is Lounge Hype. Today's topic: Jay Z. I'll be back with more about who performed at the nightclub. Stay tuned. Be sure to check out Jay Z's 1999 album volume three .. Life and times of Shawn Carter; certified triple platinum by the RIAA.

Welcome back to Lounge Hype. It was 1998 when Aaliyah performed at the tunnel with Timbaland. She performed Are You That Somebody upon its release. The song received critical acclaim from music critics with them praising its offbeat innovative production. In 1999, Aaliyah earned a Grammy award nomination for best female R&B vocal performance for the song. Initially, it was ineligible to chart on the billboard hot 100 mainly because it was an airplay single not commercially reloaded to retail stores. In December 1998, Billboard change it's policy to allow airplay only songs to chart on the Hot 100 and the song eventually peak at number 21.
Another performer that performed at the hip-hop club was rapper Eve. She was live at the Tunnel 2000. Eve performed her single Let's Talk Abouta It featuring Drag On. Some say Eve was hot and smoking at the Tunnel. Some say she was the queen.
The single let's talk about it came from the album Let There Be Eve … Ruff Riders First Lady. Eve had a lot to say in that title. The album was released in 1999. All the songs on the album were written by Eve herself. It sold over 200,000 copies in the first week. The album has sold over 2 million copies and was certified double platinum by the RIAA. Eve became the third female hip-hop artist to have her album peak and number one on the Billboard 200.
When Eve perform Let's Talk About It at the tunnel with Drag On, the crowd was waving their hands and rapping with them.
I’m Gail Nobles. I’ll be back with more about the night club The Tunnel in NYC.

The tunnel was a hip-hop nightclub in New York City from 1994 to 2001. Aaliyah was raised in Detroit, but she was born a New York City girl. I don't know how she performed at the tunnel with all the stuff that was going on there, but she did it. When Aaliyah performed there with Timbaland, the crowd bounced. She performed her hit Are You That Somebody. From the video clip that I saw of her, I didn't see any trouble.
At clubs, sometimes fights break out and gunshots are fired. I don't know of anyone going to the clubs now that used to go in my hometown, but anyway, at The Tunnel in New York, sometimes there was trouble from what I understand.
When Aaliyah performed at The Tunnel live, nobody seem disappointed. It looked like a moment for enjoyment for the crowd. All I can say is Aaliyah was a brave girl to perform there.
Thank you for listening. I'll be back with more about the tunnel. Tune in again next time. Goodbye for now.

Hi! I’m Gail Nobles. You’re listening to Lounge Hype. I’m thinking about Howard Hewett from the group Shalamar who had a birthday party one day at Xen Lounge.
Howard Hewett had a birthday party one day at Xen Lounge. The photograph that you see was taken by Gina Walker. Howard was about 60 then. Today he’s 67.
I still love to hear him sing. I love how he starts a song. That’s when you know something’s coming up. You know you’re about to hear something good. He’ll switch around and hit a high note, and the girls love that. Y’all know how he do. He’s really good live because he can sing.
Howard rose to fame as the lead vocalist of the group Shalamar. The group started in the 70’s. In 1985, Howard left the group to pursue his solo career, but he later returned to the group in 2001.
You can learn more about Howard and what he’s up to at howardhewettmusic.com.

Today’s topic: Indie Night - Dave Brown
People will tell you that it’s not about your talent. Then what is it about? Dave Brown is inviting people all over the world to join Indie Night. He wants to see your talent.
According to Dave’s bio, he made his way to Hollywood after receiving a Bachelor of Arts from Morehouse College. I call him Indie Night - Dave Brown because of the Indie Night Film Festival: Indie Night. It is a weekly film festival that gives artists an opportunity to showcase their films and other new and established filmmakers from all over the globe. It is founded by Dave Brown.
I remember when I first saw a video clip of Dave Brown at Duane Martin’s Xen Lounge. The Lounge was packed with people that night. When I saw Dave & all of the people around him, I thought: Uh Oh! This man has started something.” Then he moved the film festival to the TCL Chinese Theater in Hollywood, CA.
Entrepreneur Indie Night - Dave Brown is still going strong. You can submit your films to Indie Night Film Festival. Indie Night Film Festival accepts submissions year around to screen in Hollywood at the TCL Chinese Theater. To learn more about the Film Festival submissions, go to indienightfilmfestival.com.

Song: The Womack Sisters Are Here
Music by: Gail Nobles
Podcast cover by: Gail Nobles
Today’s topic: The Womack Sisters
Sisters of Soul! The Womack Sisters!
The Womack Sisters were first known as Ejyptian Queen spelled Ejy instead of Egy. They gave Xen Lounge an outstanding performance once if I’m not mistaken. The Womack Sisters are also the granddaughters of Sam Cooke. The sisters are real true singers.They have great singing talent. They are singing the kind of songs that many of us are missing today. These girls are like their grandfather. They can sing , and it’s three of them. I’ve heard them sing Amazing Grace Acapella. They have that soul sound just like their grandfather.
The Womack Sisters have a song titled “Darling”. (Singing) And now they have a new single titled, “Lost For Words”. (Singing).
Y’all got to hear these girls sing if you haven’t heard them. You can find them on Spotify.com. I love their songs, and I think you will too. I think you’ll love their singing. Especially, if you’re old school, and they have a mixture of new school too. The Womack Sisters are also the nieces of Bobby Womack.
You’re listening to Lounge Hype. I’m your host, Gail Nobles. Today’s topic: The Womack Sisters, and if you’re longing for a great new sound. .. (Singing)
Lounge Hype is about lounge talent and performances.
