"Grand opening!" "Grand closing!" These two words grace South Sound hip-hop music venue posters too often, many times within two months. Somebody with an attitude, somebody messin' with somebody's somebody or somebody trippin' in general - dope hip-hop shows or parties disappear because somebody acts "ignint." This isn't the case for DJ Hawkskee's parties. He's a FOR REAL party rockin' DJ. If you're not familiar with Hawkskee, he'll be spinning at New World VIP Lounge's Stop Light Party Friday night. He invites you to introduce yourself and share your relationships status by dress code.  Yes, your dress shall reveal your availability: wear red (taken), yellow (single, depending on who's asking) or green (let's get it!). A cool concept party to start 2014 with one of the dopest DJs in the Puget Sound. Hey, you might meet somebody who you like or someone who likes to stalk you.

STOP LIGHT PARTY, w/DJ Hawkskee, 9 p.m., New World VIP Lounge, 8722 South Tacoma Way, cover charge, Lakewood, 253.589.6611
