The Official Recap of the Watch The Throne Release Party At Liv

So um, yeah. If you’re reading this, you probably want to know what the hell happened at LIV last night for Kanye and Jay-Z’s Watch The Throne release party. Well we got you covered. Consider this your official recap courtesy of me. Oh and don’t be fooled, I was nowhere near LIV. Once I heard Kanye was most likely not gonna make it and stuck lampin’ in Europe, I stayed the fuck home and watched In The Flow With Affion Crocket on the internet. Which was hilarious by the way! Especially the Dave Chappelle skit.

So no I was not at LIV. I got all of my LIV updates just like er’body else – via Twitter and via text messages. So yeah, here’s what seems to have happened last night.

1. Lines started forming in front of LIV, inside the Fountainebleau lobby at like 3PM. Pictures started floating around garnishing tens of thousands of views of the growing crowds so early on. God help those people if they parked in the Fountainebleau’s valet. Pull out that checkbook if you went over 3 hours. And wow, they put in a 3PM to 5am shift to go clubbing at LIV. That’s 14 hours.

2. The door price was astronomical at 11PM and kept climbing I heard. The guys had to pay more, but the ladies weren’t far behind. If you averaged it out, it was a couple hundred dollars for general admission into a club on a Sunday in the middle of August. By the time you got in, you had no more money to buy drinks. Yep…dat shit cray. Some people got a pair of Made-In-China LIV Shutter Sunglasses though.

3. The tweets streaming on Twitter leading up to this party were epic. From the people warning groupies to get on their A-Game, to the folks who made it inside sounding like they just finished running a marathon. It was all comedy. I was there reading that shit while sipping on some hot green tea. Hilarity. *NOTE: I don’t drink green tea while reading the internet folks, just a joke.

4. The inside of LIV was how do I say….in my best Drew Barrymore voice….magical. As it always is. And how cute, there was a throne on stage. You know because its a Watch The Throne release party. Get it? Got it? Good.

5. Julia Beverly, Baller Allert, NecoleBitchie and Freshalina from Crunktastical were in the house reppin’. These ladies kept Twitter pleasantly entertained throughout the night, with Julia pointing out that rather than spending $25,000 on a nice mid-size vehicle, cats were spending that on a temporary table at LIV last night. Yep…dat shit cray.

6. No Heat players disgraced us by showing up. None of them were in the building. Thank the lawd.

7. The lovely bottle service waitresses can all pretty much retire after all that money they made last night. Combine their winnings with what they made off Mark Cuban’s expenditure at LIV two months ago – and they are set foe’ life.

8. Speaking of outdoing Mark Cuban, Jay-Z showed up presidential style. Steve Stoute was part of the posse. And yes, they eventually broke Mark Cuban’s record and spent $250,000 on tons of Ace Of Spades, including one of those infamous 15L bottles. And thus, when it came out in the bottle casket, a million twitpics hit Twitter and we were all satisfied. Smh. America, what happened to us? Srsly.

9. Kanye never had any intentions of coming to LIV. He was in Sweden fresh off a performance with Prince. So he was a no-show apparently because his flight got canceled due to bad weather. Nah. We all know Ye’ would much rather have stayed in Sweden with a couple white gul’s by his side and let The Artist Formely Known As Prince make him some pancakes for breakfast. Pancakes. [twitpic]

10. Ne-Yo showed up though, as well as Flo-Rida and Fat Joe apparently. Also in the mix was Puff Daddy’s (I refuse to call him Diddy) baby momma Kim Porter. And tons of industry folk.

11. Jay-Z posed for like one photo, next to Mike Gardner and WWWes. Other than that, you woulda’ had your head cracked with a Ace Of Spades bottle if you even attempted to take a photo of Jay-Z.

12. On a positive note, DJ Clue, Stevie J and Don P held it down on the music tip for the entire night.

13. When it was time for the birthday boy Jay-Z to get on the mic, Jay did a Rick Ross grunt (*ungh*) on the mic, and Meek Mill quickly interrupted him, took the mic and started to perform. You know, because a Meek Mill performance of “I’m A Boss” at a Watch The Throne release party totally makes sense. *NOTE: Due to the person that commented below, I should note that this was a joke. Meek Mill didn’t snatch the mic..at all. He came through like a boss and performed on the booth and livened up the crowd like he has been since hitting up the Miami club circuit the last couple months. Nothing more nothing less. Its just a joke people.*

14. 8am Monday morning, LIV managers and security took all that money they made last night and deposited it to their bank account. Laughing all the way to Le Bank.

Le End. Watch The Throne available on iTunes and retail stores everywhere…

  • http://www.the305.com Dro

    lol. Yo its not that serious, this was all written as a joke man. Green tea and all. The fuck a grown man gonna drink green tea for? The tone of the article should’ve clearly given you the clue to not take the article so serious

    From what I heard, Meek did his thing. As he always does. I”ve seen him perform three times already and he kills it everytime. And as far as not getting in, dawg, like I said, I didn’t go by choice. I’m in if I wanted to be in homie.

    But again, the article is all jokes man.

    Lol, if someone doesn’t get the satirical nature behind this post, I feel sorry for their future as a human being. But I guess the words “hater” and bitch” are the best ways to insult someone while, in the process, making yourself look ignorant in all caps while managing to not even spell your own name correctly.

  • Sara

    Love this post…pure comedy enjoyed the sarcasam…n I love this site keep doing your thing…

  • OB

    @dro… keep it up man…great post

    “hater or bitch”……. oh boy, that guy needs a hug or needs to read a book!

  • LB

    WHATS WITH ALL THE GREEN TEA HATE? Studies show that it has a lot of long term health benefits. lol

  • Andrew

    This site is whats up & always does the best at repping Miami and keep us informed about what going down in our town..Dro Ive been reading your blog for about 4 years now and trust me that aint about to change, Keep up the good shit! and btw this article is fuckin hilarious. I cant believe how stupid some folk are and take this shit serious..

  • hatian fress

    FIRST UP HAHA.. JOKE :) OK

    1. THE HEADLINE SAYS”OFFICIAL RECAP” NOT “OFFICIAL JOKE BLOG”

    2.MAKE BAD JOKES AND WHEN YOU GET POINTED OUT FOR HOW BAD THEY ARE SAY “I WAS JUST JOKING” OR “IT WAS SARCASM ” .

    3. I have to commend you on your sarcastic description of a release party for an album by some of the greatest artist of our generation if not ever and no doubt one of the biggest events of this summer in our city(the305).probably that’s why Miami(the305) is sometimes viewed as a third world tourist destination/location. Not where we have good *journalism*,artist, clubs, djs ,models, blogs, people.

    4. Im not a green teA hater..thats SARCASM JUST A JOKE ASK DRO..
    just sarcastically saying he may need to try Ginko tea or Laxative tea..Its just a joke though

    5. HAHA DRO SAID “And as far as not getting in, dawg, like I said, I didn’t go by choice. I’m in if I wanted to be in homie.”.
    Question the blogs called the305, you blog about stuff in or related to the305/Miami and surrounding areas? Right? How could an event of this level be in the305/Miami and you have a choice to go and you don’t? Instead, drank green tea and watched a movie? I HOPE YOU AT LEAST HAD ONE OF THOSE “305HONEYS” WITH YOU LIKE ——>

    http://the305.com/2011/08/08/with-that-said-our-honey-of-the-day-nicole-mejia/

    6. DID YOU BLOG ABOUT ACE HOOD ALBUM RELEASE AT MANSION?

    7. Jay-z did an “ugh” like Ross..Jay-z has been doin an “ugh” since Reasonable Doubt especially on the Last BLUE PRINT 3..Ross Rider..joke..in the boss city wouldnt you pay a lil homage to Rozaay ?

    8. You came across like Meek Mill shouldn’t have performed at the Hip-Hop Hystory “Watch the Throne” album release party..if you chose not to be there and Meek felt the promotion and respect was worth his presents and performance give respect not sarcasm..( Plus we need that Boss remix with Jay-z on it )

    9. Jay-z should have spent that money and buy THE305.com from Dro so instead of the305 he can do a drosarcasmblog.com

    10. I dont have anymore time to write about this.thanks Headliner, Liv and whoever made it possible next time please give dro couple press passes and bottle of green tea so he can ball too..

    10. HERE ARE SOME OTHER BLOGS THAT MIGHT HAVE DONE A BETTER JOB OF DESCRIBING AND INTERNATIONAL EVENT SUCH AS THIS ALBUM’S RELEASE PARTY

    THANKS REALLY THIS SITE DOES A GOOD JOB IM JUST A BIG HIP HOP, JAY-Z , MEEK MILL, ROSS, THE305 FAN AND WAS DISAPPOINTED WITH YOUR “OFFICIAL RECAP”

  • http://www.the305.com Dro

    cool you win.

    i think you might very well be the only person that took it as an “official” recap homie. if you’ve followed the site, then you know i do these from time to time. lighthearted recap written with bad jokes. yes they’re bad, you got me. i mean this article and then the jay-z interview mp3 talking about the event that i originally posted FIRST on the305, only got picked up by every major music and hip hop website including mtv, thisis50, billboard and some of the sites you mentioned, out of the 100′s that reposted it from the305 and crediting the site as well. shit, one of them you mentioned straight took pieces of my recap and the mp3 without crediting me. so sorry if i represented this “”worldwide event” you speak of so poorly.

    life aint this serious man. satire is satire. a joke is a joke.

    p.s. and yes, i chose to not go. as press or as a regular folk. i didn’t go cuz it just wasn’t ……wait for it….it just wasn’t my cup of tea. *rim shot* lol…

  • Brr

    Green tea is the shit. You’re a fool if you think otherwise.
