The Wu classic Only Built For Cuban Linx aka "The Purple Tape" turns 20 years this year and us Hip Hop nerds were blessed with a teaser for a film which will be part of that 20th anniversary celebration. 

The Purple Tape Files will give us fans the in-depth story behind the making of the album, as well as a little Wu-Tang Clan history, during that era.

It was a night full of pampering, natural hair seminars, confidence building, and free Vodka cocktails of course - at Dapney J's Beauty Bar! 

Sponsored by Exclusiv Vodka, the attendees were treated to Fashion & Beauty advice, Intimacy tips, and tunes by Jersey's finest DJ Ran. 

It proved to be a very empowering and positive event filled with wonderful prizes as well! 

And check out Daphney J. who worked the room with a gorgeous jumpsuit thanks to Fashion Editor and Stylist Enaya Kenchen

It was another successful Bar Crawl for the team here at Social-Butta-Fly! Our latest event was a Birthday kick-off for Queens native and professional B-ball player Teddy Thelemaque (aka Shot-Good) 

Teddy was looking for a chill night out with his homies and what a chill and amazingly fun night it was! 

We started the night pre-gaming at 12th St. Ale House. Then preceded to soak up some of that alcohol with a few sliders from Mark Burger. Followed by several rounds of Henny and Red Bull (The drink of the night) at La Linea. Then ending the crawl with drinks and multiple rounds of pool at Skinny Bar and Lounge in the LES. A perfect mix of drinks, food and entertainment!

A Good Ass Night indeed! Check out some of the highlights...

"I want to thank SOCIAL BUTTA FLY for setting up my pre-birthday celebration! I was taken to 4 different locations where I drank for cheap in NYC!!! Which is very rare. You can't beat that! I recommend SOCIAL BUTTA FLY to anyone from NYC looking to hang out in places you would normally turn down. Also recommend people from out of town to reach out to SOCIAL BUTTA FLY to get a dope and  inexpensive taste of NYC! You won't regret it!" -  Ted

Nothing but positive vibes at this month's edition of Groove Candy! We shook off the cold and quickly warmed up to one too many at the open rum punch bar! 'Tanya Morgan' MC Donwill, DJ Cipha Sounds and DJ BenHaMeen created an old school basement party vibe spinning 90's classics.

Look out for the next event in February! This is quickly becoming one of the most popular after-work events in NYC!

Shearling coats are not only trendy but very warm as well. You can wear a Shearling coat with a long maxi skirt to dress it up or some jeans and sneakers for a more casual look. 

Here is how I wore mine that I scored from Express on clearance for $40 almost 5 years ago.

You can find these coats at  your local 

Forever 21, Banana Republic, and H&M! 

It's Friday night, after-work and you want a drink. A real drink. Not some fruity, tropical, sunrise breeze thing. But a drink! When I want to enjoy a few Jameson and beers with the boys, this is the go-to spot. This is more of a throwback, old New York bar so you’re not going to get the glitz and glam. There won’t be a DJ in the back. There’s not going to be any food. But what you are going to get are the following three things: A relaxed space to hang out with your friends, dirt cheap prices, and straight-up drinks.

The dirt cheap prices start at happy hour - every day of the week. Prices don’t get much cheaper than this — $2.50 well drinks; $3.50 drafts beers; $3 call drinks. Every weekday, 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., and weekends 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. Hard to beat in NYC! Perfect if you're looking for a reliable pre-game location. 

It's also one of the few bars you can score some decent brews like Captain Lawrence and Allagash along with a few local beers like Brooklyn Lager.  

This is a great, laid-back bar. It's a dive bar so again don't go in expecting anything fancy. Start your night here and you won't regret it. And remember, Cash Only
