Yes We Can....Party?

Disclaimer: Where there is work done well, there is a party to celebrate.


There is no place like Washington for the next two weeks, and quite possibly the next 4 years. Next week, Barack Obama will officially become the 44th President of the United States. I have lived here my entire life and have never seen the mayhem anticipated in the streets of downtown DC.

Starting on Friday, I will begin personal coverage of the inaugural celebrations. The festivities begin for me at Jay Z's Inaugural Gala. Presented by the well-known entertainment and lifestyle group Team BBC, these celebrations promise to be ones to remember.

But wait! It doesn't stop there.

Continuing throughout the weekend, Team BBC is bringing P.Diddy, T.I., Young Jeezy, Akon, Common, as well as hip hop legends Doug E. Fresh, Slick Rick, Biz Markie, and Kid Capri to the nation's capitol. It simply does not get any better.

But ladies and gentleman as you grab your tickets and assemble your attire, do me a favor and keep in mind the reason we are celebrating. It's not about the glitz and the glamour, but it's about the change we created together.

Pick your party from the list below. I look forward to seeing you.
