Many people are dead and the there is an unimaginable amount of damage to homes, schools, and hospitals. Right now the best way to help the three million people in Haiti affected by the quake is through monetary donations. The below organizations have set up pages on their website so you can donate.
Interaction.org
Globalgiving.org
Unicefusa.org
I've also united with my fellow bloggers by posting the banner at the top of the page. Simply click on the bright yellow Yele Haiti banner to donate.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the People of Haiti!

J. Cole @ Indulj

The first time I ever heard of J. Cole was on my homeboy's blog Sleep is the Cousin of Death. I have to admit I was late and sleepin' on the kid. After downloading and listenting to his mixtape I definitely think he is official. Checkout the below pics of him at Indulj last week. *Shoutout to T.A. for putting me on!* Oh and if you haven't already go read my fellow bloggers post on J.Cole...Stupid Dope Fresh Lyrics.


J. Cole...the man himself.


What a cute pic!


Hey Anwaa...EliteDC Mag


Why do all guys do the "pointed finger" thing in pics? LOL

Hands down the best DJ in the DMV...Alizay!

Wanna See My TATTOO?

Here at EyeSPyZ we always try to make sure that our readers stay informed of whats HAUTE in the DMV..and yes that includes Tattoo a new edgy, hip, rock & roll theme bar.

I hope all my rock star readers are ready to sport their latest and sexiest tattoos and or tramp stamps *giggle*. Cuz Monday night at this bar is gonna be one hell of a PARTY!

Taz Events, LGI, and Talk of DC (some of the DC's HAUTEST promoters) bring you "Viva La Vida" at Tattoo (1413 K Street, NW) Monday, January 4th.

I hope this isn't your first experience with needles....you know the ones DJ Quicksilva use to rock out to when he transitions from one song to the next. If so, you're definitely in for a special treat. Oh, did I mention that this experience is on Taz, LGI, and Talk of DC? (FREE COVER)

Make sure you do your best to dress the part cuz some of the Ravens' finest "artwork" (Willis McGahee and Dawan Landry) will be in attendance. Don't worry because there will be plenty of other ballers to keep you visually entertained as well. Ladies you better WERK!

EYE C U: Hogates NYE Edition

Let's EAT!

Oh yes..it's that time again! DC Restaurant week is back January 11 - 17, and we all know we like to eat! If you haven't had the opportunity or the budget to check some of the best restaurants in town, this is your chance! Some of the finest restaurants will be serving three course lunch ($20.10) or dinner ($30.10) meals at a fixed price. EyeSPyZ suggest you take advantage of Restauant week and go to a place that you normally could not afford. Make sure you go to opentable.com to see a full list of participating restaurants and to make a reservation. If you don't know what restuarant to pick, below are a few of my favorites:

• Asia Nine


• Co Co Sala


• Mie N Yu


• Oya Restaurant and Lounge

Lebron: Is it Chalk, Baby Powder, or Rosin?

I'm sure we are all familiar with Lebron's recurring acts of throwing and clapping baby powder everywhere before a game. But I always wondered, is it for a better grip, for show, or is he just being a copycat? It doesn't matter to me because I'll be watching my Wiz Kids take on the Cavs tonight. Hopefully they can come out with a W and ruin Lebron's party at Josephines tonight! Oh YES, you read correctly King James will be hosting Josephines tonight with the UBER HAUTE promoters Dave & Ray. But do make sure to get there early or you might be stuck outside. Personally, I really just want to see Shaq and Gilbert on the court together!!! By now I'm sure yall have heard the ins and outs of the Shaq + Gilbert Arenas' fiance story. Will they fight tonight? Will Gil give Shaq the double side eye 0_O ? LMAO..will Laura Govan be courtside???????? Whether you are at the Verizon Center or Josephines tonight..I'm sure both will be crackin!

Happy Humday,

EyeSPyZ

Read the below Twitter convo that happend last night between DMV's own Wale and Darnell Dockett (Arizona Cardinals Defensive Tackle.) Wale's album Attention Deficit is in stores TODAY (go get it!) ...Read below what Darnell has to say about it. Was his comment out of line? Or was it just "Real Talk"? All I'm saying is this..If you are from the DMV show love and support!

Darnell Dockett: Look I'm not buying no wale cd, unless he Featuring JEZZY on every song that's REAL TALK. And FYI jeezy cd coming soon!

Eye C U: Mio Lounge Edition

Promoters, Ballers, and Reality TV Stars made it out to Mio Lounge on Saturday. Of course EyeSPyZ was in attendance. Full Recap of the new spot coming soon...meanwhile enjoy the pics below.


Visanthe Shiancoe of the Minesota Vikings..he always looks off for some reason.


Uh oh...Ryan of DreamTeam nation in da building! Get it boo-boo!


My FAVORITE DJ Alizay ..in the Paul Bunyan shirt!

Look who we have here... DeAngelo who didn't make the band! Guess he's become a clubber?

EyeSPyZ favorite promoters Dave & Ray..HAUTE!

Andray Blatche: Professional Baller and BOXER!

One of my many EyeSPyZ sent me an email about a fight that occured at Stir Lounge last night! Apparently Andray Blatche of the Washington Wizards was fighting! Word is arms and hands were all over the place..LMAO! OMG Andray..how old are we? You are a professional basketball player and you're in the club fighting! SMGOSHDH! You don't have the sense God gave ya. When is he going to learn to stay out of the club!! It's nothing but TROUBLE!

Sidebar: Was any of my readers there? Send me pics!!!!!! LOL! For some reason I imagine that this fight was HILARIOUS!

Monday Night Football..where do u go to watch?

Do you guys stay home or go out to watch Monday Night Football? Here is my list of spots that you might want to check out tonight.

Bar Louie -701 7th Street NW, looooveee this spot! It has a wide selection of appetizers and flavored beers. Speaking of beer...for MNF there is a big Guinness promo going on. Get there and have a pint of Guinness on the house. I know, I know, Guinness is nasty..but it's free! :)

Rhino Bar - 3295 M St NW, I like this place because it has two separate levels. U know..so you can separate the fans of either team! They have 29 TV's and 3 HD screens so you don't have to worry about being able to see the game. They also do 10 cent wings for MNF which are pretty tasty and a good size! Make your way here if your in the mood for cheap food and drinks... and your typical Georgetown crowd.

Fly Lounge - 1802 Jefferson Place, NW...More people go here to party then to watch the game! However, if you are in the Connecticut Ave area stop by and view the game on all screens. The place is rather small and their are few table and few seats. But that encourages mingling and the after game party makes up for Fly's small interior.

Happy Monday, EyeSPyZ!

Eye C U: Eyebar Edition

Fellas, is it ever really OK to have an almost empty bottle of NUVO in ur hand? Hey I'm just saying....


Nick Young and Andray Blatche of the Wizards. I swear I better not see their *sses in the club during basketball season.


Why do I look at this picture and laugh? It's like Andray is hugging his hair..lol.
