We got wind of a big chess tournament happening with some of the big names in hip hop, so of course we had to see what this was all about. Turns out the Hip Hop Chess Federation was putting on the inaugural Chess Kings Invitational, an event with the brightest young minds of chess competing for scholarships and the big belt. Chess, hip hop music and martial arts are the elements that build life strategies according to founder Adisa Banjoko. Irina gets the scoop behind the 64 squares and meets legends PopMaster Fabel of the Rock Steady Crew and The RZA of the Wu-Tang Clan among others.

  • what song is this? artist?

  • the song is Life Strategies by DLabrie. check myspace for more of his stuff.

  • I'm sorry but this lady is an idiot, straight up and down. Talking about "playing dance" to the VP of the Rock Steady Crew?? And calling Monk "Rugged Man"? Next time please get someone more competent to do the interviews. It was good to see some footage from the event though.

  • metamike, why you gotta hate? no one was like that at the event and Irina got and gave lots of love from everyone there.
