The Original GoodLife Cafe was host to a weekly open-mic workshop known as the Underground Radio. Located at the corner of Crenshaw and Exposition in the heart of Los Angeles. More info coming soon.

Project Blowed: Since 1994 The Project Blowed has been putting it down for Hip Hop. Open Mics, B-Boys, B-Girls, Good Hip Hop. Back in the late 80's there was The Goodlife Café in Leimert Park, which was an Open mic spot. No cussing was allowed. You were allowed to do one song. If you were wack, much like with the Apollo, you'd get PLEASE PASS THE MIC'd (similar to being booed, but not as offensive).

An enormous amount of artists came up in the ranks there, such as Aceyalone, Kurupt of Dogg Pound, RBX, The Visionaries, Of Mexican Descent, Busdriver, Abstract Rude, Pigeon John, Dilated Peoples, among many others. The Goodlife Cafe is something legendary in the History of L.A. Hip Hop. A few years later, it continued as the "Project Blowed". Leimert Park and 43rd is the spot. Every Thursday night you can find it popping off. It's still a staple in the name of Los Angeles Hip Hop. Not only is it a weekly Open Mic, but it's also a crew. An amazing crew, at that. The members include Medusa, Freestyle Fellowship, 2Mex, Busdriver, C.V.E., Living Legends, Trendseta, Hip Hop Clan, Volume, and many many more. Their extended family is crazy, too. Hieroglyphics, Pharcyde and Jurassic 5, to name a few. A more in-depth bio and mission statement will follow soon.
