On January 9th, 2010, Nike and Brand Jordan sponsored Elementos, produced by Project 2050, in Rio De Janiero, Brazil. There was a b-ball tournament, dunk contest, b-boy circle, live graf, fusbol action, skateboarding, and no doubt miggety me on the wheels towards the end of the day spinning some soul and rhythms for the heads. Check out this clip from LUB TV of some of the action!
Shout out to Dom Filo, president of LUB and OG Rio DJ first responsible for playing US soul/funk to the crowd there dating back to 1970!

The city is called “Rio de JANEIRO”, not “janiero”.
Janeiro stands for January in Portuguese.
