R&B/Alternative: Coultrain – “Kiss Of Deathâ€
November 21, 2014
Off the “Side Effex Of Make​-​Believe; divided for love’s sake” EP from Coultrain, this is “Kiss Of Death.” Don’t sleep. It’s a bit of an unusual take on R&B, but give it a good listen. Words by Aaron M. Frison. Music composed by Stoney Rock. Backing vocals by Dharma Jean. With a title like “Kiss Of Death,” of course the St. Louis crooner is singing pain – about a woman.

As long as it ain’t ‘broke’ I give a f#ck what you call me…

If not, you were on the money (with yo’ unphased azz)… because your mans and them – The L.O.X. – decided to keep it simple suckaz (like ‘KISS… Jadakiss flanked by bredren Sheek Louch and Styles P).

PJ – “On My Way Home” feat. Hezekiah x Johnny Popcorn (Video)
November 7, 2014
BANGER! The beat drops hard, and the lyrics go just as hard. The story though… that’s the real story!
Visuals for “On My Way Home,†the latest offering from PJ’s “Undercover” EP, features Philly based emcee/producer Hezekiah surrounded by revolutionary imagery bathed in a cascade of flashing lights crashing against harsh landscapes of the inner city. In the video, Hezekiah tells a story of social awareness in a generation of disillusionment and one man’s warring disposition in such dire circumstances.
Johnny Popcorn is ‘chanting’ up something powerful on the track too, right?

Snoop’s Gotta Know: How High Can Kidd Kidd Get? That Question, 50 Cent, G-Unit And More On GGN (Video)
September 24, 2014
Sure they have an EP out, but why would G-Unit not have time to shoot the sh!t with Snoop on GGN. Curtis and his crew have a sit-down that blends hijinks and realness (like ‘depression is a luxury I can’t afford’ … damn, 50, deep). And when the ‘Weather with Stormy Frontz‘ segment comes on… some real THICKNESS. All with the Doggfather and his faithful followers (like us).
(And yeah, you WILL hear about how in the f#ck even Buck came back to work with 50 Cent. Remember their drama? Google that sh!t. But watch. This is a great watch!)

G-Unit – “Watch Me” (Video)
September 11, 2014
G-G-G-G… Are they still doing that? Haaa. No matter. But have you checked out that “Beauty of Independence” EP yet? Do that sh!t man. Dopeness like this on there. Visuals for the wilded out cypher-style clique track on deck above. Nice! high energy with lots o’ the eye candies scattered in there. This is for “Watch Me” by G-Unit.
Strobe & Essex – “Charades†(Produced By Jamille Malik) [Video]
September 2, 2014
How can you let your dreams turn into nightmares? It’s quite clear. You didn’t try hard enough. Or is it that you don’t care? And if you didn’t you can’t hate your boys when they shine; running in them streets when you should’ve been on your grind.
– Aural Essex
Right behind the single my folks drop the visuals AND “The Grand Arrival” (EP). Good work, fellas. Stop all the “Charades” and get on that grind…hard! Hip-Hop needs this from Boston’s finest – Aural Essex and Strobe IW. ‘Two cats from Boston, (Dorchester to be exact) who love hip-hop, anime, graffiti, and the truth,’ according to their Facebook fan page. Good dudes. Came across a good while back, listening in to Boston’s Time Travelin’ Radio (hosted by my good people DJ Nomadik and Darcie Nicole… what up ladies). Called into the show, chatted ’em up, and stayed in touch. Proud to know them.
Usually Essex is the main mic gripper; leaving the beat banging and business wrangling (for IW Records / Dorchester Univercity – label / manufacturing & merchandising) to Strobe. But on this chumpy, props given to producer Jamille Malik for music so cold I get shivers.
Well, enough from me. Watch the fellas take it to the streets in the video above. And as always, you can follow me at my Twitter handle below.

G-Unit – “Ahhh Sh!t” (Video)

You can also pick up the EP (“The Beauty of Independence”) via the link below.

Termanology – “Front Door” feat. Sean Price (Produced By Shortfyuz) [Video]
August 18, 2014
Termanology and Sean Price kick in the “Front Door” of this Hip-Hop sh**! P rapping about other emcees needing to step up the skills instead of complaining about the current state of rap. Nice. Studio and stage footage blended up for a visual presentation by Rose Glen Ent. for the latest leak off Term’s “Mas G.O.Y.A.” EP. Produced by Shortfyuz.
