EPK: Stahhr Continues To Shine Her Light (Video)
Last year I directed my homie Stahhr’s video for ‘Still Dope’ which was produced by MF Doom & I was very proud to assist her with the project. It was a labor of love because I enjoyed the song & have mad respect for Stahhr over the years as one of Atlanta’s premier emcees period. We did everything literally on little to no budget but it still turned out dope. I also shot some additional footage that we were gonna use for an EPK but we never got around to getting the EPK edited after the video was completed. My West Coast homie Damu (also Stahhr’s manager) finally got the EPK completed sometime last year & uploaded it on youtube. My blog didn’t exist at the time but I know this is a perfect time to bring that video back for yall so people can get get focused again on the Queen before she drops her new project “Mother Nature With A Molotov” on Damu Music Group.

WrittenHouse – “Sticky”
WrittenHouse is one of those groups that make me extremely proud to be from Philly! Arguably one of the best groups to come out of the 215 in recent memory & further adding onto the long list of talent coming out of my hometown!

Check out this new gem called ‘Sticky’ from their upcoming debut album ‘While You Were Sleeping” due February 15th. After the jump check out a few interviews & get more familiar with Philly’s finest.

Thee Tom Hardy – Off The Radar feat. Euro (VIDEO)
I believe Thee Tom Hardy is one of 9th Wonder’s greatest finds in terms of talent. The North Carolina native dropped a very good mixtape called ‘The Secret Of The Green Magic’ with the assistance of DJ Green Lantern & it was one of my favorites of 2010. Thee Tom Hardy maybe be rather unassuming in appearance, but his witty lyricism & choice production makes him stand out amongst many of the freshmen in the game. Check out his EPK & some of the vids he dropped after the jump.
