Marvin Gaye – “Sexual Healing” (Remix) [Prod. By Beatnick x K​-​Salaam]
Stupid dope dance refix of the Marvin Gaye “Sexual Healing!” Beatnick & K​-​Salaam get extra kudos for this. And playing it might get you up and into your go to two-step wherever you are, so listen with caution. Good times ahead.
(And that artwork… gotta love it!)

Boaz – “Intuition” (Video)
Steelers’ home’s Boaz with the dope song and video! Title track off the album “Intuition” (due out October 21, 2014). Mannnn, Pittsburgh (PA, USA) goes hard; esp. on this Beatnick & K-Salaam track. Click play and let it take you away. Yessir.
Beatnick x K-Salaam – “Checkpoints: Ghetto To Gaza” feat. Talib Kweli x M1 (Of Dead Prez) [Video]
A checkpoint, a checkpoint, everywhere a checkpoint…
The visuals for “Checkpoints” probably bring to light what most of us probably know (a reality of which we are informed or numbed enough to no longer fear): a ghetto is a ghetto. And the ghetto (be it in yesteryear Germany; or today’s Gaza or Ferguson) is where the real casualties of war take place. Where we are being killed in government sanctioned ways… oppressive poverty, lacking nutrition and education, youth roaming the streets… unprotected from danger… from those meant to protect and serve… either the government chooses to do something, or chooses NOT to do something, about what’s going on in the ghetto (here or there, now or then; no difference).
Who would speak truth on a track with themes like that? Guess. A Beatnick & K-Salaam track. Talib Kweli and M1 added on. C’mon! Single out on iTunes now. Video above. Full-length on the way.
Watch to the end.
