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.

Strobe x Essex – “Outstanding” (Video)
July 3, 2012
Maaannnn! Strobe and Essex seem unstoppable! Here they are with another heater, “Outstanding.” It seems like they just hit us with a banger the other week…because they just did! You saw it posted here (“Religion”). Shout out to DJ Nomadik (and partner-in-crime Darcie Nicole) from The Bean (a.k.a. the Greater Boston area) for putting me onto these Hip-Hop phenoms. Shout out to Brandon Bellinger, Dorcester UniverCity Films, for directing yet another dope video for these two from I.W. crew. Strobe and Essex have this cut available for download (click here), too. So, there is no reason to not have “Outstanding” music in your ears this summer. Do it, Mon. Do it!

Strobe and Essex of I.W. come through with more hotness for you! Scuttlebutt from The Bean is that the fellas are working up a video for this song; but that does not mean I would dare hold this banger from you while we wait. Check out “Religion” and click here to go back to the “Jewlery” video post to get your up top Bean Town “East Coast Overdose” (swiped that last part from Jay Force HAAAA)!
