…but he makes dope music off it, so I ain’t mad!
The homey Brainstorm of Dyme Def won our 2008 Redbull Big Tune beat battle a while back and now he’s preparing for the finals out in NYC. Peep the preview video and get familiar with young Brainy Stacks. Shout to our runner up, Rising Son, who will also be representing Seattle in the finals. Good luck fellas!
I’ve been trying to tell y’all about Chester French for a minute now, but if you’ve been sleeping, check out their appearance on OKPtv courtesy of GregTheDude and Tunji. D.A. and Max talk about their background, their sound, and misrepresenting Inverse as “an instrumental hip-hop group” hahahah. Not exactly, but he’s still learning. Peep the clip and see why Pharrell signed these dudes immediately after hearing their demo.
Hahahaha. This was an interlude off Pack’s criminally slept on whutduzFMstand4? album and seeing some cartoon visuals to it make it even more classic. Not only do QN5 artists make great music, but they clearly have the interlude game on lock. Head on over to QN5.com for more.
I guess we should probably get back to some hip-hop related content, huh? Well, Obama is definitely hip-hop, but yeah…here’s a new interview with the homies Geo and Sabzi, collectively known as Blue Scholars. Peep some words from two of Seattle’s dopest. TBM.
Swiped from BlogsIsWatching.
Some footage of Capitol Hill here in Seattle after Barack’s our victory swiped from Blogs Is Watching. Do you realize that Obama literally had people dancing in the streets throughout the entire world? I’ve been telling you this is big. [Usual Suspects] I mean ‘orca’ big [/Keyser Soze]. We’ve never seen anything like this and it’s almost like all our mistakes have been erased. We have a chance again…
More footage from my dude Druuuu:
Dru, you need to add that Journey dance mix to the gym soundtrack ASAP.
I’ve been real sick lately, but also real inspired. I hope to blog more in the days to come, but right now work is piling up and headaches are killing me.
But guess what?
We did it.
Hahahahahah…I’m not mad at this at all.
So, in other words, vote.
If you missed the first one, click here. This time around, some of my favorite people in Hollywood get involved: Big Will, Scarlett, Justy, Harrison, Stiller, etc. LOL @ Ryan Reynolds’ Canadian ass being in there though*
*ok, so I’m still slightly salty that he married Scarlett.
Tunji wins. I’ll beeeeeeeeee dat.
It’s a beautiful thing to see some of my favorite people all working together. The homies GregTheDude and Tunji linked up with the other homies Com and Okayplayer to cook up a couple videos for y’all. In these clips, Common talks about his upcoming Universal Mind Control album, politics, his past work, and more. Hit the jump to watch the other two pieces and click here to check the last time we had Com on Sound Session.
