Murs live at Amoeba Music

Posted in Artists, Live Performances on December 19th, 2008 by Hyphen

I think I remember seeing this footage go around the blogs back at the end of September, but I never posted it up for some reason.  As I mentioned in the post on his Sound Session appearance, Murs is one of the hardest working artists out there.  He consistently puts his all into his live performances, and that’s on display here in the footage from Amoeba’s Hollywood store.  Peep the video and watch him run through tracks like “Better Than The Best,” “H-U-S-T-L-E,” “Bad Man,” “Can It Be,” “Silly Girl,” “Lookin’ Fly,” and more.

Thanks to Paul for sending this through.

Murs – Can It Be (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on October 9th, 2008 by Hyphen

Dope new video for the lead single from Murs‘ latest album, Murs For President, which is in stores now.  I hate when I get chased by acrobatic parkour experts wearing gimp masks too.  But on the serious tip:

“I coulda done a Nas and screamed “hip-hop is dead”/
I got up off my ass and I did something instead/
Signed with the devil, brought the scene up a level/
Killed the beast from within, I’m a born again rebel”

That sums up Sound Session perfectly.  I’ve always said that we’re like Neo operating within the Matrix.

Anyway, Murs will be here in Seattle on Saturday for a show with Kidz In The Hall at Nectar.  Before that, I’ll be linking up with him…any questions y’all want me to ask?
