More freshness from the town.  A little NSFW though, so be careful if you peep it at the office.  Dyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyme Def!

ahhhh, the homies!  Good times y’all…

206 stand up!  New video from some of the best here in the NW.  Be on the lookout for Dyme Def headed up and down the west best coast with Sai real soon.

Town bidness mayne…shout to 800lb.

Everybody seems to be getting down on this instrumental (shout to Drake especially), but this is the first video I’ve seen over it.  Big shout to Brain, Dyme Def, and the whole Soul Gorilla/800LB fam.  Gotta love the Kingdome footage at the end.  206 all day.

Sidenote:  I’m mad busy this week, semi-sick, and will be headed to Oregon this weekend…so blogging might be at a premium for the next few days.  Hold tight…

…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!
