Mac Miller – Diablo (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on September 6th, 2014 by Hyphen

I mentioned this on Twitter when Mac Miller’s last mixtape, Faces, dropped, but I’m kinda worried for dude.  He’s really talented (people sleep on the production skills too), but he seems to be in a pretty dark place.  You can’t go more than a few bars on the tape without hearing a drug reference and while he’s always been on that vibe, it seems excessive…and dangerous…lately.

That said, the music is still quality, as evidenced by “Diablo.”  Truthfully, I’m all in on any beat that samples “In A Sentimental Mood,” but Mac’s rhymes are on point here too.  This one line seems to sum up what may have brought Mac to this dark place though: “the industry a lie, all the promises were hollow.”

Mac Miller (REALLY) freestyling on Cosmic Kev’s show (video)

Posted in Artists, Live Performances, Other Peoples' Interviews, Videos on October 4th, 2011 by Hyphen

Mac takes a lot of heat from hip-hop heads, mainly because his fan base is heavily comprised of young white kids. However, as his hype continues to build, he’s been winning over more and more cats, which is sure to continue when his upcoming mixtape with Jazzy Jeff drops.  Plus, if he keeps making appearances like this, spitting a better, legitimate, off the dome freestyle at 2:25 than a TON of these underground lyrical miracle cats I know, he’ll be in great shape.

Go head Mac, killin’ em.

Rapsody ft. Mac Miller – Extra, Extra (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on May 27th, 2011 by Hyphen

I shouldn’t have watched this video before eating dinner, because now I want to hit up a diner for that good, good (chicken tenders + milkshake = win). One of my favorite up and coming MC’s, Rapsody, links up with Mac for this Khrysis produced track. Straightforward, no-nonsense, fun, and dope. Can’t beat it.

Now where are those chicken tenders…
