I’ve been working so hard lately that I can relate to the song title. Also, I’ll count that Dorian Gray reference as a shout out hahaha. What up OU & 6th! Great record fellas…
Never Say Never…and better late than never! My apologies for the delay in posting this, especially since I was rocking to it for a minute before it dropped. The homey Outasight is one of the illest up and coming artists in the game, and he continually drops free music for y’all to enjoy. Buy his rookie card now while the price is cheap.

New visuals off OU’s Never Say Never mixtape, which I’ll post up momentarily. Shout to OU, 6th, Cook, and all the homies that pop up in this video of his travels over the past year. In related news, I think the man partly responsible for signing Outasight to Warner (through Asylum) just got bumped up to the CEO of WBR today. I hope this means they push Outasight like they should!
After dropping the teaser, the homies Outasight, 6th Sense, and GregTheDude present the new video for “Catch Me If You Can” off OU’s excellent Further project. Hanging out with these cats at SXSW was definitely one of the highlights for me.
The homies are killin’ it!
Fellow 5-C alum, Greg The Dude, linked up with Outasight for the “Catch Me If You Can” video off his Further project (download here!). Peep the trailer for a glimpse at the upcoming release, on that Bourne Identity type steez…
I know I’m a little late on this, especially since I’ve been bumping the tape non-stop ever since OU sent it out, but better late than never. Outasight is one of my favorite artists these days and this project shows exactly why. He’s a dope MC, vocalist, and is forward thinking with his art. Plus he’s just a cool dude. Download this immediately:

Congrats to Outasight for recently signing to Asylum/Warner Bros. Records as well. I hear the head of WBR is personally really excited about the signing, so it looks like they might actually give him the push he deserves in 2010…
If you name drop me in an interview, there’s a good chance I’ll post it up on TAOD hahaha. 4:53 ftw!
Nah, but for real, Outasight and 6th are two of my favorite artists these days and people are starting to recognize the incredible talent they possess. If you’re still in the dark, peep the interview with Terry Urban (what up Mick!) for some good background info and be sure to download one of the best songs of the year too:
Flawless record.
I’ve been waiting for Daytona’s official album to drop for a minute and the day is finally here. Don’t get it twisted either…despite my blog tag calling Come Fly With Me a mixtape, this is indeed a full length project full of original material…and it’s dope as hell. Peep the press release if you need to get up to speed on Daytooooooooona and then download the project below.
New York, NY – The Kid Daytona, born in Atlanta, GA to a set of Caribbean parents, grew up with a unique blend of cultural identities, which was only further expanded by his teenage years in The Bronx, NY. It was these formative years in New York’s northern borough that led The Kid Daytona to his current path as a musician — and the June 30th release of his full length studio album, Come Fly With Me.
The flight path leading to the release of Come Fly With Me has been a long one. The Kid Daytona attained early success when his group The Aces was signed to Atlantic Records in 2002. Though the group dismantled shortly thereafter, Daytona managed to establish himself in the eyes of legendary MC Busta Rhymes, who quickly enlisted the young artist for a role in Flipmode Squad. In addition to Busta Rhymes, Daytona has also been blessed with the guidance of Cipha Sounds (Hot 97 WQHT), who has helped create the dynamic artist that appears on Come Fly With Me. Daytona and Cipha started out by releasing A Tribe Called Fresh in 2008, which garnered the attention of major media outlets like The Fader. Daytona explains that, “the success of the Tribe tape helped me realize it was time to put an official album together. I want people to be able to hear my music, and this is best way for me to make that happen – by making it available, and doing it well.â€
On Come Fly With Me, The Kid Daytona shares airspace with musical superstars such as Bun B (UGK), Kardinal Offishall, and seasoned newcomers such as Mickey Factz, Amanda Diva, Harlem’s Cash, Outasight, and more. Production credits for the album include 6th Sense, Double 0 (Kidz In The Hall), Cook Classics, Jet Audio, Ill Bomb, The Government, and Deputy.
Both Come Fly With Me and its single, “Contact†featuring Kardinal Offishall, will be distributed digitally by Community JUICE beginning Tuesday, June 30, 2009.

I still wanna be Jazzy Jeff when I grow up.
As I alluded to here, The Kid Daytona is one of the nicest MC’s doing it right now and I’m anxiously awaiting his debut album, Come Fly With Me. To help set up the project and make sure that people are aware of the talent, he’s teamed up with Mick Boogie to drop The Daytona 500. Each track flips the same legendary sample that Ghostface used (Bob James’ “Nautilus”), but Daytona and his stable of producers make each joint different and their own. You need to download this immediately.
