The Audacity of Dope

Now THIS is how you make a music video. Bam’s …one rifle per family is available here.

On this week’s episode of SNSS, we were joined in studio by a few homies who have linked up for group projects: Parker (of State of the Artist) & Lace Cadence talked about their new EP, Imagination, and Prometheus Brown (aka Geologic of Blue Scholars) joined forces with Bambu to speak on their new group, The Bar.  Along with our guests, we played new music from artists like Slaughterhouse, Saigon, Dee-1, J. Cole, Miguel, Kev Brown, The Wurxs, STS, Mr. J. Medeiros, and more.

Enjoy!

The first video from Geo & Bam’s Prometheus Brown & Bambu Walk Into A Bar joint project talks about where their families are from…and where they’re at now.  Dopeness.

I was recently thinking about this Delorean “Dear Langston” record that I posted a few years ago and wondered what ever happened to the group.  Turns out, they’ve renamed themselves DLRN (perhaps because of these guys?) and they’re definitely still around.  Here’s their latest work featuring the homey Geo.

DLRN proudly presents the visual accompaniment for the track “Reset” off their second EP The Bridge.  The track features the Blue Scholars’ Prometheus Brown and Illecism of Fly High.  Filmed for several days underneath the sweltering Mojave Desert sun, the video was directed by Sami Abdou of Faux Real Productions and filmed by Tim Jenkins.  Conceptualized and written by Abdou, the music video gives a modern take on the old spaghetti Westerns of the 60’s.

DLRN is currently hard at work preparing the third installment of their EP trilogy to be released next year. Until then, The Bridge & No More Heroes is still available for download at http://dlrn.bandcamp.com.
