A Video worth watching: “Destroy” by @C_Rayz_Walz (Video & MP3)

Destroy (C-Rayz Walz) from Nicolas Heller on Vimeo.

This video speaks mountains. To watch A Shabazz on Shabazz (Ricky on Waleed, pause) video in the middle of naptown (Indianapolis) train tracks with C Rayz running over what can be argues as one of his best songs is amazing to me. I recall the video of Homeboy Sandman crawling out the womb with 2hungrybros. For one man who is known to be shooting the gun rather than being exposed to one, the boom bap drums of animals turning on humans with berettas (or glocks , pardon me for any lack of knowledge on gun types) to the face makes him light hearted, to the other side of a stick up kid.

Evidence, Cats & Dogs (Review)

Evidence

Cats & Dogs

Released by Rhymesayers


Evidence is that dude. Many heads point to 2007's Weatherman as one of hip-hop's recent treasures. That first solo project, with production from Sid Roams, The Alchemist, Jake One, Babu & Ev (all of whom are back on this one, save Jake One), had a refreshingly crisp sonic blueprint, heavy on the spacy synths and brimming with soul. Having now made a switch from the lost-at-sea ABB to Rhymesayers with a Layover (EP) in between, everything is back in order for the dilated one to drop another top-drawer record.

4 new dope/ different videos: @kylerapps @realtalibkweli @sirahone @_ASAProcky @Luckyovlegends (Video & MP3)

I have been searching for some dope videos that have nothing to do with each other, and I seem to find 2 great ones.
One features Kyle Rapps w/ Talib kweli in a awesome audition that features NYC acts like Diwon and Y Love and Jah C tryin out for the part of…well. something famous?
Universe Traveler plays over the beat of French Duo “Air” and has Talib doing what he does best…talking about travelling the world!

Our other video features Sirah, an LA songstress that mixes some indie pop over some feel good LA picnic steez. Double Yellow Lines is much different than Kyle Rapps’ video. Kissing little dogs and picnic baskets and partly shaven heads, might not be your thing. I am def into picnic baskets on bikes though. Good move Sirah….
