I’ve been meaning to post this up for a minute, but better late than never. Nottz Raw is one of the illest producers out there, but if didn’t realize he can spit too, peep this track off his upcoming album You Need This Music. VA stand up!
As I mentioned, Malice and Pusha T recently made their second appearance on Sound Session, dropping by last month to chop it up with yours truly. We talked extensively about their upcoming Till The Casket Drops album, including breakdowns of their singles with Kanye West, Cam’ron, and Pharrell. They also looked back on their past work, detailed the success of their Play Cloths fashion line, doled out advice to younger artists, and much more.
To listen to the entire interview, including a lot of topics we didn’t include in the video above, peep:
The homegirl KayCee from The Shameless Plug hooked up with the homeboys Thurz & Y-O when they went out to VA a little while back. Check out the resulting interview to hear the fellas talk about their background, the curse of the “hipster” label, blogs, their upcoming Love Supreme album (y’all aren’t ready), and all sorts of goodness. You also get some cool live performance shots.
I’ll be posting up an interview I did with U-N-I pretty soon, but first the snow and ice needs to get off the roads so I can go get the audio from the station hahah. Hold tight!
Ok, so we all already knew that Jay-Z and Nas have been two of Barack’s biggest supporters in hip-hop, but it’s great to see the Obama campaign reach out to them and film these official endorsement videos to help win swing states where the artists performed. Every state has their own page on Barack’s website, so go track down yours and get involved.
Washington people: as we talked about on the last Sound Session, your page is located at Washington.BarackObama.com. Volunteer. All the cool people are doing it (…aka…me). You know, if the campaign wants me to film one of these celebrity endorsements, they should just holler @ a Hyphey hahaha…
This seems like an older clip, but I’ve never seen it before and Chad just posted it up on his blog. Either way, it’s dope. Chad and Kenna visit their old high school and explain what it was like growing up in Virgina Beach.
