The Cafeteria Line drops a fresh video for one of my favorite songs of the year, TiRon & Ayomari’s “All My Love.” Yummy Bingham though. That girl at the end though!
Absolutely love this cover of Joni Mitchell’s classic. The original is below if you’re unfamiliar…
It doesn’t look like Lupe had anything to do with the creation of this video for “Double Burger With Cheese,” but whoever spliced together all these clips of Juice, Menace II Society, Boyz N The Hood, New Jersey Drive, Dead Presidents, Sugar Hill, New Jack City, Colors, and more did an excellent job. Would have liked to hear and see an Above The Rim reference, but other than that, flawless.
“I don’t go to clubs or listen to the radio (outside of SNSS) but when I do, I listen to Pac Div’s “Top Down.””
Freddie’s ode to the West Coast…the best coast…off Cold Day In Hell gets some nice visuals featuring producer/crooner Polyester and Dom Kennedy, who really epitomizes the current iteration of the west coast G sound. Definitely a smooth record that makes any of us stuck in the cold northwest region pine for that LA weather.
Aw man, this is that old Ferrari F50 that I’ve missed. Scoop Deville’s Bobby Womack flip is perfect and Fif’s flow is straight out of 2002. Those days when G-Unit were running the mixtape scene were some of my favorite times and this record sounds like it could have been on any one of those tapes. Great record.
I’m not buying the headphones though.
Happened to stumble across this video today as I was going through music (shout to 2DopeBoyz for posting it) and particularly liked some of the writing on here. Yuna’s voice is awesome too.
The homey Pinder links up with Jon Jon for another dope video, representing the town nicely, even though it was shot in NYC. Go far. Again, think global.
Speaking of Shad, here’s a great mini-documentary about a recent trip to his family’s homeland, Rwanda. As I always tell MC’s, and really any young people in general, think global, not local.
This clip of Shad talking to kids at a middle school in Surrey, BC exemplifies why he’s one of my favorite MC’s. It’s one thing to be an incredibly talented rapper and musician, but when combined with intelligence and the realization that you have an obligation to help make the world a better place, it takes it to the next level. I wish more MC’s were as forward thinking and intelligent as Shad, so they could speak to our youth as well. As it stands now, there are probably less than 20 MC’s around that I’d encourage they go speak to kids. And that’s horrifying.
