Pusha T – Blow (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on May 21st, 2011 by Hyphen

Of all the “EEEGGGHHHHHCKK”-worthy verses on Pusha’s Fear Of God mixtape, this one might be the hardest.  The visuals do the right thing and keep it simple for this track that would make Tony Montana himself blush.

This is how I feel when it’s sunny in Seattle

SebastiAn – “Embody,” directed by the always excellent So Me.  There’s a dope DJ Premier remix too, but you’ll have to search the GoogleWebs to find the mp3…

The Airplane Boys – Born To Be (video)

Funny haircuts. Funny clothes. Funny Kanye-esque hand movements. Good music.

I might have to rock this on Sound Session tomorrow…

Lupe Fiasco ft. Skylar Grey – Words I Never Said (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on May 8th, 2011 by Hyphen

I just realized that I Tweeted and Facebooked this, but never posted it on the blog. You know a record is dope and a MC is incredible when a beat and hook that most hip-hop heads would generally pass on can be turned into a joint like this…

The Foreign Exchange – The Last Fall (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on May 5th, 2011 by Hyphen

Maaaaaaan, I knew that dude looked like he belonged on an episode of Law & Order.  You don’t quite expect a video from Phonte and Nicolay to come in the form of visuals that could have doubled for “Kim,” but Matt Koza and Bruce Pinchbeck did an excellent job with this one.

Elzhi – Halftime (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on May 5th, 2011 by Hyphen

I saw a few people commenting on the wait we’ve endured for Elzhi’s Elmatic and it was evident that they were a little frustrated because it’s not necessarily a completely original concept.  However, the few records that we’ve heard off it so far are RIDICULOUS so I’m really looking forward to it being released on May 10th.  The combination of Elzhi’s Nasir-influenced bars with live instrumentation is gonna be crazy…

Kentucky Athletics – Dynamite (one take video)

Posted in Comedy, Music Videos on May 5th, 2011 by Hyphen

I’ve seen a few of these one take videos, but this one might be the best yet. The University of Kentucky athletic teams joined forces for this cover of Taio Cruz’s “Dynamite” and it turned out both corny and dope at the same time. LOL @ Terrance Jones though, cot damn.

Shout to the kids who clearly messed up in the video too. “50 grand I get this on one take…Hov!”

Rizzle Kicks – Prophet (Better Watch It) (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on April 30th, 2011 by Hyphen

I’ve been putting off running errands and while checking Twitter, I saw Anjulie randomly post up this video. Both the song and the visuals are dope!

My UK obsession for the weekend continues…
