Avatar Young Blaze ft. Isabella du Graf – Wishing On A Dream (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on December 4th, 2010 by Hyphen

The homey Blaze teamed up with the other homey, Jon Augustavo, to whip up a video for “Wishing On A Dream” featuring Isabella du Graf.  While this one wasn’t shot up here in Seattle like the previous video I posted, or most of Jon Jon’s work, it looks great and it’s another example of the talent here in the 6.

Parker ft. BJ The Chicago Kid – Still Parker Brothaz (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on December 4th, 2010 by Hyphen

Parker (formerly known as Eclipse), aka one half of the Parker Brothaz, might just have one of my favorite records from the NW here in 2010.  We played this joint on SNSS a while back and Tha Bizness have just released some visuals for it this past week.  The beauty of this track is the simplicity: dope beat, good hook, and heartfelt rhymes.  Shout to Stretch, hope he gets out soon.  And shout to my city too, we’re filthy.

Mr. Hudson ft. Kanye West – Anyone But Him (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on November 28th, 2010 by Hyphen

Never was a huge fan of this song, but as always, ‘Ye kills his verse.  The visuals look pretty good, aided mostly by the location and the fine choice for a leading lady (despite the ridiculous wardrobe(s)).  Overall, the Mr. Hudson album was a solid project and the final phase of Kanye’s 808’s & Heartbreak era.

MED ft. Aloe Blacc – Where I’m From (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on November 20th, 2010 by Hyphen

Plain and simple, Aloe Blacc has murdered everything he’s touched this year.  He might be my artist of the year for 2010…well, if Yeezy didn’t release another 5 mic’er, but in any event, Aloe is up there.  This time he lends a helping hand to the artist formerly known as Medaphor for “Where I’m From.”

Remember where you heard this record first?  *Cough* Cornerstone Mixtape #115 *Cough*

Shout to the homies Buff & Rhett, two of the illest and nicest dudes in the industry.  Their collaborative self titled project is finally dropping on December 7th and it’ll be well worth the wait!

Parker – Sky Music (video)

Posted in Artists, Comedy, Music Videos on November 20th, 2010 by Hyphen

It’s great to see the homey Clipse doing big things with the whole Bizness/Kuddie Fresh crew.  I wish Stretch could be out there enjoying their success too, but hopefully he’ll get out soon.  Keep up the great work fellas…making Seattle proud.

And not to put him on blast (ok maybe a little), but mainly because this reminds me of the good ol’ days, peep a classic SNSS moment:

Shane Eli – Grey Area (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on November 20th, 2010 by Hyphen

Woah.

It’s very rare that I get a submission from an artist that I’m not familiar with that I end up really liking.  Most of the time, if you’re dope, I’ve heard of you far before you’ve heard of me.  However, I must admit, I’ve been sleeping on Shane Eli.  The homey David sent over his newest directorial piece and not only is it a great video, but the song is ill too.  Sounds great, plus it tackles a real life issue that I know many folks work with every day.

I’ll be checking for Shane Eli in the future for sure.
