New School Noise is the brainchild of my guy DJ Same and Le Fresh Perspective, who hope that the event can shine light on some of the younger MC’s in the Seattle area.  The idea is pretty straightforward: fans will vote from a list of MC’s to decide who will perform at the showcase, which goes down August 19th at Neumos.  In the build up, they’ll be releasing a few of these teaser videos showing cyphers with some of the artists looking for votes.

Up above, you can see Dave B, Sean Brooks, Rebel, and J’Von, while down below, you’ve got Warm Gun, TayWill, Key Nyata, A-Rawlo, and Antbeezy.

Since Same has been helping out with Sound Session, we’re helping out with this program and co-signing it.  I think I may be hosting the event at Neumos too, but we’ll have more official news released on Le Fresh’s site, Neumos’ site, and TAOD as we get closer.

Big shout to everyone I ran into down in Los Angeles this past week, especially Nick and the whole team at Hard Knock TV.  I had a blast playing in their basketball tournament and celebrating their 7 year anniversary and 50 million YouTube views.  Here’s to many, many more!

Check out new music on this week’s SNSS from artists like Kanye, Pac Div, Eighty4 Fly, Ray Dalton, Wale, Khaleel, ADaD, Little Dragon, Lupe Fiasco, O.C., Apollo Brown, and more.  Enjoy!

Big shout to all the artists, DJ’s, managers, and label reps we caught up with at KUBE’s Summer Jam over the weekend.  Kid Ink, E-40, Tyga, Big Sean, B.o.B, Kendrick Lamar, Wiz Khalifa, and Rick Ross all performed in front of 18k fans at the Gorge.  Great show all around!  Check the recap here.

In other news, this archive for SNSS episode #365 means you can now listen to a show a day for an entire year without repeating a single one.  A full year of SNSS!  What else could you ask for?

Well, I suppose could ask for Maybach Music Group’s Stalley to drop by our show this week to talk about his latest mixtape, MMG’s Self Made, Vol. 2 compilation, and his upcoming album (video of the interview coming soon).  You could also ask for one of Seattle’s dopest MC’s (and possibly the next to follow in Macklemore’s footsteps on the national scene), Sol, to come through as well and talk about his amazing globetrotting plans for the next year and his “farewell” show this Saturday at the Showbox Market (with The Physics and XV).  And in case you wanted to be greedy, you could also ask that Brothers From Another drop by the studio to talk about their new Taco Tuesday EP and debut an instant Seattle summer time classic, “Molly Moon” with Prometheus Brown & Thig Natural.

And since I’m in a giving mood, here you go:

On this week’s SNSS, we brought back one half of Grammy Award winning, multi-platinum production group, Tha Bizness, and Henny brought Dow Jones with him this time to complete the crew.  A few days prior, J. Moore and I had the pleasure of appearing on their panel about “How The Music Industry Really Works In 2012” alongside Jake One, Macklemore, BBoy (Two In The Shirts clothing), Sermon’s Domain, Miss Casey Carter, Eddie Francis, and the Sacramento Kings’ starting point guard, Isaiah Thomas.  We had a great discussion and I can’t wait until Henny & Dow do it again next year, even bigger.  Peep Sermon’s recap here.  Much respect to everyone involved!

We were also joined in studio by one of our favorite producers, Marcus D, who  just released his new Melancholy Hopeful album with appearances by Substantial, One Be Lo, Luck One, Choklate, Cise Star, Funky DL, and more.  Cop it here!
