TiRon & Ayomari return with a video for their new record, “No Filter,” which we debuted on SNSS a few weeks ago. The Jason Madison directed video is another one of those clips that just makes you want to move to SoCal…
But if you happen to be in Seattle, fear not! TiRon & Ayomari (and Blu as well) will be rocking here on April 17th at Neumos. Be there.
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.
Sol is back with a video and track off his upcoming album, Yours Truly, set to drop on January 20th. On the same date, Sol will be performing at his release party at Neumos, alongside Shad. Don’t miss it!
Wale, Miguel, and Miguel’s hair release the official video for “Lotus Flower Bomb” off Ambition, which is doing real well on the charts so far. Congrats to Wale, MMG, and the Warner fam. Wale can rub folks in the industry the wrong way, but he’s been cool to me every time we’ve met and it’s always dope to see talented artists become commercially successful. Super dope actually.
Seattle folks: I’ll be giving out a pair of tickets to Wale’s upcoming show in Seattle on Sound Session tomorrow night. Plus, you’ll get to come meet the man himself at KUBE with us earlier in the day. Listen tomorrow to win!
Seattle: Dom Kennedy will be performing at Neumos on December 13th. Be there!
Mitch:Â New visuals from Casey Veggies and Chicago’s Rockie Fresh. This joint needs to be played at high volume. Be sure to catch Casey at Neumos July 20th with XV and Logics!
Not only do you get to see Philly Freezer and Jake tear it down, but you get an opening set from my favorite group in Seattle, The Physics, plus DJ’ing by the legendary Vitamin D all night. Gonna be a crazy show, be there at Neumo’s on Thursday!
The homey Casey linked up with the other homies Thurz & Y-O for an interview at their Neumos show the other day in Seattle. Homies everywhere!
Look out for the A Love Supreme documentary to drop soon, narrated by yours truly…
If you missed the Wale/Colin Munroe show at Neumos here in Seattle from the end of last month, never fear, Hugh from BlogsIsWatching has your back. He linked up with Jason Hakala, Same Bae, James Chong, and Cahn Solo to produce this excellent clip of Wale’s introduction and the first track, “Breakdown.” More clips will be coming soon…
Yes, she can.
I hit up the Lykke Li show in Seattle last night and it definitely lived up to my high expectations. If you’re unfamiliar with her, peep this post from a while back. As for the concert, let’s see…
Even if you’re a novice to the indie rock scene like I am, break out your schmedium t-shirt and go see her when she comes to your town (dates available here). Also be sure to check out her album, it’s dope. Her live show is even better.
