Sol – People (video)

Posted in Artists, Music Videos on March 3rd, 2015 by Hyphen

“there’s so much more in this world than just blowin’ up in rap”

Sol’s been one of the standout artists in the Pacific Northwest for years and has steadily built a growing fanbase all over the world, but many have been wondering where he’s been recently.  Well, wait no more.  Zilla is back with a double single release, “People / Pages,” and here are the excellent visuals for the former.  Cop the tracks right here!

Sound Session #430 (9-8-13)

Posted in Episodes, Sound Session on September 16th, 2013 by Hyphen

SNSS

Playing catch up on the SNSS archives tonight, so here’s the second episode that I didn’t have the chance to put up before.  On this one, we played new music from folks like Guilty Simpson, The Clipse, Chance The Rapper, Freddie Gibbs, Madlib, Bambu, BANKS, Meek Mill, Tanya Morgan, Demrick, Polyester, John Legend, Kyle, Majid Jordan and more.

Plus, we were joined in studio by one of our good friends, and an artist that many are calling the next to breakthrough from Seattle (following in Macklemore’s footsteps), Sol.  While there are similarities between Sol and Mack, folks categorizing them in the same field are being pretty lazy.  It’s actually been really dope to watch Sol’s growth over the years, aided greatly by his recent 11 month trip around the globe.  We chatted with him before he left, during the trip (calling in from Haiti), and since he’s returned, and I’ve been more and more impressed with him as a person and artist each time.

On this episode, we were joined by one of producers, 1/3rd of The Zillas, Nima Skeemz, and we talked to the pair all about Sol’s new Eyes Open EP, which dropped last Tuesday.  Be sure to check out the project and support if you’re feeling the music.  You won’t be disappointed.

Enjoy the show!
