All This Pressure Leads to Diamonds

Hello OGT Fans and Fanatics, Friends and Foes!

This morning we were blessed with some fresh sound motivated by a collaborative effort between PAPAJ RUIZ and BONNIE BLUE. Produced by JOOGY JUG, 'Good Luck' features a critical and ferocious Bonnie, critical of the reality we live in and even more critical of thoughts postulated by this reality. Frustration with this reality and figuring out how to turn the gears properly is something all of us deal with, whether it be figuring out what the hell love means or escaping the vicious cycle of capitalistic oppression. In the words of BONNNIE "Aren't we all just some walking contradictions/looking outward for conviction" :40. We come face to face with contradictions on a daily basis, whether it be temptation to contradict our own values or the observance of another contradicting theirs. The higher education system in and of itself is a prime example of perpetual contradiction; no one should have to pay for the transferring of knowledge. Regardless of the source of the contradiction, the frustrations produced weigh antagonistically on the parched soul. BONNIE confidently illustrates the voice influenced by that weight "Dead inside my soul is sleepin/see me screamin for a reason" :57 While BONNIE speaks of contradictions, we find PAPAJ RUIZ speaking of frauds but in the most efficient way. "You operate as a man walking with God/homie you just a frog/couldn't bear your foot inside my shoes/one up/now you down to lose" 2:26 We are surrounded by those who feel they don't belong because they insist on trying to be something they're not; those who attempt to swim with wings so to speak. Truth may be increasingly hard to find, but that quest gets easier with genuinity. Oh wait, what? You have no idea what I'm talking about? Well shit, fellas and fellettes, listen to this beautiful shit below and interpret as you will.
Last night I also had the pleasure of attending The BSIDE SHOW featuring GAV, the general himself VON POE VII, and other special guests. My favorite part of last nights show was definitely when GAV told the audience that Mickey Mouse could get the P. I mean, who wouldn't let Mickey Mouse get at least a little in? I guess if you've ever seen that South Park episode you might think twice, but cartoons deserve love too shiiit. Anyways, if you haven't peeped this shit yet, grab yourself a draft beer, foreign or domestic [Stone IPA is my new favorite] and enjoy the show!
Another fantastic fucking update! VON POE VII has finally announced that Castlevania Pt. 2 will be a part of his up and coming project ONLY GOZ RELATE, which was spoon fed to you nymphs and nymphettes earlier this week by FiascoTheGod. Peep the little tweet below for intricate details.
Lastly, but surely not leastly, DEVOUR recently announced another meet and greet along with a free poster and t shirt give away! I hear the first 25 people get some free shit with any purchase. Follow the little link below and support ya OGT fam!
UNTIL NEXT TIME YOU FREAKS
