Cue Bone Thugs-N-Harmony's "1st of tha Month." How are you all doing? Tiffology here, and I'm feeling great. I hope you had a fun and safe Halloween last night!
CRAYONBEATS: Before I dive into what's new with the camp, let me tell you about something cool. As I wrote about in my first post, I own the site CrayonBeats along with Tiffny (who alternates Fridays at OGTweekly with me). Anyway, on October 29th, we released our fourth magazine issue! It's dedicated to creative women in music, art, fashion, and life... you should check that out. So, yes, it features nothing but talented WOMEN... and let me make note that I featured GAVLYN and BONNIE BLUE in a 3-page article that I wrote called "Do The Ladies Run This Motha...?" I wrote about ladies in music that I feel people/our readers should be up on. You can get more information about who/what's featured in the issue over here, and pick it up in digital or print format.
BONNIE BLUE: Speaking of Bonnie Blue, she posted a new track on her Soundcloud yesterday, titled "They Say." Production and scratches by Spok Beats. Bonnie, MC Mega and Nat The Lioness each have a verse where they spit about their journey in music. On her Facebook, she spoke about how the track came together: "True story... Met an awesome couple last weekend who happen to both be super ill emcees/illustrators/innovators/all around badasses and good people. Invited them to hang out and we made a track together! Yesterday!" LISTEN + DOWNLOAD "They Say."
PAPA J: From his NO R3COLL3CTION album released in June, watch Papa J's new music video for the single "RiiiGHT MiiiND" produced by Joogy Jugg. Although it's not the whole song, it's still a fun little video with some humor in there, too--Poetic Death and Papa J try to get free gear, but get shut down. The video was filmed in the hip hop fashion shop RECON in Zurich, Switzerland, and features cameos from their friends Nizzy Royce, Recon / HunterKlan CEO Simon Graf, and Yanis Berdioui. WATCH HERE.
VIDA KILLZ & JG: It's always cool when members of Organized Threat combine their talents to form a new sound and group. For example, the Bushwall Junkies. Then, California's spoken word poet Vida Killz and New York rapper/producer JG joined forces to become Chateau Des Dieux. While they have worked together and have been harnessing their sound for several years, they released their official debut project yesterday. XXIV [24] finds Vida and JG spitting poetic lyrics over JG-produced beats. The production is crafted with soulful melodies, fragmented vocal samples, head-nodding drum loops, ethereal and distorted electronic vibes. Very relaxing music to listen to and take in. In terms of subject matter, it's soaked in strong imagery, they share honest and personal stories, and slip in thought-provoking lyrics. The 11-track album was well put together and you can hear the emotion and passion behind every song. I'm realy loving this project. STREAM + DOWNLOAD FOR FREE.
I think that's about it as far as new updates since Wednesday. Make sure you check all of those out. Hope you all have a great weekend! Until next time...
