Do you know who I am?

Hello! It's sort of been a busy week, but I'm so ready to unwind. I'll be in relax mode tonight, kind of. My plans will include making and eating pizza, watching a movie, listening to music, and continue to work on our next magazine issue into the late night/early morning hours. YEP. That's it! So, before I get into all of that, here is what's been up with some of the camp.

BONNIE BLUE: Early this morning (at midnight), Bonnie Blue released her debut music video for a track from her forthcoming album All Things Considered. Heck yeah, visuals! For a little over a minute, the self-titled song and video finds Bonnie spitting a raw piece about who she is and the love she has to keep pushing forward, past any adversity that may come her way. The black-and-white visual breaks into color and the head-nodding, King Al-produced beat (cuts by Spok Beats) comes through, while Bonnie keeps kickin' knowledge of what she's about. Dope track! "Do you know who I am?" BONNIE BLUE! Cameos from Poetic Death and Rics Rumble, too. Watch here or in the mini player below.


GAVLYN: Before embarking on another European tour (January 30th through February 22nd), Gavlyn will be doing a show in Los Angeles tomorrow (Saturday, Januar 25th) at the Jon Lovitz Comedy Club. It will be a hip hop vs rock show, with live performances from Gavlyn, Planet Asia, Killah Priest, All Else Fails, Rebellion Warfare, and others. This is an all ages event, and the price is $20 pre-sale or $25 at the door. Check out the the flyer for more information.

Another interview surfaced--and I'm sure more will soon come flowing in considering the release of her newest album (get it from several online retailers, if you haven't!). Gav met with the people of DaftStar to perform her song "Modest Confidence" and get interviewed. She talks about Organized Threat, her drive as an emcee, inspirations, performing, releasing Modest Confidence, and much more. Check out the video below, or watch it directly on Youtube.

Last but not least, Feggy Min designed another art piece for Gavlyn, where her head is on Minnie Mouse's body, with a mouse-ear beanie that says, "Being Cute And Shit". All pink everything. You may see it on a shirt some day, too.


JMEGA: Brand new song posted up on Youtube by JMega, called "Written In Steel". Produced by Aquarius Minded, the dusty drum beat finds the emcee spitting heavy lyrics while loading his gun, preparing for war, and getting ready to fight for his own . Listen here.

SOULCAT E-PHIFE: ... and she's back on the scene! Soulcat dropped a free 7-track mixtape yesterday, called My Fav Beatz. It is a collection of tracks from a limited edition tape called Street Soul Tape 1, which can be purchased from her at shows, or right here for €5 (or $6.84 USD). The My Fav Beatz mixtape finds her rapping roughly over random beats by Dilla, Nick Wiz, 9th Wonder, and DJ Slow. Stream and download for free at the pay-what-you-want price. She also mentioned that she'll be performing alongside MC Melodee on February 21st, so stay tuned to her page for more information as the date comes closer.

FEGGY MIN: I don't know about you, but I am always curious to what an artist's work space and surroundings look like. Feggy has recently posted a couple of photos to show people her desk area and one wall in the basement of her house. Of course there are loads of art prints and Feggy Min clothing laying around, but you'll also find books, albums, an array of drawing utensils, paint, and cutesy things near by. See here and here. Also, if you've been keeping up with her Facebook page, you've been seeing new art designs and new apparel designs with Russian lettering (see here).

SOMETHING EXTRA: You remember the music video for "For The Moment," right?! You better! Anyway, I don't know if this has always been available to download, but I just saw that you can grab that dope posse track for FREE. Produced by Figub Brazlevic, it features Poetic Death, Gavlyn, Yarah Bravo, and SoulCat E-Phife. Download at Soundcloud!

Have a good weekend!
Live well, and be nice to each other.
Much love,
