Leadership and Success / A plethera of new visuals from the camp

My perspective has changed over the past few months of what success really means. I always associated success with being an expert in a certain field. Sometimes I associated it with having a lot of money and sometimes I associated it with living the way you want to live. My perspective is now that success is measured by how many people have been better off because you were alive. Organized Threat founder Von Poe VII, at a young age has already made a lot of lives better. Von Poe VII has given a lot of people the platform of Organized Threat to expand and grow their careers. On top of that, he has shot countless popular music videos for OTHER artists inside the camp and to my knowledge those come free of charge. Even him giving me the opportunity to be a personal blogger for Organized Threat has made my life better. If you are a current or former OGT member can you say that your life has been better because of  Poe? The following tweets from Von Poe VII are what inspired those thoughts..






This is FiascoTheGod and here is your latest OGT Weekly!

Von Poe VII


Von Poe VII appropriately takes part in session 7 of the BARS series from Organized Threat. Mr. 7 heads into a dimly lit setting with dirty white walls to showcase his lyrical skills. His verse actually comes from "Interlude: If iii" which can be found on Papa J. Ruiz's album HR-1955. Thanks to the meaning behind the BARS session, which is to showcase the lyrical talent of OGT, we are given an alternative way of experiencing of that Poe verse and in return can appreciate it more. I didn't know he was performing inside of a bathroom until some intruders walked in to wash their hands. Poe deciding to shoot it there shows his (or whom ever decided it was a good idea) ability to visualize.

As mentioned in the introduction Poe has been serving his people a lot. Whether he realizes it or not here, he has done it again with the BARS session. Instead of choosing a verse from one of HIS albums or creativing a new verse that again would focus on HIM, the verse he chose serves as another way to lead people to Papa J. Ruiz's album HR-1955. Now when someone asks Poe or an OGT fan "Where is that verse from?", we can now lead that person to Papa J.'s album.

Von Poe VII will be releasing a visual tomorrow. Although he's been on social media talking about his visual for "Titan" we shouldn't expect that to be the visual we see.According to a recent tweet from Poe we will be seeing a visual for "Dante's Inferno / Loyalty" before "Titan".



Papa J. Ruiz

From his HR 1955 album, Papa J. Ruiz has released his visual for "Rap Records" produced by Ruman and "LA Resident" produced by Joogy Music. The director is none other than Chad A. Marshall. It begins with a quote to think about by Eminem and leads to Papa J. Ruiz performing "Rap Records" with confident posture. We also witness SHORTSTOP give his contribution with his performance of "LA Resident".

The way the visual is broken up is definitely different then the way videos are usually done when there are two tracks in one visual. With my first time around I'm not sure how I feel about the setup. I believe if Organized Threat continues to play around with that approach it can only get better.

While indulging himself at the waterpark, Papa J. Ruiz had a supporter approach him. Click here to read the short version of the story via a tweet from Papa J. Ruiz.

According to a recent tweet, Papa J. Ruiz will be commencing music for 2016 "real soon" and promises to deliver nothing but classics.

Organized Threat

Vida Killz has new music waiting to be released, she just needs some time to take care of other things. In the meantime you can read her most recent blog entitled "Living With Her" and learn more about "Self-Care Crisis" cards she created. Both are related to PTSD. Through her personal experiences and research she has developed a system to help you obtain a fully optimum day, daily. If you ever encounter a moment throughout your day when you just can't shake a feeling that may be preventing you from being happy, Vida Killz' "Self-Care Crisis" cards will aid you. This is indeed an action of a successful person.

Yarah Bravo performed on the Music Apartment one June 3rd and under their Youtube channel they have released four Yarah Bravo performances. The Music Apartment is based out in Switzerland and they are a showcase series that puts focus on an artist in an intimate setting. I have placed "I Found Love" below. You can view "Be Your Own", "Spare Change", and "Carousel" by clicking each of the track titles. Even if you have heard these tracks before I recommend watching all of the visuals due to the great job done by Music Apartment and the fun you will have watching Yarah Bravo perform.



"life's a bitch." and "myst" with Vague003 are two of the newest releases from OGT producer Rellim. Both are free to download. They each differ in sound so depending on what mood you're in you'll probably prefer one over the other. Right now I'm liking "myst" a lot. With a comment below let us know which one you like.





Vic Virtuoso links up with Ben Franco (Non-OGT Member) for their visual "DRUGS". It definitely feels different to see a current OGT member in a visual not shot by Chad A. Marshall but, Vic Virtuoso holds it down and is without a doubt the star of the track. From all the content released as an Organized Threat member so far, his verses on "DRUGS" is not the typical.




There You Have It

 There is your latest OGT Weekly and now it's time for me to jump off a cliff and before I hit the ground, metamorph into a cat and stop in my tracks because look, there's cotton candy.
