Follow The Leaders, Become A Leader

How's it going everyone? This is Fiasco and my brain is typing these letters to form words that result in sentences that make sense and some sentences that don't make sense. I was born with five but I can use a few more. And I am just experiencing this through my eyes. It's marvelous. All you need is one read to get the latest on OGT, so here we go!

Papa J. Ruiz visited California recently. That's probably because Von Poe VII resides there. What happened as a result of this visit has excellerated the careers of each individual artist and Organized Threat as a movement.

Papa J. Ruiz and Von Poe VII Interview:
The three videos below contain a three part interview between Papa J. Ruiz and Von Poe VII and the fans that submitted questions. If you watch one part per day, you'll be able to complete the interiew in three days. Thank you to my first grade teacher that taught me math. If you can watch all three parts right now that'll help you out even more because you will end this OGT Weekly as one of the listeners with the cutting edge information.



After watching the interview I have this opinion in my mind that no matter who they interview with after this, the best interviews are going to be with these two alone in a room with some food answering questions from the fans. It's going to be great to see other interviews from other outlets but I believe the best ones are going to be the ones Poe and J. do themselves. Of course I don't have any real evidence to support that but hey, the moon wasn't built overnight.

Twelve Hours Later: 
The EP you didn't expect. The EP that Papa J. Ruiz and Von Poe VII were able to keep under wraps even after been asked a couple times by fans in the interiew. (It actually makes those parts in the interview much more funny because you know that they know that they were already working on an EP). Along with their visual for "5:55 PM" here is their collaborative project 5 Tracks and The Intro.

If there was ever an ideal time to be an Organized Threat fan, it is right now. Von Poe VII and Papa J. Ruiz have just delivered to you an outstanding EP that I am very enthusiastic to share with those around me. If they weren't OGT fans before, they will be now! The "5:55PM" visual (it's so good that I didn't even realize it was 7 minutes) definitley gets everyone intrigued to dive into the EP and the tracks that are found will keep them swimming around. Actually if you've been an OGT fan for a while you may recognize the footage in the visual. I believe that one of the most important messages that you will come across in 5 Tracks and The Intro is in "5:55PM" where Von Poe VII and Papa J. Ruiz make it clear that it is very important to be a person of your word. Have your word be your worth. Along with that message from that particular track, there is another message that I obtained from the entire EP. That is that although Von Poe VII and Papa J. Ruiz understand the significance of money and how it can help themselves and those around them, they are not willing to compromise who they are as an artist to obtain that currency in a quicker fashion. They believe that as long as they stay true who they are as a human and an artist, an abudance of money will eventually flow their way. The release of 5 Tracks and The Intro has definitely sped up that process. Remember, leave a comment below letting us know what you think of 5 Tracks and The Intro.

New TPOLAW Audio:

"Loyalty" is the newest release to be added to the tracklist of The Purity of Love and War. TPOLAW is an upcoming album that is being constructed by Von Poe VII. This version of "Loyalty" is labeled as a posse cut because of the additions of Papi Dollaz, Blacky Montana, Vic Virtuoso, and Papa J. Ruiz. "Loyalty" was originally released under the first TPOLAW  with just words from Poe, as a second track combination with "Dante's Inferno",

OGT x VII x iii Merch:

There is little time left to purchase merchandise from Organized Threat, Von Poe VII, and Papa J. Ruiz! Poe actually only needs two more orders to qualify his campaign to print the merchandise! If the release of 5 Tracks and The Intro doesn't get you excited to purchase merchandise, I don't know what will!

From the time I started following Von Poe VII and Papa J. Ruiz, I have come to the realization that not only are they superb music artists, but they deliver the message of a leader. Now it's not one specific message. There are plenty of them if you take the time to sift (the first time I am utilizing the word "sift". History as been made) through their Twitter pages and music. The messages and lessons are there. You just have to pay attention to where the leadership comes in. You also have to be open minded to change and willing to accept new information. I'm sorry to break the news to you but, you aren't the best human being you can be right now. You can be better but, that's entirely up to you. My advice to you is to find someone in life who is where you want to be and learn from them. And now I'm sure you're thinking well "Von Poe VII and Papa J. Ruiz aren't where I want to be right now". And you're probably right. They are two underground artists who are still finding their way BUT, they have the mindset of a leader. The following tweets are just two examples of why I just manifested this paragraph.
