Never dumb it down

PAPA J: Tonight, Papa J had a show at The Roxy Theatre in Denver, and Poe was in the building to support. Were you? If you were there and if you took pictures of the performance, make sure you post them up and tag Papa J! Also, yesterday he dropped a brand new music video. From his 55 EP, watch the video for the outro track "Emergency 55," where you'll find him spitting razor-sharp, raw raps about staying true, loyalty, and not dumbing down his lyrics for anyone. Cameos by Poe and Joogy Jugg. If you still haven't downloaded the EP, GO DO THAT NOW. Watch the video in the mini player below, or click this link to watch it in HD.


RICS RUMBLE: There is a massive two-day festival this weekend called 626FEST (buy your tickets here) that you should know about. Over 80 indepedent music artists--veterans and local talent--will bless the stages over the course of Saturday and Sunday. And, guess what? You'll find Rics Rumble performing on Sunday (June 29th), so make sure you hit up that event! Get more information on this Facebook event page.

VIDA KILLZ: If you didn't know this before, earlier this year Vida Killz created the Absit Omen collective, which is aimed at inspiring others and cultivating community through art. With that, she is currently working on a book based around experiences of being a human (announcement here). If you have any interest in this book and receiving updates, go ahead and sign up on her mailing list. Regarding the project, she said, "My idea for this book is to share experiences and wisdom of being a human being. If you are interested in this, please take a moment to sign up for the mailing list below. (I know, more emails :p). I will be sending out the first email regarding this project in the next few weeks. Also, if you know anyone who might be interested in this, feel free to share this with them. Lastly, there are only 10 slots left for this first book. Sign up now."

DEVOUR: Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeey! Would you look at that... Devour is here in my hot state of Arizona this weekend! I didn't know that until just now, so if any of you are AZ residents, make sure you hit up this meet & greet pop-up shop. On SATURDAY, he will be in Tempe (1948 E. University Dr., Tempe, AZ 85281) from 2pm-6pm (flyer). It's a free event, and all ages, so if you have nothing else going on... go say what's up!

GAVLYN: If you don't follow Gavlyn on Twitter, you should probably go do that right here. She updates there a lot more frequently than anywhere else. For example, she recently posted a behind-the-scenes picture from a shoot she did, saying "Photo shoots are funs". Her hair is two-toned now (black/dark brown with chunks of orange-blonde), too!

YARAH BRAVO: Yarah recently did a photoshoot with Gutta Soles, where she posed with a bunch of their shoes (have a look). While you wait for the customized Yarah Bravo rolling papers, stickers, and even canvases, go ahead and pick up the Love Is The Movement album on vinyl or CD from HHV.DE (or straight from Bandcamp)! And, although it's over 3 weeks away, she announced a show on July 19th at Club GRETCHEN in Berlin, where she will be on the 90s Hip Hop Floor (Check the event).

Good night!
XOXO, Tiffology

[WWU]

HELLO OGT FANS AND FANATICS, FRIENDS AND FOES !

 Hello freaks and geeks and welcome once again to this week's Wednesday update of all things #ORGANIZEDTHREAT. As I type these words, Sir VONPOEVII is on his way to lovely Colorado to meet with the one and only PAPA J RUIZ ! The connections they are able to form with others individually and as artists is part of what makes their motion strong like the ocean; they work in unison like currents pushing each other along. Its quite amazing what one can accomplish just by bonding and sharing one's life with like minded individuals. Creating a network of minds, of people whom you're proud to stand beside and lean on, is one of the most valuable assets available to spry young folk like us. We may be considered 'Entry level' or whatever the fuck they call it, and our voices may stand small against the Koch Brothers and the rest of the billionaire dictator super-powers of the world, but that doesn't matter. Because no matter what we have control over our opinion, and because of that we are responsible to let our voices ring out loud. Whats even louder than one proud voice? A million proud voices speaking together! So the most pragmatic way to postulate any kind of message that has any chance of motivating change is to mobilize with others speaking the same thing. Our society teaches us to be selfish, to harbor greed and envy that eventually turns into hatred, to disconnect ourselves from strangers, to misunderstand what doesn't fit in the mold. But fellow nymphs and nymphettes, I urge you to see what a veil of ignorance they are cultivating behind our backs! They have built a shitty bridge, and crossing over it alone becomes riskier as the years roll on. And that is why networking with like minded individuals in supremely important, because the more voices in unison the louder the message. The relationship between VONPOEVII and PAPA J RUIZ is a perfect paradigm to my little rant because those two understand the power in numbers. More should strive to understand these concepts. Enjoy the quotes below :)

It's a Sonny day

#BREAKINGNEWS: EmptySev will release a video for "Sonny". Sev tweets "Just wrapped up this #SONNY shoot. Should be up by tomorrow. S/o to @VonPoeVII as always & @DeLaaaSoul for letting me swing a sword at her". That was tweeted yesterday so that means it should be up today! Be on the lookout for it.

"We just tryna see heaven without being gone" - EmptySev. Song: Sonny. Album: SEVENEMPTY.

Is it possible to experience heaven while alive on Earth? Maybe we are experiencing heaven right now. Maybe we are experiencing hell right now. Either way, how would we know that this is how heaven is supposed to feel or how hell is supposed to feel? It is also likely that heaven and hell don't even exist. Seeing heaven is one of EmptySev's goals (literally or metaphorically) and it may be a goal he will never achieve and even if he does will he be able to notice it?

---

I didn't mention in my previous two OGT Weekly's but, I will mention it now. I have applied psychological criticism to another Von Poe VII track "THE VILLAIN". Here is an excerpt from the criticism:

"Von Poe’s psyche goes from rational to violent in a matter of two lines. Lines 37 to 38 read “And barking back at dogs / Before I’m ripping out their internal organs”. When he writes that he is “barking back at dogs” that is his ego working. Verbally assaulting a foe is much more rational that physically attacking them. The ego is able to prolong this physical attack even though Poe expresses his desire to do so only one line later. The ego can no longer hold back the id in these two lines".

You can read it from beginning to end by clicking here.

---

This is FiascoTheGod and I shall supply you with the rest of the Organized Threat news.

Devour has created a Youtube channel that he will utilize to upload shows, meet and greets, short films, and more. Here is his first official upload which features his 2nd stop on the #DevourUpTour2k14 as he performs and meets his fans. He also just recently released a visual for "Ain't a Fool" so be sure to check that out, too.

We all have daydreams and well have nightmares. Some occur more than others. We will have to wait a bit longer to learn about the daydreams and nightmares of Vida Killz. In a Facebook status she uploads a trailer that officially announces that Daydreams And Nightmares will be released in Fall of 2014. Click here to watch the video.

This past Friday some of the OGT members were able to kick it at DJ Starchild's place! EmptySev and Von Poe VII were there so I am assuming we can expect some guest appearances in EmptySev's "Sonny" visual, from those in the IG picture posted by Poe. Click here to view the post. Von Poe VII directs the majority of the OGT videos and they both announced that EmptySev will be dropping a video today so I would like to think that I am justified in believing that we can see those featured in the pic in the video as well.

There you have it! That is the latest Organized Threat news! Before you continue with your day, read over the blog one more time to fully absorb what to expect in the coming hours and months. EmptySev should be dropping a new visual tonight so make sure to spread it when it drops! Papa J. Ruiz has a message to anyone currently supporting the Threat. "Anyone who jumps ship cause we not blowing up fast enough in they eyes can eat a Dick". You can now consider me, FiascoTheGod your savior.

HELLO OGT FANS AND FANATICS, FRIENDS AND FOES !

 Welcome once again to the Weekly Wednesday Update of all things #ORGANIZEDTHREAT ! This past weekend I had the privilege of assisting VONPOEVII with the production of his latest visual component. Its always an interesting experience filming with sir POE and 'Ready to Die' was of no exception. I'm a sucker for the smell of books - small books, large books, old books - you name it! So the garage library-laundry room combo was right up my alley, so to speak. Even more exciting, we had an audience of ghostly peacock birds cheering us on while filming the outdoor scenes. Ghostly because they only spoke and refused to come out and play. Ghostly because they kept reminding us they were there in an invisible way. Though it was a refreshing sound that traveled with the wind up the sides of the canyon echoing as it rolled along. I'm not sure how many of you would agree, but the best word for this shoot seems to be 'lovely'. Lovely for me because of the memories i made while shooting it, and lovely for you because WHO DOESN'T like to see VONPOEVII shirtless? Filmed entirely in the #SFV ! If you haven't gotten a chance yet, check out the poetry that is 'Ready To Die' posted below. Follow the little birdy for VONPOEVII updates n dirty jokes.

Unexpected news, A Von Poe VII visual, New THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A. beat, and more!

#BREAKINGNEWS: Vida Killz confirms that there will be another DEATHKILLZ album! DEATHKILLZ is a collaborative effort between Von Poe VII and Vida Killz. If you would be so kind to me and appreciate the hard work I put in to insert the following link, click here to view the official tweet.

This is FiascoTheGod and I will continue to present to you the latest Organized Threat news.

Von Poe VII makes a statement as the leader of Organized Threat in his new visual "Ready To Die" and it is produced by OGT producer Faces. In this visual Poe performs his blunt track which is his expression of "frustration that comes with being a leader in a group of starving artists, and how difficult it can be trying to keep everyone's mind focused on on the overall goal and not just themselves" (Quoted from his YouTube description). The selfishness has to cease to exist. There is a contrast though in both the lyrics and visual. Even though Von Poe VII states that the track is focused on his frustrations as a leader, there is a brief mention by the poet that shows in the end he still has hope. Poe says "I'm tryna put my niggas on my nigga / I'm tryna turn us into millionaires / And I'm just ridin' to the beat my nigga / Cause all this talent really ain't fair / I'm flexin'". Not only are those words a sign that Poe knows it will work out in the end but, he is still smiling and enjoying himself in the video! The easy listening and calm beat produced by Faces may have influenced those lines as well! There's no way he could be completely fed up!

College graduate THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A. has birthed and released a new beat entitled "Casanova". The first thought that surfaced in my head was the game Castlevania which I actually have never played. Of course that thought has to do with the title and not what sound is behind the title. THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A. keeps on supplying the feel good tunes! Positive vibes! Will a dark side ever surface? This is where you press play...
Oh and by the way...you haven't responded to my text. :/

Devour looks to close out June in notable fashion. First, Devour plans on releasing a new visual along with director Chad A. Marshall (Von Poe VII) on Wednesday. It is unknown of which track it actually is but, you can view the official tweet by clicking here. For proof that is is directed by Chad A. Marshall please allow your index or middle finger to click here. Devour is also having a Meet & Greet and Pop - Up Shop on June 28 in Tempe, Arizona. Click here for full details.

If you are new to the threat or simply did not realize of the existence of these quality projects, I am here to SAVE you!

Yarah Bravo's Love Is The Movement
JMega The God's (True Masterz) True Masterz Radio
EmptySev's SEVEN EMPTY
Papa J. Ruiz's 55

There you go! I have just given you the latest news about Organized Threat! Support the threat by sharing this blog to someone who has never heard of Organized Threat! And if you haven't listened to any of the projects listed above, you must do so now! I would be oh so offended if you didn't! You can now consider me, FiascoTheGod your savior.

SCARY MOVIE

HELLO OGT FANS AND FANATICS, FRIENDS AND FOES !

 Howdie doodie #ORGANIZEDTHREAT fans! I hope the evening has come to you in good blessing, as it has me. Its officially my fifth day home from the great NYC, and I can honestly say that I miss the shake of the subway beneath my feet and the sweet smell of the witching hour down by the river. They always said that you don't know what you're made of until you push pass your own boundaries, and by golly if my soul was once only an acre I assure you it is now a continent. After 72 long sleepless working hours, my mental was fully saturated and I had begun to learn things about myself that I wasn't even aware existed. While I sat back fully saturated, I watched VONPOEVII, PAPAJ RUIZ and JOOGY JUGG act if sleep was not a necessity, but simply a choice. Not a minute was the vibrancy absent, not a minute did the work ever turn rest. Salute to all the artists who push the grind high. Though I assure you...

 You ain't seen nothin' yet.
In the meantime, enjoy some snapshots from #NYC #OGT




FIASCO THE MUTHAFUCKIN

Papa J. Ruiz Takes Over And More About Organized Threat

I am FiascoTheGod and I am here to supply you with a lot of news in today's OGT Weekly.

Papa J. Ruiz Takeover 

 Without a doubt the buzz was around Papa J. Ruiz this weekend and he delivered in A+ fashion. Not only did he own this weekend but he birthed two things that will allow this weekend buzz to follow him for the rest of the year and beyond. First we are presented with a new mixtape by the Colorado MC and he calls it 55. It contains 5 tracks of Papa J. Ruiz spitting over production by Justice League, J. Cole, DJ Premier, The Hitmen, and Riddle. Before you head over to check out the EP, click here to view the trailer to prepare you for what you are about to experience. Just as the trailer does, you will hear inspirational and wise quotes from other hip hop figures and during your listening journey you will hear Papa J. Ruiz create his own. You can also show your support by purchasing an "iii" beanie which comes with an immediate download of 55. As of right now there is only one left so click here to pick up the last one!

"Kick me when I'm down / Tupac, homie still I rise" - Papa J. Ruiz, Song: Regardless Of The Outcome

So far "Regardless Of The Outcome" is my favorite track off the EP. This is due to Papa J. Ruiz's signature raw delivery and what he is spitting about in the song. It's the pure reality of "the struggle". It's real, it's alive, and he is able to deliver a quality song about it.

Papa J. Ruiz continues with good news with his announcement of his next upcoming album. It will be released late this year or early next year and it is entitled HR-1955. You can click here to view the official tweet.

Latest With Von Poe VII

 Von Poe VII has openly discussed with The Buttress on Twitter about their collaboration. This discussion begins with The Buttress tweeting Von Poe VII that she has sent him her verse. That tweet can be viewed here and that also leads to the rest of their conversation that shows Von Poe VII's reaction to what he has received.

Please continue to support Von Poe VII's IndieGoGo campaign by contributing to the funds for the production of hard copies of ONLY GODZ RELATE. There are tantalizing perks such as reserving an actual hard copy to receiving multiple merchandise and even a shout out on the album.

Rics Rumble's T-Shirt Collaboration

 You can now read a quote from one of your favorite Organized Threat MCs on a T-Shirt! Rics Rumble teamed up with dvious in order to blend together and manifest a T-Shirt. The quote by Rics Rumble reads "Weird's the new normal. If you're normal, you're weird". Click here to purchase the T-Shirt.

Upcoming Appearances 

 Gavlyn will be performing at The Bootleg Theater on May 31st. You can view the official flyer on Twitter to read more about it by clicking here.

On June 8th Devour will be doing a meet & greet pop-up shop in Covina, California from 2-5:30 pm. Click here to view the official flyer.

Support The Threat

 That's the Organized Threat news for you! I know it's a lot to handle. You were given new music, an update on news, new merchandise, and were made aware of upcoming appearances. Can you really ask for more? Well of course you can but that would be real greedy of you! Organized Threat continues to grind and show their passion for what they do. You can sense their passion in their music and on how they go about their business. You can show your support by spreading the word. Show a friend this blog and have them get the latest news. It's never to late to support the threat. You can now consider me, FiascoTheGod your savior.

Memento Mori

HELLO OGT FANS AND FANATICS, FRIENDS AND FOES !

Welcome minions, once again to this weekly Wednesday ORGANIZED THREAT update. I'm happy to be with you at this moment, in the many days of our lives, and to be able to relay such coverage on a group that emits such radiance from within a world that constantly attempts to snuff its own flame. There's hardly anything more positive and motivational than watching someone chase and fulfill their dreams, that is until you get in a room full of those someones. For those of you who are wondering how they do it, what F.O.R.M.U.L.A they follow, how they stay afloat in an ocean of diversity; I may have an answer for you. Memento Mori, a message that reminds all of us that one day we will have to die, a message engraved within our times' ticking clock. A reminder that we were given this one and only life and damnit we better make something of it. A reminder that every second counts, and that even if you tried you couldn't waste a minute. Because you humans, actions are your forte', the only difference between the successful and the unsuccessful is a man made state of mind. Though we are encapsulated by our own rigorous personal discovery concerning the matter, its always nice to be able to reference a sound paradigm like that of ORGANIZED THREAT. 

Memento Mori; Make it Count, whatever it may be.

WHO'S READY FOR ANOTHER VONPOEVII MUSIC VIDEO ?!
The general himself VONPOEVII just announced that the new 'The Reign of VII' music video will be dropping tonight at midnight! So, little nymphs and nymphettes, get ready to have ya britches blown off by another stunning visual provided to you by none other than VONPOEVII himself.

Paradox. Read The Latest Organized Threat News Composed By FiascoTheGod. Paradox.

This is FiascoTheGod and I am here to supply you with the latest Organized Threat news.

"They say I drink too much but they don't think enough so who's further?" - EmptySev. Song: "Believe You Me". Album: "SEVEN EMPTY"

Celebrate Life & Death In "Paradox"

 As promised, Von Poe VII has dropped a visual for "Paradox" which is beautifully produced by Rellim. Although "Paradox" can elicit the feelings of laid back, calm, and chill, through it's SOUND, the lyrics if listened to carefully over and over again you can sense at times a heartless and frustrated Von Poe VII. That in itself is indeed a paradox. Sound vs context of lyrics. The part of the hook when Von Poe VII spits "Searching for the fame got me lost inside the game" can also be seen as a paradox. Looking at the rap game today, some rappers who lack heart and creativity seem to be the ones being famous. Why is it difficult for Von Poe VII to reach fame when he is one of the MC's/poets who have heart and creativity? (Not implying that's all that it takes to become famous). The rap game is a paradox. Von Poe VII does not seem to stress this as he turns to celebrate life and death in his visual. Yes, there is another paradox. The poetic lyrics by Von Poe VII including the way they are delivered and the poetic sound birthed by Rellim, receive a very poetic visual. "Paradox" can be located on the "Von Poe VII" album.

Expect a video dropping on May 31st. Von Poe VII informs us of this in a very poetic tweet.

JG Writes And Produces His New Track "The Sacrifice"

 JG just dropped some serious heat! Check out his latest sound entitled "The Sacrifice". He justifies his egotistical approach with an impressive rhyme scheme and confident delivery. This is from his forthcoming project entitled "Stay Still".

THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A. Provides A Piece Of Tranquility

 THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A. has a new release entitled "Tranquil Sunday". He is very straight forward in this track as what you read in the the title is what you absorb through your listening session. This is probably the perfect song to listen to on a Sunday, the day after a hangover. :) And listening to this during church could probably be the worst decision of your life. Unless you're an atheist. Well, then why are you in church anyway?

Devour Show Coming Up

 On May 23rd Devour will be performing in North Hollywood, California. Organized Threat members DJ Starchild and Razor will also be a part of the show. Click here to view the flyer for more details.

Support OGT

 There is your latest Organized Threat news! Before you proceed with your next task please take another read at the blog to fully absorb everything that is going on! Also, do not keep Organized Threat your best kept secret! Spread the word! Start off by showing anyone this blog! After you're done with that you can consider me, FiascoTheGod your savior.

"Need to pay the rent cause when broke and bummy, the world look at you funny like god damn, Earth birthed another alien" - Papa J. Ruiz. Song: "CO STATE OF MIND". Album: "NO R3COLL3CTION"

Weekly Wednesday Organized Threat

HELLO OGT FANS AND FANATICS, FRIENDS AND FOES !

 Whats up? How ya'll doing? I'm having a wonderful night actually, just got off my very first night of a new serving job in the valley, and I tell you what; behind these words I come to you feeling successful and satisfied. While reviewing what the group has been up to lately, like usual, I came across a particular piece of text that for some odd reason caught my attention.
Not entirely sure where it came from originally, but from the mind of EMPTY SEV it was brought to you tonight. Positive energy activates constant elevation; peace. Sit on that one for a minute, repeat it in your head, hell even say it out loud if that floats ya boat. But doesn't it seem the more you think about it, the more it absolutely makes sense. A positive thought motivated me to pursue my love of philosophy regardless of anyone's uneducated misconception, a positive thought motivated me to do my absolute best with my school work because a 3.5 college GPA will really pay off, even if it doesn't seem like it yet, a positive thought motivated me to get this great new job so that I can supply my ridiculous yet comforting habits. A positive sense of self helps me get up every morning, and gives me the constant drive to succeed and never give up; to never put down the gloves, to never put down the pen, to never put down the instrument, to never let any take away my dignity. What I'm trying to say here is this message is absolutely correct; peace comes from positive energy; from within the self. We are all responsible for our own positive energy, and therefore responsible for our own inner peace. A message like this could save someone's life, so pass it on young ones. Pass. It. On.

 NOW ON TO THAT OGT NEWS AND UPDATES!

Documentary, Music, News, & More In Today's OGT Weekly

This is FiascoTheGod and I am alive to provide you with the latest Organized Threat news.

In last Monday's OGT Weekly I showed you guys a part of my paper that I wrote for a Literary Criticism class. It was on Poetic Death's track entitled Regret. I have received my paper back and I earned a B+. Here is another part of the paper.

--
“The baby becomes aware of its body only in bits and pieces [...] When the awareness of being separate comes, as it must if the individual is to move from nature to culture, the sense of unity with others and other objects is lost and, along with it, the sense of security that it provided. With the baby desiring a return to that earlier period of oneness  with the mother, its needs at this point turn into demands, specifically demands for  attention and love from another that will erase the separation that the baby knows; but such a reunion is not possible. One can never return” (Dobie 65-66).

Would you claim that the sense of yearning to hug your mother is an example of wanting to be back in that period of “oneness”? In the first verse of Regret, Poetic Death writes “And When My Mother Passes / Will I Ever Get To Hug Her” (19,21).  Pondering the thought of wanting to hug his mother is exemplary of what is defined by Dobie and Lacan as the mirror stage. Since Poetic Death knows that he can never return to that state of “oneness”, especially when she is not physically present on Earth, he hopes to do so spiritually in the afterlife. Could it be possible that if an afterlife does exist, that Poetic Death can actually go back to that state of “oneness”? Lacan does not touch on the afterlife so we are left to ponder that thought.
--

The first paragraph describes what the mirror stage is. In her book "Theory Into Practice: An Introduction to Literary Criticism" Ann B. Dobie assists in helping to describe what Lacan meant by the mirror stage. The second paragraph is the application of the mirror stage to Poetic Death's poem/track Regret.

Now we shall proceed to the news.

The Latest On Von Poe VII

Von Poe VII  has re-uploaded a 20 episode documentary on Youtube that he calls "L.I.F.E.". This documentary covers his life from 2011-2012. I have not watched it yet so I cannot yet comment on it. I should be able to watch it by my next OGT Weekly so I will be sure to provide my thoughts. Since I did not know about Organized Threat during those years, I am very pleased to be introduced to the earlier history of Von Poe VII and Organized Threat. It is of great interest of me to know as much about Organized Threat as possible. I am sure it is to you so click here to begin watching the documentary.

Informing us via Instagram, Von Poe VII tells us that he has finished designing the hard copies for "ONLY GODZ RELATE". Once he arrives at the halfway mark for the fundraiser he will begin to get them pressed. To donate to the fundraiser click here. Click here to view the Instagram photo.

Von Poe VII has been working with MC The Buttress and they have been creating a track together. A music video by the first week of June is also possible. To prove that I am no liar, click here for the official Facebook post by Von Poe VII.

Friday, May 2, 2014

Hey, it's May!

Let me just say... holy moly, it's May! I swear, it was just the beginning of 2014, and now we are almost halfway through the year. I say this all the time, and it's a common expression amongst adults, but the perception of time seems to go by much faster as you get older. I turned 28 years old this year, and I was recently reminded that my 10-year high school reunion is this year. Whoa, already? Crazy. There's a lot going on this month, too. We have May The Fourth this Sunday (yes, I'm a Star Wars fan), Mother's Day on the 11th, Memorial Day, and just a boatload of other things happening behind the scenes for me. I'm excited, though. Anyway, happy first Friday of the month to you all. Let's get into this.

POETIC DEATH: Since releasing ONLY GODZ RELATE album nearly 3 weeks ago, Poe gave his previous album a little bit of a villain facelift. He remastered the whole album, rearranged the tracklist, added some new songs, and even added some old songs that weren't previously there to spruce it up. So, while you are still bumping the fuck out of his latest album, go ahead and make your way over to the VONPOEVII album Bandcamp page to stream and download it all over again.

While the final installment in The Villainz Trilogy won't be releasing until 2016, Poe does promise to push out a lot of music videos from both projects out right now. That said, a brand new video will be dropping next Sunday, so look out for that!

GAVLYN: Your girl Gavlyn is officially on her France tour, and her first show kicked off tonight at the Transbordeur in Lyon. She will be making her way through France until May 18th, so if you're in any of the cities listed right here, make sure you are in attendence!

YARAH BRAVO: I am so thrilled that we were (finally) blessed with a new Yarah Bravo album. On April 30th, she released her 9-track Love Is The Movement album! A proper album review will be coming up soon, so I'll let you know when that time comes (probably next Friday). It is available in digital, CD, and vinyl formats, so click that mouse on her Bandcamp page to make your purchase. Also available on iTunes and HHV.


VIDA KILLZ: As Fiasco previously mentioned, Vida has been dropping some sneak previews from her forthcoming LP, Daydreams and Nightmares. You can stream "Lady Death Pt. IV", a snippet of "Remember", and the "Outro". Vida's latest update on the album: "Just got rid of 3 tracks from this album that aren't up to par. More writing soon. I intend for Daydreams and Nightmares to send you on a roller coaster that weaves you into a beautiful butterfly from whatever creature you normally are--each time you listen to it. Much love."

She is also doing something unique: She is trying to connect with her friends and fans alike by mail. Showing your love/appreciation through emails, comments, messages, and other digital means is cool and all, but why not bond with Vida through the lost art of writing a letter? What about sending post cards where you're from, with something special written on the back? Or perhaps sharing photos, or art, or whatever you want with her? Yes! With an open mail box, she says, "Send me letters, poems, books, ideas, beauty, things that inspire you, things that destroy you. Send me pictures, paintings, etc etc etc. I'll respond, swear. Let's build connectivity." Find her PO Box address HERE. She also shared the link to her actual Facebook profile, so if you're trying to be on that friend tip, you might as well shoot her a request.

DEVOUR: Today, Devour dropped a brand new music video for his song "Make Me Feel (Blown Off That Purp)," from his REDRUM album released last year. It's a song that was written for the deep love and true friendship between he and his lady. As expected, the visuals were directed by Chad. The video has been out for less than 24 hours, and it's already gained over 9,000 views. That's pretty dope! Check it out by clicking HERE, or click play on the mini player below.


FEGGY MIN: Feggy is doing another giveaway contest. You can enter by doing one or all three methods listed in this status. She basically asks you to like and follow her on Facebook, Twitter, and/or Tumblr, and then share/reblog the contest on whichever platform you choose. The package up for grabs includes: 1 shirt, 1 iPhone cover, 1 mouse pad, 1 backpack, 1 puzzle, and a bunch of random goodies. Remember, the specific details on participating here, and do it before May 5th (because that's when it ends). Also, check out this beautiful photo of a more "feminine" Feggy, donned in white with flowers in her hair. Lovely, as always.

That's all, folks!
Have a blessed weekend!
XOXO, Tiffology

A Second Chance

HELLO OGT FANS AND FANATICS, FRIENDS AND FOES !

 How the fuck do you do little ones, on this fabulous wicked Wednesday? I'll have to admit, after reading the introduction to FIASCO THE GOD'S weekly Monday update, a certain question has been hanging around the gallows of my mind lately. He spoke in reference to a line from VONPOEVII'S song titled City After Hours -"My circle getting smaller as my life goes on". To continue on with the topic of our circles shrinking and the come and go of weary souls who cross our paths, I'd like to talk about second chances. As we grown and come to know, its impossible to trek without change. If I came face to face with my 18-year-old self on a street corner today I'd stare into her eyes as if she were a stranger, hell I probably wouldn't even be her friend. My point being that I have changed, regardless if I wanted to or not, because every person, situation and dream I've encountered and everything I've come to experience has helped to mold me as if I was the clay stretching and folding in the hands of the sculptor. And like many others, this unstoppable change came with a price as my circle became practically non-existent. It seemed like the more I knew, the lonelier I became. It also seemed like the more I created myself as an individual and began to build my own circle, the faster the illusory circle i'd once grown so comfortable with began to fall and perish. I'd like to think that people come and go for a reason, some purpose that I perhaps am unaware of. I'd like to think that all I've lost and gained has made me the proud woman I am today. But who is to know. 'Circles' in a sense are self pruning rose bushes, severing the putrid ends while making room for new blooms. But who's to say that a severed rose can't be replanted? Do people deserve second chances? Is life too short to give up on people? Or is life just too short to put up with the bullshit? Does it depend on the strength of the bond, family? If there a objective answer? #FOODFORTHOUGHT

 NOW, ONTO THE #OGT WEDNESDAY WEEKLY UPDATE !!!
