Dream Building, "Point 8", "American Ultra", and More!

My name is Fiasco, and this is the OGT Weekly. The purpose of the OGT Weekly is to provide you with the latest news coming from the Organzied Threat movement.

 A simple tweet by Papa J. Ruiz of a luxurious house, evoked the introduction for this edition of the OGT Weekly. While on your journey to achieving a goal, you may find it difficult to stay motivated. Ourselves and life get in the way of our goals but, it is also our responsibility to keep ourselves focused. Dream building is one of those ways.

Having trouble staying motivated? Going dream building can help and Papa J. Ruiz has seemed to have figured that out already.I have learned that dream building is an important key to accomplishing a long-term goal. It refocuses your mind on your goal. It will keep you motivated. Picture a house that you want. A car that you want. Your ideal body. Then surround yourself with images that are similar to what you picture. Walk around a nice neighborhood that has some of the nicest houses you have ever seen. Watch motivational videos on Youtube. By surrounding yourself with the things you want, you are programming yourself to stay on the path to success. Papa J. Ruiz tweeted out a picture of a nice big house. That's a good way to keep his mind focused on a goal. The next step for him, if he hasn't already would be to go to the nearest neighborhood that has a community of nice houses and take a look at them. That will surely keep him motivated. Having a nice house or a nice car may not be your goal but it can be something you get as a result of achieving your goal. The way Papa J. Ruiz sees himself obtaining the house of his dreams is by continuing to pursue his music career and be able to make a significant income from it. That's why it is important to go dream building.

Know what you want & work for it

Papa J. Ruiz continues to put the focus on his HR-1955 album and he does it by releasing a visual for "Point 8". "Point 8" is one of Papa J. Ruiz's great rapping performances and in this visual, his friends are there to witness it live. The good time that everyone is having in the video really does represent what is needed (fun and support) when we are all working hard. It really does relieve the stress that comes along with being in "grind mode". And for some reason, the multi-colored bright jacket that Papa J. Ruiz wears reminds me of the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air TV show. "Point 8" is directed by Chad A. Marshall and produced by Endure.

A Papa J. Ruiz fan shows his loyalty by inking on the "iii"'s in a tattoo. Click here to view the intense tattoo.

For the remainder of this OGT Weekly, address me as Fiasco Ultra.

Here is the visual for "American Ultra"! "American Ultra" evokes a euphoric feeling within me because it really does refresh my memory when I first heard Von Poe VII as Poetic Death. Poe acknowledges that himself within this track when he says, "They sayin that that boy VII is back up on his death shit". Ruman's production gets the assist in bringing that out. Now we have a visual for "American Ultra" and I am very ecstatic about that. Ruman said its's a movie and I agree. The visual is really that captivating and will be the cause of goosebumps around your body. "American Ultra" can be found on Von Poe VII's album The Purity of Love and War.

Von Poe VII announced juicy juicy news through Twitter. Poe lets it be known the features and producers he desires to have on his next project. Ruman, Endure, and 3Point (not-ogt) are known to bring out "The Villain" in Von Poe VII. I can't recall anything from Joogy that has done that in the past, so it is something to think about going forward. Will Joogy's responsibility in the project be to do that as well, or will he be responsible for tracks on the project that will "lighten up" the mood? As far as the features, it would be cliche for me to say, "Von Poe VII does not have a lot of experience collaborating with the desired features besides Papa J. Ruiz so it will be interesting to see how it plays out". The fact is that it doesn't matter if he hasn't done much work with the other features! And it will be more than "interesting"! It's mouthwatering to think about the possibile outcomes that can occur! And...I think I just argued with myself.

"The Space Between" (no not the bubble) by Von Poe VII is one of his most recent tracks to be released. Commencing with thought provoking questions, Von Poe VII proceeds with lyrics that put love over money. Von Poe VII's words in combination with production from UrBan Nerd that will fill your soul, makes for a profound track. Hold onto your chair because you might float away.


Vida Killz posted a quote on her website. The quote reads "Remember Why You Started". Remembering the "why" is also crucial on your path to achieving a goal. Your why will motivate you. Maybe it's to retire your parents, to have a better life for yourself, to help your family, etc. Remembering your "why" will keep you back on the right path if you ever fall off. Yes, you can have more than one why. Just be specific. Going dream building and having a constant reminder of your "why" will, without a doubt have you on your way to achieving your goal(s).

We have the privelege of seeing Razor go to work in the 8th BARS session. Razor entitles it "Frontlines" and we witness why he calls himself the lyrical prophet. "Frontlines" is initiated once Razor becomes an omnipotent weatherman. From there he doesn't slow down as we hear him rhyme with the word "providence" and also rhyme with the word "latency". That was very impressive to me. It is not known yet when or who will be in session 9.

"Pains of Love" is Joogy Music's new visual and it features Papa J. Ruiz. When listening to the production from Joogy Music, the words "triumph" and "confidence" arise in the mind. "Pains of Love" not only showcases his chemistry with Papa J. Ruiz, but it also portrays the smiling faces that Joogy Music gets to be around when he is not crafting music. I guess you can say the visual lets everyone get a peak of Joogy's life outide of music. "Pains" of Love" will be on Joogy Music's upcoming album.

Yarah Bravo inserts a new visual under her belt with her feature in "Long Lost Relative". You definitely want to gaze upon the video more than once. The visual in itself is very pleasing to watch and so your eyes may take over your ears the first time through. Multiple plays after that allow you to connect with the voice and words of Yarah Bravo.

Overseas OGT members unite! While at a block party in Magdeburg (no I don't know where that is. No I'm not using google maps, Yarah Bravo linked and Soulcat linked up and there a picture on Facebook to prove it! Just click here. 

"Long For You (Departure)" by Endure One

Endure One hits your heart with "Long For You (Departure)". The title of the track really does setup for what you experience in his production. The brief sound bites that are intricately placed adds depth to "Long For You (Departure)". I officially vote the cotton candy man for president. Physical sugar for everybody.

"Trials" by Endure One

If you have ever been on trial for a serious crime (murder, theft, parking in the bike lane) then this may bring back some memories. Here is "Trials" by Endure One. If you're laying down or sitting in a chair, I challenge you to be still while listening.

"Lost and Found" by H.V.

"Lost and Found" is a brand new sound from producer H.V. With 27 seconds to the track, it appears that whatever H.V. lost, he found rather quickly.

"We Don't Think About It" by Dylan Montayne (not ogt) featuring Papa J. Ruiz

Papa J. Ruiz was recently featured on a track from Dylan Montayne and it is entitled "We Don't Think About It". Papa J. Ruiz does a captivating job of describing some of his life experiencs and tying that into the title of the track "We Don't Think About It". Whatever fans Dylan Montayne has, withouth a doubt became new listeners of Papa J. Ruiz. Make sure to take advantage of the free download.

"When It Rains It Pours" by Koolz One and Endure One

Wow! What an intense track to end this OGT Weekly with! Here is "When It Rains It Pours", where the rain of emotions from Koolz One pour out over production from Endure One. There isn't room for an ounce of rain to drop for a hook in this one! "When It Rains It Pours" has Koolz One uniquely addressing the hard times he has faced and the production from Endure One becomes an enormous sponge and soaks it up.

There is your OGT Weekly! Make sure to take a second or third look over it to make sure you capture every detail. To further show support to Organized Threat, don't forget to share! Thank you for taking the time out to read and keeping up to date with Organized Threat!

T-H-R-E-A-T, man... /Method Man voice.

VON POE VII / POETIC DEATH:

Von Poe has released two new music videos since the last OGTWeekly post, and those would be "Dante's Inferno / Loyalty (Mobb Deep Tribute)" and "Titan". The first part of "Dante's Inferno / Loyalty (Mobb Deep Tribute)" pays homage to Mobb Deep's classic "Hell On Earth" song, where Poe raps over the same Havoc-produced beat, about enemies, being real and ready for war at any given moment. The last half of that video was produced by EMP, and the subject matter ties into that, with him venting about severing ties with disloyal snakes. Watch that RIGHT HERE in HD, or click the mini player below.


The second, and most recent, music video that he dropped was for "Titan". With a head-nodding, melancholy-sounding, boom bap beat by 3POINT (this one, to be precise!), Poe reflects his dreams, his strong work ethic, the importance of being true to yourself, and his desire to be an influential person in hip hop and life. "And I just wanna live // And I just be great // So regardless how my story ends // Just know that I was never fake // I never back away from promises that I made myself // It's hard to find direction when everybody got they hands out // But nobody's tryin' to help me". The video was filmed in an abandoned building, where the walls are covered with beautiful graffiti. Watch it RIGHT HERE, or watch in the mini player below. Both of the songs are from The Purity of Love and War, so if you have yet to grab that (FOR FREE), do it now. But if you're into paying for music, even when it's being offered for free from the artist themselves, or if you're an Apple head, you can get the SHORT VERSION / EP of the album over at iTunes. CLICK IT.


He announced that he'll be dropping one more down-paced video (after these other two above hit 5,000 views each), and then he will be hitting you with more upbeat tracks from The Purity of Love and War. "Then when Summer's over, we gonna wrap up the rest of them joints. Hope that's coo with yall. ‪#‎Villain‬," he said.

Have you all seen his fundraising perks? In efforts to raise enough money to print 10,000 posters and hardcopies, he's offering a few awesome perks for your hard-earned dough. For example, for the first 10 (TEN) people who throw down $500 or $1000 towards his fundraiser, you'll be getting a lifetime package of FREE access to any show of his, hardcopies of every new project, and new merch... for the rest of your life or his. There is also a "FORTY VILLAINZ PACKAGE". With 40 slots available, those who donate $250 to the campaign will receive FREE access to all of his shows in 2016.

"Why? Because I want to always remember and be reminded of where I started, and where I could have been without the help of yall. This "10,000 Hardcopies + Posters" idea is my craziest by far, but I'm not worried about it. I made it this far with yall, I know we can go a lot further together." (source)

VIDA KILLZ:

One of the many things that I like about Vida Killz, other than her music, is her ability to express herself and what's in her heart, especially in such open spaces on the internet. I don't know her personally, but I like the honesty, love, and light that comes from what she shares. Even if she's going through hard times (such as described here), she makes the effort to find the good in a bad situation, and ends up spreading something uplifting and positive. By doing this, she not only elevates herself from a dark place, but she also comforts others who might be feeling some kind of way, too. At least, it does for me, and I genuinely enjoy seeing her posts on sites like Facebook, Instagram, and Tumblr. You should follow her everywhere, really.

I want to let you all in on something personal. Some of you may already know, or might pick up on this through my music/...

Posted by Vida Killz on Monday, June 29, 2015

Also, she has a couple of forms that she'd like people to fill out, so that she can gather information for some projects that she's doing. There is an "Independent Artist Goals" form, and a personal questionnaire about Overcoming Depression. Feel free to fill either or both of those out if it applies to you.

"Many of you know me as an artist and audio engineer. Well, lately, I have felt like my routine of writing a song, compiling an album, recording a music video, performing at shows, (lather, rinse, repeat) has fulfilled its purpose for now, and I’ve been seeking the next phase of evolution. My music has always been a way for me to heal and to connect with others who resonate with my music, which in turn aids in their healing. Over the years of my music career, listeners of mine from all over the world have written me messages stating that finding my art has helped them heal in some way. When I haven’t felt like creating music, those messages and people have been the fire underneath me, so to speak.

I have been working on figuring out what it is that I “do”….and if you were to ask me what that is now, I would say:

You know how a lot of young adults battle depression and feeling stuck? Well, I teach them how to experience joy at any moment. :]

The next phase of what that looks like for me is developing a system to aid in the daily struggles of depression. Depression is something I have battled and overcome, and I want to understand more about what others face during their depression. To do so, I need research, attached(in my bio - if you are reading this on IG) you will find survey form I developed to aid me in this research.

I am requesting this of you beautiful, sexy, wondrous souls: Have you experienced depression, overcome depression, or know anyone who comes to mind that has? If so, I’d love if you’d take a few minutes to fill out this quick and simple form, or forward it along to someone you know.

*It is completely anonymous, btw*" (source)

Also, on the topic of depression and fluctuating moods, she took the time to create a Self-Care Crisis card. They're the size of a business card and are indended to be carried around for the times when you need it. Read here about how and why the idea for these handy cards came about, and learn how you can get one. Make sure you sign up for the mailing list, too.

RAZOR:

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeah, that's right! Razor will be the 8th person to step into the BARS sessions, so keep your eyes open for that one. It should be dropping sometime tonight.

Shout outs to my nigga @thisisrazor. Just linked up with dude to record his BARS session, had a real brief but dope conversation about the crew as a whole. You are appreciated my nigga, let's run it. Photo Cred: @lettersfrmcoral #VONPOEVII #VII #RAZOR #FAMILY #ORGANIZEDTHREAT

A photo posted by Chad A. Marshall (@vonpoevii) on Jun 29, 2015 at 7:04pm PDT

From Razor's forthcoming Oblivious to Nonsense album, he dropped a brand new song, called "It's My Life". Featuring Von Poe VII and Praze, the song rides on self-reliance, being a wolf amongst sheep, and possessing the strength to persevere through anything life throws your way. Soulful singing in the hook, too. Listen below.

RELLIM:

If you stay tuned to Rellim's Soundcloud, you'd know that he dropped a new track last week. Putting his own spin on Atu's "Vacant", he adds some futuristic drum work, rattling hi-hats, and silky synth lines. If you like the original, you'll most likely still enjoy Rellim's edit, because he stays within a similar lane. It's nearing the 6K stream mark already, too! Listen to the remix below, and download for free here.

JOOGY JUGG:

Joogy let me know that on July 18th, he'll be dropping the official cover art to a single from his album, featuring Papa J. Ruiz. He may also drop a music video on his birthday, on July 21st. Make sure you stay tuned to his Twitter page for those updates and more. And, keep his birthday in mind, so you can shower him with love. I also read on Twitter that he made Joogy Music official, by getting an EIN for the business. I know when I/we turned CrayonBeats into a small business, and when I got that EIN, I was happy and proud as fuck. I imagine he's feeling the same way--get it, man! PS: Joogy Music beanies, yayerrrrr!

Look out for @JoogyJugg pic.twitter.com/atrd8hSEhe

— $outh £@$+ $iiide (@PapaJRuiz) July 2, 2015

ENDUREONE:

On June 30th, EndureOne dropped a 10-track instrumental album, called Sundry & Aimless. Straying from any particular theme, this is a collection of tunes that he liked enough and thought should be heard. That said, you can expect easy-going boom bap beats with jazzy influences, with feelings that transition between sadness and delight. It's free to download, so go grab it from Bandcamp.

"Much unlike the arrangement, mood, and (I guess) style of each beat, the process I take when brainstorming a project is ordered and themed. However, attempting to piece together a coherent project that flows through with a theme is too difficult. I've done away with many beats (some of which were decent) just because they didn't 'fit' the tone I wanted. As a result, I have abandoned that approach completely. I wanted to put out a decent project, and therefore believed doing so required meticulous planning. Hence my failure at conducting an organized project, or even finishing one. So, this "album" (if we will call it that) is a product of waiting until I had enough pieces I was satisfied with to release as a project. But, there is no theme. Nothing ties them together, musically. Hence the title. "

------------------------------
Well, that's a wrap.
Hope you all had an enjoyable (and safe) weekend.
Be cool.
XOXO, Tiffology

VON POE VII / POETIC DEATH:

For one day, and one day only, Poe uploaded his very first album, titled The Atma Within, that he released 10 years ago. TEN YEARS AGO. FOR ONE DAY. On his birthday, April 13th. If you were like me and totally forgot about and/or were busy, then you/we missed out on that for good. But if you did get to hear it, what did you think of it? Inquiring minds want to know.

Alright, if you missed it, you're going to have to stop sobbing, because now you can watch his latest, JUST RELEASED music video. That's right--he's been filming for "The Villain II", in the Inland Empire area between the 17th and today, and just posted up the video minutes ago. Part two to the first song. The intro starts with a clip from Papa J.'s interview, where he talks about Poe being his favorite rapper in the game. Produced by Nez and Rio, and dropping his take on Asap Rocky's "Lord Pretty Flocko 2", Von Poe spits with a furious flow and holds his own. Like I said in this blog post, "My favorite part is the second verse, too, because he's spitting some from-the-heart, real shit, like representing for his town, demanding respecting, getting to where he is without hand-outs, and the shady friends that turned their backs on him after he's helped them in some way. The villain is poetically killin' 'em." YUP. Directed by Chad A. Marshall himself, so watch the music video below. If you haven't streamed and/or downloaded The Purity of Love and War, then get up on that right now. RIGHT NOW. He's also wrapping up the third volume in the Villain Trilogy, so look out for more information on that in due time.

Only working with a select few producers for the last piece of The Villain's Trilogy. No release date, but the album artwork is already finished.

PAPA J. RUIZ:

Guess what? Papa J. Ruiz will be opening up for Casey Veggies, on MAY 14TH, at the Gothic Theatre. So all of you Denver folks (and 16+ years of age) should go attend that one and show support to your boy. Von Poe VII will also be over there, showing his support.

Announcement 1: God is amazing, iii will be opening up for CASEY VEGGIES on MAY14TH at "The Gothic Theater" here in...

Posted by Papa J. Ruiz on Tuesday, April 14, 2015

On April 1st, Papa J Ruiz did his first official interview since the release of HR-1955 (GO GET THAT). You, his fans, asked the questions and he answered them. Some of the questions were goofy and flirtatious, asking if he whistles in public and wanting to marry him; and some were the serious, run-of-the-mill interview questions, regarding his childhood, his future plans, what inspired him to pick up the mic. It's an insightful interview, so watch it below. It's a little over 8-minutes in length.

YARAH BRAVO:

Yarah Bravo has some shows coming up that you should know about, if you're out there in Europe (check the Facebook post below). One of them includes performing at Haubentacer, on June 14th, in Berlin, alongside Mobb Deep, EPMD, and more!

VIDA KILLZ:

Vida recently announced that she's going back to the drawing board, to think about what she should release next. "I hope this next chapter of my expression and art is as meaningful to you as the last few chapters. I am eternally blessed to have all of you tuned into the vibration I choose to emit, she said.

She is still seeking more photos from people around the world, regarding holding up a paper sign with handwritten words of encouragement, a positive affirmation, or something you miss about someone you love who has passed away (only one sentence). She needs over 200 of these, and they will be used for a new music video that she's working on for "Untitled". So, check out this FACEBOOK EVENT for more information and participation.

KOOLZ ONE:

Koolz dropped a couple of new tracks from his forthcoming EP, titled Writers Block (it was originally scheduled to release the first week of April, but it got pushed back). Up to bat first is a song called "Organized Inc.", and it features Xican Brown. Out for vengeance in the trenches, the two jump on a hard-hitting, bass thumping beat, trading boastful verses. The third single is called "Threat Banga", and it features fellow OGT members Xican Brown and Sonny Sev. All three of them come out swinging with aggressive deliveries and lyrical threats to anyone who steps on their toes. Both songs are available for free download via Mediafire (here and here), so click those links below the players (or if you go directly to Soundcloud, click the "Download" button).

RELLIM:

Rellim recently announced that he's starting on a new EP, called Ashes. "Adieu" is the first single. It was co-produced by himself and Shy Martian. I assume this is going to be a rap project, based on this track. This isn't his first one either; check out Trailer Trash, if you want. Stream "Adieu" below. He also dropped a track with Mike Labyrinth, called "B3NZ", that he produced. It sounds like something you'd listen to driving at night, with the slow jazz horns guiding the mellow rhythm, and thumping drums, rapid hi-hats, and chopped vocal samples in the forefront. Stream it below, along with "Adieu". Free downloads on both via Soundcloud.

VIC VIRTUOSO:

On April 13th, Vic Virtuoso dropped a music video, for a self-produced song called "Pale Moon Light". This is his second music video, following "Heathen". Referencing The Joker, when he asks his prey/Bruce Wayne, "Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?", Vic Virtuoso takes us down a dark alley of personal thoughts, past sins, death, and friends turned enemies. Watch the music video below (or go directly to Youtube to watch in HD). Directed by none other than Chad A. Marshall. Stream and download the song on Soundcloud, too!

RAZOR:

Razor's Oblivious to Nonsense album comes out this summer, and he posted up a song from it. Produced by Rellim and Arm$trong, "24Seven" finds A-Fresh and Razor rapping about pushing through struggle, having a great work ethic, and striving for success. From the hook: "Money on my mind, like 24/7 // So I gotta go hard in every single one of my studio sessions // Money on my mind, like 24/7 // Bitch, I've been a man from a young age, like I skipped adolescence." Stream the song below!

Get ready for Papa J. Ruiz's HR-1955 album with the official album teaser. It is set for a March 25, 2015 release.

Vida Killz

Vida Killz has officially released her short story collection Thoughts While Dreaming: Collection 1. I'm looking forward to picking this up to explore more of Vida Killz' literature via her short stories.

If you were unaware, Vida Killz has commenced selling hardcopies of Negative Space again which are available by clicking here.

Three New OGT Albums

The Purity of Love and War by Von Poe VII

Von Poe VII doesn't waste anytime relaying powerful words in The Purity of Love and War. "Basquiat" commences the album and Von Poe VII makes tremendous use of words in this track. It's eye-opening jaw-dropping poetry. The ending skit on "Basquiat" featuring Jay Z gives you an idea of what the album is about.

It is also important to note that Poe has included 5 tracks that can also be found on his previous albums VONPOEVII and ONLY GODZ RELATE. I really like that idea because if new listeners like those tracks (for example, "Cowboy Bebop") they will go back to those albums. Basically it's a great way to still promote those albums while at the same time focusing on the new one.

Although it is hinted in "Basquiat" that the album is about love and war on the road to success I also feel that it is the love and war that Poe has experienced since being in the Hip-hop scene. He has made a lot of relationships within and outside Organized Threat and I believe that the The Buttress and Papa J. Ruiz solo's represent the "love" experience. As far as the "war" experience, Poe isn't shy in relaying his tenet of the current state of the rap game and his experiences with former Organized Threat members and those who tried to beef with the threat.

As far as putting focus on single tracks I appreciate the contrast between the tone of production and tone of Poe's voice in "Dante's inferno". The insertion of previous tracks such as "Phlegmatic" also remind me of my favorite lines from Poe such as the following "And my word is bond but, they don't understand it / so now I'm posted up in the garden with 2 leprechauns and a bandit". To this day I still don't understand what the garden, leprechauns, and bandit are supposed to represent and it doesn't bother me. It just fascinates me to keep thinking about what it could mean and those words strung together make prevent the track from being scant in poetry.

Words that are evoked when listening to The Purity of Love and War; poetry, frustration, genuine, yearning for something more (maybe recognition).

Samples Of Fire by Joogy Jugg

This 15 track beat tape from the Organized Threat producer Joogy Jugg features an array of sounds. All rappers are welcome to utilize these beats to their advantage. All we ask is that you give the proper credit to Joogy Jugg. Organized Threat is not only a movement but a family. That comes into play when Joogy allows Rellim to get a slot on his tape with "Jazz Work". Tracks like "Blue Flame, "THinkHiR", "Du Wop", "Sunlight", and "Cruising U.S.A." are some of my favorite tracks and justify Joogy Jugg's usage of the title Samples Of Fire. 

Before You Enter; The Ghost Room by Xican Brown

Xican Brown is one of the newest additions to the Organized Threat roster. Although we have seen his visual "God's Gravedigga" we still didn't know too much about him. His new album Before You Enter; The Ghost Room gives us more insight on his creative mind and who he is as an artist. Tracks like "Holy Water" and "Change for 20 Cents" are tracks you really do not want to miss. Live From The Ghost Room will be Xican Brown's next album.

Words From Fiasco

There is your new OGT Weekly! To make sure you have everything down pact, check it over a second time. If you don't know how to introduce somebody to Organized Threat, this OGT Weekly will get the job done. I'm not going to hope you enjoyed this OGT Weekly because I know you did. I composed it.

OGT Weekly 10/15/2014 created by FiascoTheGod

#BREAKINGNEWS: Starting Januay 2015 Organized Threat will begin the process of their group album. The album is also scheduled for a late 2015/early 2016 release. To prove that I am not lying, I have strategically placed the official tweet below.

#QUICKTHOUGHT: As a fan/listener/follower for Organized Threat looking in from the outside, one thing does concern me about the process of this album. That one thing is the loyalty of members. I'm not questioning the loyalty of anybody right now in the group but, we've seen a fair share of members leave the camp this year. Anything can really happen in a year with any one current member. Goals change. Mindsets change. It happens. Imagine what would happen if the members from the begging of this year all decided to work on the album this year? It would be ruined. But, I am assuming Von Poe VII used his good judgement and does not question the loyalty of the current members of Organized Threat. With that being said, this will be the very first Organized Threat album. The album will mean so much more if everyone who is on the first one is on the last.

Song Of The Blog: Play JMega The God's  "Veterans Day" while reading up on the latest Organized Threat news.

Welcome to my dungeon. This what you waited on. This what you waited on. This is FiascoTheGod and I am currently alive to supply you with the latest Organized Threat news.



I can feel it my soul



When Poe laces up and puts on his grill you know the visual is about to be fire. Even though this is Poe's visual he was able to balance the attention and put the appropriate amount of focus on the dancer Reginald Anthony Webber Jr. The scenes of Webber dancing with the pillars surrounding him, may be the best scenes Chad A. Marshall (Von Poe VII) has ever shot. "Cowboy Bebop" is produced by Ruman and can be located on Von Poe VII's album ONLY GODZ RELATE.


Did You Know This About The Threat? 

As I continue to not only be a blogger for Organized Threat but, as a fan as well, I always want to learn more about them. I was able to get in contact with Von Poe VII and have him send me five facts about Organized Threat. Here are 2 of those 5 facts below. The 5th fact was a question I came up with on my own because it's something I've been wondering about. So I crushed my wonder and asked the question. I also urge you to go read the rest of the facts because I also included a lot of dope music by Organized Threat, too.

2. Organized Threat was started in 2006 by Chad A. Marshall and a Spanish teacher from his Highschool, Chad A. Marshall is the only original member still in the camp (if you don’t include the reboot of the group that happened in 2012).

Fact #5 is one that I was personally interested in so I had to make sure I obtained the story behind this fact. A sample of a gentleman saying “Organized Threat is the future” can be found on a couple of OGT tracks. This is how it happened.

5. Von Poe VII said, “the bum sample came from a trip to Vegas while filming “Black Pyramid”. He wanted a cig and I told him only if he said OGT on camera. I felt it was cheesy for an MC in the camp to say it. Kinda bias you know? But a bum on the street? Golden”.

Reality Check



Razor accurately translated the ruthless feeling in the track to the visual with his manifestation of his actions in this visual directed by Chad A. Marshall. This track and more can be found on Razor's album F.A.I.T.H. Although this album is dope, according to Poe, we can expect even better on Razor's next project.

Actually, this new @ThisIsRAZOR project is sounding disgustingly dope. Goddamn, we finally getting that RAZOR we've been waiting for.

More Music From The Threat

EmptySev dropped a new track entitled "Gas Chamberz". Faces must have really went into a grimey no holds barred mind state to produce this beat. It is currently getting daily rotation in my playlist and it ranks right next to my other favorite track by him "Bloody Sabre".



Jasson C blesses us with his first single "Dolphins (Tom Hanks)" off his upcoming album. We witness a focused (as always) Jasson C on this track who's looking to get awards like Tom Hanks. If you ain't doing it big don't do it at all!

Vida Killz Destructs and Rebuilds in order to take charge and lead in her latest EP Destruction: Rebirth of Self. This is a collaboration effort with producer GRIEF78 and this is their last installment to their trilogy.

Organized Threat has also this Organized Threat Mix series. There have been two volumes released so far. The first one was composed by Rellim and the second by Ruman. Both feature several quality tracks from a few artists from the camp. I really think this is a good way to get someone into Organized Threat. If you know someone who hasn't heard of Organized Threat yet, send them these two mixes. And if you're really friendly, show a random person at your local grocery store.

OGT Mix Vol. 1 by Rellim



OGT Mix Vol. 2 by Ruman

JG has released a real piece of art in "The Prologue EP". This is his first installment in his Stay Still series. JG says,“The concept for the upcoming Stay Still is that the world has essentially ended. And the tracks take you through the types of people and feelings that someone in a post apocalyptic world would see/feel. But it’s so far removed from the actual event that the event itself lies in some folklore grey area”. What really impresses me about this project is JG's voice and delivery. I don't know how to explain it in a rational matter. His delivery is just smooth and uncracked. Almost like there are no faults. JG really raps his ass off in this project and I honestly think he has potential star power. Click here to listen.

If JG has one role (either MC or producer) I would really like to hear him spit a verse and see how he matches up with the other elite MCs of Organized Threat.

Limited Edition Posters!

Papa J. Ruiz has released limited edition HR 1955 posters up for sale on his bandcamp. There are only 4 left so if it's something you are unsure of getting I say go for it! You don't want to have any regrets later on. In order to prevent your potential regret, click here to purchase the limited edition posters.

#SECONDBREAKINGNEWS: Organized Threat officially welcomes new member Koolz One.



Koolz One spits about the Hip-hop he grew up on and that's what makes this the perfect introduction. With a new artist in the camp brings new opportunities for in house collabs and I am looking forward to that.

FiascoTheGod closes his blog with a few words. He won't see you again for a whole month!

Before I conclude this OGT Weekly, I want to give a quick belated birthday shout out to DJ Starchild!

Befive you carry on with your activities as a human being take a second look at the blog and share it with someone! If you're not a human being and you're able to read this, you're cool as fuck. We should chill sometime. Hit me up.

#TrailerTrash: Recognized as a producer with Organized Threat, Rellim continues to explore his abilities as an MC in his latest album Trailer Trash. Although I believe Rellim has some kinks to workout as an MC, this project should not go unnoticed by Organized Threat fans. We know Rellim for his ability to produce sounds that Organized Threat poets/MCs are able to go off on but, now we literally hear from him. His experiences. His struggles. Here is Trailer Trash.



#Namaste: Von Poe VII is looking to get his "Namaste" video to 10k views before he releases his next video so I will leave it below for you to watch and share.



#ThreatBack: Here is a "ThreatBack" video for you guys. Von Poe VII says it's one of Vida Killz' top 5 tracks. What do you think?

IM THE MOTHAFUCKIN GREATEST
— Sonny Dillinger (@sevenxempty) August 20, 2014

[WWU]

HELLO OGT FANS AND FANATICS, FRIENDS AND FOES !

Reunited and it feels so good minions! Welcome once again to this wonderful moment we have together. I'm sure you all know by now, I fucking love to talk about how much it matters to stand up and take action for what we believe in, whatever that may be. I also love to fucking talk about how important it is to mobilize and organize our voices in unison. I mean come on fuckers, lets face it; we all human; we all have the same internal organs; we all need water to drink and food to eat; we all need places to defecate. We may all be rolling along in different directions and at different speeds, but its our hearts and minds that lead us, and God knows we have that in common. Some though, they don't believe, they've lost hope and gone astray. They have been poisoned by doubt and retreat to solitude in resentment looking deep within themselves to find a pot of gold that was never placed. The goose couldn't lay the golden egg alone and loneliness isn't worth one's weight in gold. But with the pressure of all our voices united as one we can create diamonds; we can motivate and cultivate change. BECAUSE LETS FACE IT PEOPLE! Everyday we don't take a stand for what we believe in, we are letting corporate America rape us and we are tacitly consenting to support what they stand for. When you fill up your car with gas you're supporting big oil companies like Chevron who pollute the amazon by dumping their leftover waste water into its pristine rivers. When you go to Walmart and buy yourself some fucking toothpaste you're supporting the import of tuna caught illegally through bottom trolling fishing methods that unnecessarily kills tens of thousands of sea turtles every year. The list goes on and on but the truth is blatant; If you don't stand up for something you believe in, you'll be standing for a bunch of unnecessary bullshit you didn't even really know you were standing for. And the only way to change this crazy thing called life is by standing together, being loud and being proud. Organized Threat stands loud and proud, and overall for the greater good and love of mankind. There's a certain kinda power that comes with numbers, we all know this. So don't be ignorant, perhaps stand with us, or at least stand for something. Or else you'll stand for nothing but bullshit.

While composing this blog I thought to myself, "what has Jasson C been up to?". My curiosity led me to send him a tweet to see if I could find the answer. Ultimately he let it be known that a "great flood" will be approaching.

@FiascoTheGod very soon. Im a couple mixes away from the great flood
— Capt. J Chucka (@JassonC) July 7, 2014

I am pleased to close out this blog with 2 new tracks from Organized Threat!

The first comes from JMega The God with his new sound "Written In Steel". JMega The God lays down his godly delivery over production by Aquarius Minded. JMega FLEXXX's HARD in this track.

"I bust guns for my niggas who bust guns for me / I shed blood for my niggas who shed blood for me" - JMega The God.

Whether he meant this metaphorically or literally is not important. It is the message behind it. A motto that some family's (blood related or not) go by. This rings true for JMega and his family.

We also have new music from Rellim and Jasson C. Guess what?! Rellim isn't the producer on this track, he is an emcee alongside Jasson C! When you compare the two you can clearly notice that Jasson C is the more developed emcee but, Rellim still holds his own! Listen to their new track "That Notion" which I praised in my blog for using the word "notion". No it's not the most complex of words but, when it comes to tracks that play off of a word, it is usually a simple word. "That Notion" raises that bar intellectually and creatively.

THERE YOU HAVE IT!

There is your latest Organized Threat news! It is drenched in important news and thought provoking quotes/tweets. Before you continue with your Monday antics, read over the blog one more time and make sure you share it with a friend! Don't forget to check out the video of the blog! You can now consider me, FiascoTheGod your savior.

Freedom Fighters

Hey, OgTWeekly readers. Being that yesterday was the 4th of July--a day of celebrating your freedom--I wasn't able to write up my post yesterday. That's a day for family, friends, fun, food, fireworks, and everything else fantastic. Even if I did, it wouldn't have been looked at, because all of you were busy, too! I'm here for you today, though! To coincide with the holiday weekend, why don't you press play on songs like Yarah Bravo's "Freedom Fighters," K'Naan's "Waving Flag", Common's "A Dream", Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Free Bird", Jimi Hendrix's "Freedom", Simon & Garfunkel's "America", The Guess Who's "American Woman", George Clinton's "Paint The White House Black", The Goats "Typical American", and/or Public Enemy's "Fight The Power"?! Just some tunes that came to mind. Anyway, let's get into it!

POETIC DEATH: As you may already know, the CDs of Poe's ONLYGODZRELATE album have officially arrived (sneak peek picture). This means that everyone who pre-ordered one via his IndieGoGo campaign, you will be receiving yours soon (if you haven't already)! If you haven't ordered yours yet, and would like to, make sure you hit up his WEBSITE/BANDCAMP PAGE to make your purchase. Oh yeah, and if you live in BAKERSFIELD, Poe will be around the city over the weekend, selling and hand-delivering signed copies... for the a special deal of $25! If you want to get in on that, make sure you holler at Poe (in this status or send him a message by hitting up the contact section of his WEBSITE).

PAPA J: On Papa J's Facebook, he left a message for all of his fans: "HR-1955 coming soon - iii want to send this out to all my supporters that pump my music, people from family to friends but also all of you iii can not reach in person yet.

You can find his email right here.

Check out this photo of Joogy Joog, Papa J, and Poetic Death, when they were all hanging out and being productive on the music front in Denver, Colorado.

Lastly, Papa J would like to get the music video for "Bout iiiT" to 100K. It's currently sitting at 85K+. Watch it again and share it with your friends. The song is from his NO R3COLL3CTION album, in case you were wondering.

RAZOR: Recently, Razor was tagged in a #16BarChallenge and submitted his video on Friday. He said, "I'm open to both positive & negative criticism, so feel free to leave a comment & share this video. I'm inviting ABSOLUTELY ANYBODY to show everyone the level of your creativity ;)" WATCH/LISTEN TO HIS 16 BARS HERE!

YARAH BRAVO: Yarah Bravo is back on the road, and TONIGHT she is doing a show in Lambach, Austria. It will take place at The Bakery and it goes down promptly at 18:00 (6PM). Go ahead and get your live performance fix! Check the Facebook event for the details!

That's all for today. Stay tuned for next week.
Have an amazing weekend!
XOXO, Tiffology

When the sky darkens...

POETIC DEATH: Being that today is Friday the 13th, I feel that this day is a good lead in for what's new with Poe. We have seen the sneak peek photos and the talk of the brand new song that Poe recorded with The Buttress over the course of a few weeks now... and, finally, all of that excitement was met with the official music video a few days ago! Produced by Critical Distance, "COFFIN" is wrapped up in a mellow, head-nodding beat that finds two dark-minded, inner sinner rappers letting us know that even when they're dead, they'll still resurrect from the grave and raise hell on Earth (from the hook: "When the sky darkens, I'm awoken from my coffin). Poe takes on the first cult-like verse with a don't-give-a-fuck attitude and deadly, bury-you-where-you-stand rhymes. The Buttress creeps in with a hair-raising shriek just before she pulls grimy raps from the depth of her gut. This is her first collaboration, and I think they make a good team because it's a dope track. Special cameo from Aster, where she plays a spell-conducting, possessed girl seeking release. I wouldn't doubt that she's being possessed by the black magic that this deadly duo is reciting. Watch the music video in all its HD quality over at Youtube, or watch it in the mini player below.

Look out for the visuals to "Ready To Die" on the 21st!

PAPA J: Papa J dropped a new song called "La Sistema," that follows his life and how he's changed ("I done came a long way..."). Look out for this song on his forthcoming HR-1955 project. STREAM AND DOWNLOAD.

JMEGA: JMega dropped something heavy yesterday, guys. As a prelude to the True Masterz highly anticipated album Almagest, they unexpectedly released True Masterz Radio. It's a 24-track project that is comprised of new material and previously unreleased tracks, and it is a display of the trio's true elevation. Go STREAM / DOWNLOAD on Bandcamp for free (or name your price to support the artists).

VIDA KILLZ: After receiving many inquiries regarding whether or not Vida accepts beats, she let it be known that she definitely does. In this status, she supplied her email and said that she is currently looking for about 7 beats to finish off her forthcoming album, Daydreams and Nightmares. If she chooses your beat, you'll receive the album for free in return. So, if you feel that this is something you'd like to take part in, go ahead and send your stuff to her and/or if you know someone that would be interested, let them know what's up!

RICS RUMBLE: A brand new Cypher Effect video surfaced and the 7-minute session features Rics. He's up first, too, so watch the video and download the song for free.

RAZOR: Razor recently wrapped up a video shoot for his song "Pearly Gates," and posted a behind-the-scenes still from the shoot (look here). Be on the look out for that. Also, if you're in the North Hollywood area (and 21+ in age), then you can catch him performing at the Universal Bar & Grill TONIGHT (he mentioned it on Instagram). Doors open at 8pm. It's $12 at the door, so go show your support. Aside from doing the show, he will also be selling copies of his Sharper Than My Name album for $5. (Side note: You can catch Rics Rumble there, too!).

THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A.: Congratulations to THA FORMULA on graduating! Check out this photo of him all smiling and excited for the big, final day. There's also a photo of him and Razor posing together.

EMPTYSEV: EmptySev shared a brand new beat that he made, called "Broccoli". Crunchy, boom bap drums, sci-fi like elements, chopped vocals, and a funky piano line woven throughout... it's real nice! Listen to it now.

YARAH BRAVO: Yarah was featured on The Polish Ambassador's brand new album, on a song called "Nobody's Alone". It's a fun, danceable jam where she sends an uplifting, happy message of figuring out what YOU want and not letting someone's negativity destroy you. "I threw a life line in it, but you kept on sinking // And before I knew, I was drowning, too // No oxygen, looking down on me with a heartless grin // In the grimmest hearts of men // So, I'm not sorry for dancing // I'm not sorry for smiling // 'Cause I will not be seduced by your darkness."

I'm not a smoker, but for those of you that are, Yarah now has limited edition ZIGGI rolling papers for your smoking needs! You can get your hands on them during her in store show at the HHV.DE Store on June 21st (Facebook Event).

FEGGY MIN: Since I last wrote about Feggy doing a part two to her original Korean Hip Hop piece, she recently told us that she has created 27 new portrait outlines. She said, "There are still around 50 more portraits to do! Later when the Outlines of all Portraits are done, I will scan & (digital) coloring each of them and then put it all together to one piece." Have a look at a couple of sneak peeks that she has so kindly shared: here and here.

She also shared a close-up look of the Thug Li(f)e Hoodie that she has available in her store. And just for fun, watch the new San E & Raina music video for "A Midsummer Night's Sweetness" where you will find Feggy Min's art (spot the iphone case!).

SARA FLEUR: Last but not least, here's a brand new photo of Sara, where she's fully decked out in Feggy Min gear ("Blessed" long sleeve shirt & "9889" black leggings).

--------------------------------------
I know that was a lot of information to take in and process, but it's all good,
because you have the whole weekend to catch up.
Enjoy your night. Get your freak on. ;)
XOXO, Tiffology
