— HR1955 3/25 (@PapaJRuiz) February 27, 2015

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.


New OGT Audio

JG releases the last single off his upcoming Stay Still album with "Strict" featuring Vida Killz


Jasson C goes on a lyrically onslaught in his new sound "OG Diablo".





New OGT Visual

Yarah Bravo bilingually expresses herself in her new visual "Carousel".


Von Poe VII starts the release of visuals for The Purity of Love and War with "Basquiat". This is also his first visual of 2015.

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.

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.

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.

See What's New With OGT

I am FiascoTheGod. The clown on top of the tree. The wind in your hair. The raisin in your cookie. And I am here to provide you with the latest Organized Threat news.

Befive we begin, I would like to reply to a question that was proposed by Aster in her last OGT Weekly. The question of if people deserve a second chance. My answer is yes. The reason I say yes is because I know that I would like a second chance at a multitude of things if the opportunity presented itself. Although you could, it's not reasonable to expect people to succeed the first time around. Do you succeed the first time around in everything you do? If not, then why would you expect someone else to? People do deserve a second chance.

Allow me to inform you guys about a paper I have written. Oh, you allowed me? Thank you very much. Today I handed in a paper for my Literary Criticism class. I had to apply two literary theories to a text. The text that I chose was "Regret" by Poetic Death. This paper was probably the most challenging paper I have ever written. Partly due to the fact that this class is difficult and I do not 100% understand the criticisms that I used for the paper. I am sure not all of you are familiar with literary criticisms, but the two I chose were Lacanian and Deconstruction. I am not confident at all with the paper I handed in today, but here is an excerpt of the paper that I think you guys will enjoy:

The mirror stage does not cease at the end of verse one. Lines 38 to 43 showcase the aspect of the mirror stage when the baby knows since it can no longer reunite with the mother, it needs to seek attention and love from others. In this case Poetic Death seeks support “Cause Life Could Be a Trip Without Support From Those Who Need You / I was Told To Overcome / I Had To Build My Own Foundation / That Could Out-stand / Even The Toughest Of Situations” (38-43). His own foundation turned out to be Organized Threat. Organized Threat is a movement of artists that seek unity. The members of Organized Threat show love and support for Poetic Death and in return he accepts it because he cannot go back to the period of “oneness”  with his mother.

Basically in that paragraph I claimed that the reason why Poetic Death created Organized Threat was because he was searching for support and love from others because he was aware that he could never return to the period of "oneness" with his mother. "Oneness" meaning in his mother's belly. That's pretty deep stuff right? If the paper receives a grade that I am satisfied with, I will share the rest of the paper with you all.

I am sure there are new Organized Threat fans reading this so just to let you know, "Regret" is one of Poe's older pieces of work. He has taken down the video but, you can read the lyrics and listen to the track on Rap Genius by clicking here.

SEVEN EMPTY

EmptySev released his album "SEVEN EMPTY" this weekend and it can be streamed and downloaded by clicking here. You can own it for free but, you can also show your support for this piece of art by contributing a few dollars. I've been praising "Bloody Sabre" ever since he leaked it before the album released and now after my first listen today, I am praising the thought provoking track "Believe You Me". Let me know what tracks you are feeling in your first few listens to "SEVEN EMPTY" by leaving a comment below.

Poe Shooting A Video For "Paradox". Rellim Where You At Booooooy?

Von Pon VII tweeted Rellim to let him know that if he is still in L.A. that he could come through to the video shoot for his newest track "Paradox" which is produced by Rellim. Rellim still hasn't replied to his tweet though. Will Rellim ever respond to Poetic Death? Or did he not want to make it public and they communicated privately? Is Rellim permanently in L.A.? Will I ever get to...never mind. So many questions. Only one OGT Weekly.

Poetic Death has informed us via Twitter that he will be dropping videos for both "ONLY GODZ RELATE" and "VON POE VII" every month. You can gaze upon the official tweet by clicking here.

80k Or Nah?

Papa J. Ruiz challenges you guys to help get his video "Bout iiiT" to 80k views on the Youtube. Can we do this or nah?....Yah! We can so click here to view the video and share it with a couple of friends! Or if you just made a new enemy, show them this video so you guys can stop beefing and be friends! Yes to more friends!

That Concludes Tonight's Episode 

There is your latest Organized Threat news composed by me, FiascoTheGod. Remember, read the blog at least one more time to absorb all this new information. Pass along the news. Show someone new to Organized Threat and start them off with this blog. Befive you enter into a slumber, consider me your savior.

ONLY GODZ RELATE 4/14/2014

This is FiascoTheGod and I am here to provide the latest Organized Threat scoop.

ONLY GODZ RELATE IS HERE!!!

Well...where do I start? I should start off by stating that I have listened to ONLY GODZ RELATE by VON POE VII/Poetic Death. Although I have done this, I only listened to each song once. For me to proceed by analyzing this album or letting you know my favorite tracks, would be disrespectful. You may think I am being lazy but, am I really? This guy just put in work for the past several months and you expect me to go in depth on a 30 track album? No. It's not going to happen. There are still a few things I would like to shed light on even though I won't be able to go in depth about them. Poetic Death is known to inject historical information in his poetry and indeed he does so in this album, it is very noticeable on the track Road To Kemet where he and the features on the track shed light on the history of Ancient Africans. Not only does VON POE VII aim to assists with bringing knowledge to the forefront of Hip-hop, but he also utilizes an element in Hip-hop that could be argued has been lost. That element is DJ'ing. DJ Starchild provided the cuts on ONLY GODZ RELATE. VON POE VII says that ONLY GODZ RELATE "marks the next chapter to the introduction of Goth Hop / Sludge Hop, a combination of morbid poetry mixed with a desire and strive for a higher level of consciousness and overstanding". ONLY GODZ RELATE indeed continues the "Goth Hop / Sludge Hop" that first began with VON POE VII. To pre-order a copy of ONLY GODZ RELATE and help contribute to the campaign, click here. To check out my exclusive interview with VON POE VII/ Poetic Death, which focuses on ONLY GODZ RELATE click here.

And There Goes The Surprise...Lol. Thanks Sev!

I was trying to keep the interview I set up with EmptySev, a secret from my Street Khemistry team. I was keeping it a secret just for the simple fact I wanted it to be a surprise. EmptySev ruined that with this tweet!! "Tried typing up answers for this interview w/ @StreetKhemistry on my phone and my hand got numb as fuck. Haha I'll do it on the PC tomorrow". The interview will focus on his upcoming album SEVENEMPTY and I know the questions that I composed will force EmptySev to provide new and intriguing information not only on the album, but on himself. The album is scheduled to be released on May 3rd.

Upcoming OGT Performances

Gavlyn will be performing at Velvet Jones in Barbara, CA on April 24th. Click here to view the flyer. Gavlyn will also be performing the next day, April 25th, at the Back Bar in San Jose, CA. Click here to view the flyer.

And It Ends Like This...

There is your latest Organized Threat news! I was thinking about adding in a "Don't Fourget" or a "Random Organized Threat Tweet" (if you have read my previous blogs you'll know how those go) but, I decided to put as much attention on the historic release of ONLY GODZ RELATE. To show your support, leave a comment below that contains some of your favorite lines that can be heard on the album or tweet them to him @VonPoeVII. Once you have done so, you can consider me, FiascoTheGod, your savior.

WWU (Weekly Wednesday Update)

HELLO OGT FANS AND FANATICS, FRIENDS AND FOES !

 Congratulations my little nymphs and nymphettes! You've made it another week to this moment we have to share together and i'm exuberantly ready to spread the word about the weekly going-ons within THE MOVEMENT. As the days drag on, we crawl closer and closer to the release of the album that 'Devil's run from': VONPOEVII'S #ONLYGODSRELATE : It seems like everyday his fans are blessed with little structure previews of the construction process for #ONLYGODSRELATE, which in my opinion allows the fan to form a deeper bond once finally hearing the album because essentially, the fan has witnessed the album throughout its creation; from start to finish. The interactive dedication VONPOEVII maintains with his fans is admirable, valuable, and not to mention rare and quite advantageous. That being said, if you haven't gotten to check out the latest #ONLYGODSRELATE update, look below. I ejaculate information, and you my little minions, swallow it. You're welcome.

LOYALTY

HELLO OGT FANS AND FANATICS, FRIENDS AND FOES !

LET'S TALK ABOUT LOYALTY

CLAIM YOUR LOYALTY | #ORGANIZEDTHREAT #THEMOVEMENT
— ORGANIZED THREAT (@OrganizedThreat) March 19, 2014

The ORGANIZED THREAT tweet above sparked my interest and really got me thinking about my own definition of loyalty. First, I find it beneficial to review the technical definition (and by technical I do mean Google's definition since Google is a very well recognized authority figure nowadays) of loyalty, to see the interpretation i'd be up against in court if need ever be. You know never, I mean someone filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit over the definition of 'Dress'; As much as it doesn't matter to the lay man, this shit is important. The definition is as follows:

1. loy·al

   ˈloiəl/

   adjective

   1. giving or showing firm and constant support or allegiance to a person or institution.

loy·al·ty

ˈloiəltē/

noun

noun: loyalty

1.                                       the quality of being loyal to someone or something.                                                                                         

                                                     "her loyalty to her husband of 34 years"                                             

   1. a strong feeling of support or allegiance.

   • plural noun: loyalties

     "fights with in-laws are distressing because they cause divided loyalties"

As you can see, being loyal is technically about 'showing or giving firm and constant support or allegiance to a person or institution'. Inevitably, everyone interprets it differently, but roughly the concept is the same. Really makes you wonder though, Is loyalty a characteristic or a choice, or possibly both? If it is indeed a quality, does that mean that if you're once loyal you're loyal forever? If someone cuts you off or otherwise removes themselves from your life, does that mean their loyalty was arbitrary from the jump? What in the hell does 'firm and constant support' boil down to? It seems to me that, as they say, loyalty is a way of life, not a switch that can be turned on and off at any and every whim to do so. Loyalty is static, not variable. But things do change, and so do people. I'm proud to bear witness to The Movement and the group of individuals behind that Movement who profoundly employ loyalty as a lifestyle rather than a loose-ended decision. Sapplings may sometimes uproot themselves or be uprooted due to improper growth, but overall this forest I walk through shades and reveals all the right things in all the right ways. Think about that last one. In the meantime, to help you contemplate your own interpretation of that peculiar thing called 'Loyalty' please enjoy these words of wisdom, and may your own roots be established in the soil that's right for you.

:AND LASTLY:

WHAT'S THE WORST THAT COULD HAPPEN, YOU ASK?

Untitled 3/17/2014

At the time Poetic Death released VON POE VII, I was a brand new listener and there were many things that impressed me about the album that convinced me to stay a listener. One of those things was Poetic Death allowing Overstand Basics to recite one of his own poems on the album. Yes, it is labeled as a skit but I see it as a track on the album (I normally don't consider skits as a track on an album). Why did it impress me? Well for one, it is a sick ass poem. Secondly, Poetic Death basically let another person obtain some sort of shine on his album and Poetic Death was not even part of it. It wasn't Poetic Death featuring Overstand Basics, it was just Overstand Basics. To me, that showed me that Poetic Death is more concerned about putting out the best possible piece of art. If that means allowing a poet to do his own thing on the album, then Poe is willing to do that. As fans/listeners/admirers/bloggers we should all look for that when we are searching for an artist. We shouldn't settle for someone who is not willing to let another artist obtain some shine just because he or she believes that since it is their album, they should be the main attraction and all attention should be focused on them. We should not settle for less because it is our time and money that we invest in.

It's FiascoTheGod and I am here to provide you with the latest Organized Threat news.

Overstand Basics To Be On ONLY GODZ RELATE?

What triggered the thought to compose that introduction was a brief conversation Poetic Death and Overstand Basics had via Twitter. Poetic Death tweeted "@overstandbasics bro can you shoot me that poem again, the email got scrambled". Now I know I may look like an idiot now. There isn't much to come to the conclusion that Overstand Basics will indeed be on ONLY GODZ RELATE but there is a possibility. Of course that isn't saying much when I can basically say something outrageous and go, "well there is a possibility". But no, really...Overstand Basics appearing on the album seems like a possibility.

Update From The General

If you haven't noticed, there has not been much activity going on with the Organized Threat Youtube channel. The general, Poetic Death acknowledges this in a recent Facebook status. Click here to read what he had to announce.

Poetic Death To NY

Poetic Death tweeted that he will be going to New York in May. He confirmed with me via Twitter that this trip will be to shoot a music video with producer Saheed who is confirmed as one of the producers on ONLY GODZ RELATE. You can check out our brief Twitter exchange by clicking here.

The Latest On JG

Producer JG has created a Tumblr page that will focus solely on "background information on [his] tunes". JG entitled his page THE SITES & SOUNDS OF JG. In his first blog post he mentions his contribution to Vida Killz' Negative Space project:

The “Intro” and “Outro” to vidakillz Negative Pace album were actually sent to Vida as one track. She split it and turned the resulting pieces into the opener and closer of this fantastic album.

This is a really good idea by JG. The Organized Threat fans will surely enjoy background information about the music that JG has created. Fans receive historical information and they are also reminded of older pieces of work and may feel inclined to go back and listen to it. (I am not implying that nobody listens to older pieces of music. We don't always remember ever song by each artist, you know?). It would be really cool if other members of Organized Threat decided to do something like JG is doing. Even if it's not on a consistent basis, it will still be intriguing to learn background information, when we do obtain it. To read the rest of JG's blog, click here. 

Papa J. Ruiz x JG

It looks like Papa J. Ruiz and JG have something in the works. JG tweeted Papa J. mentioning that he would like to have a verse on a beat entitled Butter that he sent him and Papa J. Ruiz gave him the green light. Eventually Papa J. received JG's verse but wants a longer verse from JG. You can peep their Twitter conversation by clicking here. 

Formulating A Thought

THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A. recently sent out a tweet that is composed of his opinion on some MCs. He tweeted, "I feel like some mc's run out subject matter so they go back to same themes Money; choes, drugs, cloths cuz it sells and people will dance". Now, at this moment I do not have a response. Although I do not have a response, I do not think he is out of line either. What I would like to know as I am sure he is as well, is your opinion.

FLEXXXCOAST

Have you ever wanted to be somebody else? Not another person that is already existing, but a brand new person? Is the fact that the adult figures in your life and possibly your peers telling you, without justification that, you should be happy with who you are, prevented you from exploring the option of being a completely different person? Well I am here to tell you that it is okay to want to be a completely different person. We are all on this planet for a short amount of time. 1 day or 100 years, both are still a short time to be on this planet. It is up to you to experience it the way you want. If you want to take a chance and be a different person, go out and do that. One way you can do that is through art. Poetic Death is a great example of what I am talking about. He holds various alter-egos such as Lord Darcia, Von Poe VII, and I think he has an alter-ego in his duo with EmptySev when they call themselves FLEXXXCOAST. Having an alter-ego in art may be as close as you can get to being a new person (unless you have a psychological disorder). And if you were ever worried about people judging you, no one can ever be justified in judging somebody for having an alter-ego in art. Although I just mentioned Poetic Death as a prime example of alter-egos, what really sparked this thought is EmptySev's latest track entitled Bloody Sabre when he goes by the alter-ego Victor Kreed. As a fan, this is my favorite track created by EmptySev, and it comes as his first released track by his alter-ego Victor Kreed. Experimenting with alter-egos within art can possibly bring out the best in you. Not only that but you may learn a little bit more about yourself. When I think about an alter-ego I figure that although this is an ego that is supposed to be different from the original person, somehow or someway, there are traits of that original person into his or her alter-ego that were stored deep deep inside that persons conscious. Maybe traits and thought processes that the original person was never able to express before but now can thanks to a new life. I believe that that's the coolest thing about a simple name change. You produce things that you may have never thought possible.

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

The Birth Of Victor Kreed

As I mentioned in the opening paragraph, EmptySev released a new track under the alter-ego Victor Kreed. It is entitled Bloody Sabre and it is produced by Ruman. Although I was intrigued from line 1 to the last, what really had me going was how EmptySev was able to use his name within Bloody Sabre as Victor Kreed.

yo, trynna fuck wit Vic is like attemptin 7 murdas,
with a spork in your hand, take a step in my land,
a buncha empty bottles and verses written on napkins,

As you can see Victor Kreed was able to sneak EmptySev in those three lines, "7 murdas" and "empty bottles". I don't know if that was done intentionally or not but it was cool to discover that by myself. Whether it was done intentionally or not does not take away from the creativity and effort put behind those lines. I know EmptySev is focused on working on his new album but hopefully, as a greedy fan, he is able to release some more tracks under Victor Kreed. And if he loses the need to want to create more art under that alter-ego, rest in peace to Victor Kreed. 

Latest On The Villain

As we near closer to Poetic Death's release of Only Godz Relate, he lets us know of a track that he is very happy about. Poe tweeted, "Got this track called "Lord Darcia". Very happy with how this came out lol".

Communion, Rusted Hallways and now...well we will see. Poetic Death announced via Twitter that Devour will be on Only Godz Relate (well he doesn't really specify but it's safe to assume so) and it will be produced by Rellim. Poetic Death tweets, "Got this track with my bro @DevourUpp that I KNOW is gonna be dope, and where it's placed on the album is crazy. Produced by @stonedrellim".

Poetic Death has mentioned before that he is thinking of starting a street team and over the weekend he officially introduced to us The VII Villainz Movement. Although it won't be active until June you can like the Facebook page by clicking here and there is also a Twitter account you can follow by clicking here. 

Poetic Death also let us know via Twitter that he has a track with Rics Rumble, "Man I got this joint with @RicsRumbles right, and this dude drops solid "ouches" throughout his whole verse. Whoa...". I don't know what "ouches" means but it sounds really good! Maybe "ouches" can be a new term to describe dope lines within a verse. Hmmm... 

Let The Writing Begin

Razor lets us know that he has started the writing process for his third album. Although it won't be released for "quite some time" he will be releasing music videos off his first album Sharper Than My Name and his second album F.A.I.T.H. To official see the announcement click here to view his Facebook status. 

Gavlyn Has THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A.

THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A. announced via Twitter that he is currently working on a track with Gavlyn. He tweeted "Working on a record with @GavlynAndShit.. Stay tuned". When it comes to beats produced by THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A. I think about chill and laid back beats. If this happens then we may see Gavlyn go to work and create something similar to the songs on her Modest Confidence album. THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A. does not always deliver what you expect so what I just typed may not be at all what the two have in store for us. Either way, these two are Organized Threat members which means hard work, passion, honesty and creativity will be behind every second of the track.
