My threat is organized

Hello, everyone! It's Friday, so you know one of the Two Tiffs of CrayonBeats are here to update you on the Organized Threat camp. Blammo! It's Tiffology. Now, let's get into it...

SHOW YOUR LOYALTY: Following their Organized Threat t-shirts released earlier this year, they now have crewnecks available! Yeeeeep, all that anticipation and noise for more gear can be silenced with some fresh crewnecks for these winter months. Having teamed up once again with Insanity Ink Clothing, OgT bring you their "Silencer T" crewnecks. Peep the exclusive commercial for it below, then GET YOURS at Insanity Ink for only $30.

WATCH IT IN HD. 

BONNIE BLUE: On November 9th, Bonnie mentioned that she recorded with Daftstar for a Bonnie Blue and Intelligent Tongues mashup over an Eyelim beat. Keep your eyes peeled for the full video soon via her Facebook page. Here's a behind the scenes shot.

GAVLYN: Tonight you can catch her performing in Oxnard, California, at the Fresh Mex Bar & Grill. It's an all ages show and the doors open at 8PM. Get in where you fit in! Check this flyer for more information or hit up this Facebook event. And, if you didn't follow Aster's advice about listening to Gavlyn's newly released song "Cheap Amusement," do that now!

VIDA KILLZ: Yesterday was Vida's birthday. You should all show some (belated) love to her on her page, or buy some music from her Bandcamp to show your true support. Something! Towards the end of the night, she made a post on Facebook where she spoke briefly about the ups and downs that she has endured while being 24 years old. But despite everything, she expresses how her experiences have helped her grow and she looks ahead with a positive attitude. This woman of strength left her fans with the following words of advice: "Stay pure, stay true, and live boldly. Let no one stop you from reaching your goals, and always spread love."

She also made note that she's picking up a camera on Monday and will start filming a music video for the song "Lady Death Pt. II" from Negative Space, along with a few other tracks. Subscribe to her Youtube channel for updates.

DJ STARCHILD + DEVOUR: Presented by King, DJ Starchild and Devour will be performing in South Central on Saturday, November 16th. It's an all ages show from 6-10PM, and the fee is only $10. See the flyer for the location.

While on the subject of Devour, he'll also be doing a special Meet & Greet + album signing (grab REDRUM if you haven't already) the following day (SUNDAY) at the Music Revolution Store in Whittier. He'll also have merch, too. More info at this Facebook event.

RAZOR: Released today, watch the music video for Razor's song "On My Own," from his Sharper Than My Name album (available with the name-your-price fee) released in May. With a soulful, snare-and-horn powered beat produced by SirRealest, Razor spits honest and personal lyrics about his perspective on the rap scene in his area, his work ethic, where his loyalty lies, and goals for the future. I really like this song. Sometimes all you really have is yourself. "My threat is organized, you know I control the throne // At the top, but I started from the bottom on my own." Video directed by Chad. A Marshall. Cameo by THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A.

WATCH IT IN HD.

Razor is preparing to release his forthcoming album titled F.A.I.T.H. (acronym for Fully Amplified Intellect Towards Haters) this coming January. A couple days ago, he leaked a new track from it called "Sickness." The song features Ganjre the Giant and was produced by Chapter 3 Beats. Stream it over on Soundcloud and grab that free download!

You can also find Razor on stage as a special guest with MER5E at the I'm On A Boat Music Festival in Long Beach tomorrow. It takes place from 11:30AM to Midnight, so you should check the massive lineup here, and see what's up.

PAPA J & JOOGY JUGG: Hey ladies! These two are giving away free shirts via Twitter or Instagram participation. All that they ask is that you post a picture or video with your favorite song/video, and tell them what line in the song has really helped you in life. You must tag both @PapaJRuiz AND @JoogyJugg. You have until the 25th, so get to it!

FEGGY MIN: Your favorite artistic and fashion-focused girl Feggy Min sat in front of the camera and recorded her first vlog. Thanking her fans worldwide, she shows love to everyone that continues to support her, while also giving a sneak peek into some new clothes. WATCH HERE. Although she apologizes for her English, "weird accent", and for her "bad-quality-webcam," it's great to see her in another format. Let's hope she makes this a regular thing. She has nothing to apologize for, either! Too cute. Plus, towards the end, you'll see a few bloopers.

One more thing... on the 13th, she posted a photo of her wearing some of her new "9889" collection with the following statement: "I am so excited! This is like a new beginning, a real beginning for me... right now I am (re-)creating the whole new collection (again) since the samples I did are already sold out before the release (at my event) and sent to Korea... SO MUCH TO DO but I am happy." We're excited for you, too, Feggy! Take a look!

------------------

That's all, folks! I hope you all have a great weekend. If you feel that you have missed something, don't hesitate to scroll through the rest of the blog to find informational updates from the other three writers.

-- Much love, Tiffology

LifeAfterDeath

HELLO OGT FANS AND FANATICS, FRIENDS AND FOES!

This week in the Organized Threat family, we were blessed with two new pieces of poetry; LifeAfterDeath written by Empty Sev and Cheap Amusement written by GAV.

#BREAKINGNEWS: New music from EmptySev (@SevenxEmpty) shedding a bit more light into his background and private... http://t.co/WTVmu2F8Ju
— ORGANIZED THREAT (@OrganizedThreat) November 12, 2013

LifeAfterDeath paints a dark picture of Empty Sev, featuring notions of pain, addiction, confusion, pride and love. Empty Sev shares with his audience memories of his childhood, and by doing so portrays a message strong enough to represent the voices of many. Traumatic events are some of the most influential character definers. Whether it be beneficial or maleficent, traumatic events change peoples lives. Ask any artist and nine out of ten of them will admit to being influenced by a traumatic event before the age of 21. Andrew Carnegie, the philanthropist and part time philosopher [Yes, you're right, its the Carnegie Hall guy] grew up all of his young adult life eating from soup kitchens. But shit, now the man is legendary for public libraries and being the Prince of Steel [that's what she said...]. My point being, tragedy can be beautiful, because tragedy can be challenging. Empty Sev exemplifies and artist motivated by the beauty of experience. Enjoy and vibe out to the tunes Fellas and Fellettes.

Miss GAV also recently put out a new single she titled Cheap Amusement

— ORGANIZED THREAT (@OrganizedThreat) November 13, 2013

This week, we visualize a very intriguing and fearless GAV. Her words are saturated with resentment, cloaked by a fervent message in its rawest form. Listen to the story of what once was and zone out to the metaphors.

#BREAKINGNEWS Yarah Bravo is rocking a show in Vienna this Saturday that is dedicated to Tupac. For any of you about to catch that show, make sure to follow the link below for more details on how to reserve your seat and support your local OGT artist!

Bark Bark

FiascoTheGod is here to provide you the latest news that arose this past weekend. Before we start off, if you didn't check out Friday's OGT Weekly, composed by Tiffny, you can do so by clicking here.

Organized Threat's approach to closing out 2013 is looking stellar. Papa J.'s release date for his "5:55 AM" mixtape, is slowly or, depending on your current perception of time, rapidly making it's way. That isn't the only thing Organized Threat members and fans need to be aware of. Poetic Death made an announcement via Twitter that a music video for Jasson C is on its way, and videos from other members of OGT, as well. The tweet reads, "New visuals for @JassonC on the way, new visuals from the camp in general on the way. We about to end the year & fuck shit up for that 2014". Razor seems to be indirectly involved in Poetic Death's tweet. Razor tweeted, "Video shoot was a success today with @VonPoeVII. Will be dropping soon ;) #OnMyOwn".

Outside of the music: On Twitter, Gavlyn is promoting her T-shirts and crewnecks that are featured on Broken Complex's website. They both feature a well designed portrait of Gavlyn, with Broken Complex and Organized Threat logos on the back. From fashion to podcast we go! Bonnie Blue has landed a co-host position with CrappyAwesome.com. The podcast is focused on engaging in deep conversations with your favorite artists or maybe some that you may never heard of before. With her sense of humor on a high level, Bonnie Blue looks ready to go, "Crappyawesome.com  <------let us come inside....your life".
 
The "Organized" in Organized Threat needs to be emphasized while reading the previous two paragraphs. Not only are they prepared to close out the year, but their arsenal for 2014 is currently in the works as we speak. 2014 will be a journey for Organized Threat, so initiate the journey music...

Faces releases a sound entitled "Journeys". This track will be on his "Decembers" EP. This may not elicit a feeling of going through a journey, but the preparation of one. This is not meant for people who are worried or rushed in getting ready for an epic journey, this is for the organized. The ones who are calmly mapping out their next move, knowing that they will be successful. The ideal sound, as Organized Threat gets ready for 2014.

Vida Killz is featured in today's random Organized Threat tweet. She no longer speaks the language of a human being. She has now taking the form of a dog. A dog that lets out ambigious barks. Is she sad? Mad? Happy? I think I may have the answer. Vida Killz tweeted, "bark bark baaaark baaaaark baaaark baark". I've been studying dog language for the past 36.5 hours and I can tell you that, a bark with 4 "a's" in it, means that she wants to go outside. She does this bark twice which means she needs use the bathroom. You're welcome for the translation.

That's what happened over the past few days involving the Organized Threat camp. Allow their strategy for the upcoming year, inspire you to come up with your own plan for success.

What's up everyone!

It's Friday again! How's your week been? I hope your week has been better than mine; I had some gnarly sushi and suffered some even nastier food poisoning. I'll leave your imagination to flesh out the details. Anyway, I'm feeling much better now, and right on time as I'm here to catch you guys up to speed with the goings-on of a few members in the OGT crew. So let's begin, shall we?

SARA FLEUR has been quite busy doing some amazing shoots with Maurice Sinclair Fotografie (click to view). The photos are stunning. Also, back in September, Sara kicked it in South Korea with emcees New Champ and San E , fellow OGT lady Feggy Min and a shit-ton of other dope emcees during the One Hip Hop Festival back in September.

Speaking of FEGGY MIN and the festival, the artist is responsible for some badass artwork for BTS emcee Rapmon, NBB's New Champ, as well as being featured on Block B member Zico, and singer Zion T among others. She made a big impression with artists at the event: check San-E rocking her gear in his new video Where Did You Sleep feat. Verbal Jint. What's even more awesome is she's doing a give away of this limited edition prize pack featuring her Block B art via Facebook, Twitter and tumblr. Is a world wide ting, but the contest ends in 3 days so get on that. If you'd rather purchase the pack, there will be a very limited quantity on her shop (only 5!) so you still need to haul ass.

Also in the world of Feggy Min her clothing line 9889 is coming along ever so dopely. Set to launch in 2014, the line is made for "the young, the passionate and the strong spirited" with bold and colorful graphics, original artwork, and with each piece blessed by the hands of Feggy Min herself, the line is definitely going to blow the roof off and take it to the next level. I can't wait, can you?

DEVOUR's new video Tic Tock just dropped a few hours ago and as a tribute to The Lords Of The Underground, it's got a great old school vibe, from the beat, to the rhymes even with the straight forward no-frills visual. Special guests include Poetic Death, Rics Rumble, and DJ Starchild. Definitely living up to hot for you to kick off your weekend with. Check the video below.

It seems that about wraps up my Friday Post as Aster and FiascoTheGod have covered everything during the week. If you missed those posts, you can read them here and here.Well you guys, that's it! Have a great weekend, and don't get into too much trouble...or at the very least, don't get caught!

A Satellite Perspective

Hello OGT Fans and Fanatics, Friends and Foes

Perception is everything, or at least that's what VONPOEVII seems to illustrate with his newly released single 'Intro/Lucifer's Descent'. Off of the up and coming album EVII, Lucifer's Descent compels its listeners to stretch the limits of perception, up and above the realm of realistic particulars. Consider for example, "My metamorphosis is comparable to a caterpillar with paralysis" 1:16 [easily one of my favorite lines of the entire song]. VONPOEVII is known for continuously reaching new depths within his poetry, this not being an exception. I approached the interpretation of this particular line cautiously, because I smell the sweet nectar of a riddle. This particular line, along with every other line written by VONPOEVII, exemplifies a satellite perspective; it is written with an understanding that is not bound to any realistic particulars, but instead an understanding that is absolute and unchanging. I encourage you to give it a listen and see what kind of interpretation you all come up with. If you haven't done so already, great ready drop your panties for me because I have provided it below. Sit back, relax, and put your thinking caps on nymphs and nymphettes! Time to use those dusty brains.

What a busy week this has been for the Organized Threat Family! JOOGY JUG and PAPAJ RUIZ announced literally in the last few hours that they will be having a fan appreciation give away.

CLICK HERE to view the photo announcing the prizes, and be sure to follow JOOGY JUG for more info on the give away! Free shit rocks, especially when it's being given away by Organized Threat artists! Salute and Support.

This is the season of giving, so I'm pleased to relay that FEGGY MIN ART also just announced a package giveaway! Follow the tweet below for more details, and make sure to stayed tuned for news of future giveaway details from the Organized Threat Fambam.

Also, ya ever wonder what VIDAKILLZ is like in real life? Well to snag a little taste I recommend reading her newly released fan/artist interview! These types of interviews are exciting because the fans have control of the conversation. Have a question yourself? You ask and VIDAKILLZ answers.

#BREAKINGNEWS: You ask and Vida Killz (@VidaKillz) answers. Peep the new interview from Vida from her fans and... http://t.co/L4oUAK4HUv

Lastly, but surely not least, this week we were blessed with new visuals for 'Like Me' written by RICS RUMBLE featuring JASSON C. Produced by RUMAN and directed by the GOD himself VONPOEVII, the video is surely to excite the mind and please the eyes. Kill the lights, pull out the goods, and vibe out to the poetry.

UNTIL NEXT TIME YOUR FREAKS

Everyday Is History

It's FiascoTheGod and I am here to provide you with another contribution to the OGTWeekly. Everyday is history.

Over the past few days, there was more news than music, coming from the Organized Threat camp. Building anticipation can be important when releasing new music. Announcements were delivered by the likes of Razor, Papa J., Poetic Death, Vida Killz, Rics Rumble, and Rellim. Before that, lets take it back to the basics..

THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A. released a new sound entitled "Back To The Basics". He tagged "thought provoking" on his Soundcloud player, and indeed it is. With your idea of the word, basics, this sound will wrap you in a straitjacket and throw you in a time machine to bring you "Back To Basics". Whether that may be up in your elementary classroom, learning that 2+2 equals 4 and that you put "an" before a word that starts with a vowel, or from the first time you started to understand the standard skills required to play a certain sport, THA F.O.R.M.U.L.A. achieved his goal to bring it "Back To The Basics". Maybe for him, it's when he started learning how to make instrumentals. This beat is for sale and you can contact the producer at fequalsmc@gmail.com.

It looks like producer Ruman was the popular guy this past weekend. Both Papa J. and Razor tweeted sanguine remarks as they made it known that each of them went in on separate beats produced by Ruman. Papa J. tweeted, "@RUMANSAYS iii killed one of yo Beats on 5:55AM". Razor joyfully wrote, "Writing this new heat from my nigga @RUMANSAYS .....hahaha they not ready ;) #OGT".When the Razor joint will release is unknown, but it is known that Papa J.'s track will be on his upcoming mixtape "5: 55 AM".

If you are expecting new music from Vida Killz this year, you better absorb every lyric, sound, metaphor, and emotion in her latest project with JG, "XXIV". (You can read more about "XXIV", on the previous OGTWeekly). The Organized Threat poet will not be releasing any music this year but look for something in the summer of 2014. You can read her entire Facebook post which states what she will be working on for the remainder of this year, by clicking here. In the meantime, it looks like Vida Killz has found a way to interact with her listeners by putting together a 23 question interview. These questions will be formulated by her listeners and you can ask your question now by logging into Facebook and leaving a comment on her FB status by clicking here. If you have her on IG, you can ask a question there and I am sure she won't mind if you contact her via Twitter.

Rumor has it, that music listeners can suffer from lack of music video intake. Doctors call it, MusicVideonesia. Symptoms are, blurred vision and an itchy back. Thankfully, Poetic Death, Rics Rumble, and Devour, can provide a cure. Poetic Death made it known that he is exhausted after three days of shooting three music videos. He writes, "Three videos in three days, fuck I'm tired.". If you didn't know, Poetic Death is also a director who shoots a lot of videos for the members of the Organized Threat camp. One of the many questions that arises, is if one of them, is a music video for Devour. I recently had a private Twitter chat with producer Rellim who told me that Devour is shooting a music video for his track "Ain't A Fool", which is produced by Rellim. Rellim also replied to Poetic Death's tweet by asking, "your grindin bro! You shoot devours vid to?". Whether or not Devour's music video is a part of Poetic Death's three music videos in three days mission, still expect a music video from Devour. Finally, Rics Rumble is on his grind as well. He announced on Twitter that a music video for "Like Me", which looks like it is connected to Poetic Death's tweet, has been completed. Rics Rumble tweets, "Just wrapped a the video for this one #WorkEthic >>" and then provides a link to "Like Me" which also features Jasson C. Rics Rumble subsequently retweeted this tweet by Poetic Death, "Dope night with my niggas @RicsRumble @JassonC and @FijiFox, still forgot the group photo AGAIN haha. New video dropping soon."

And to wrap it up we have a random Organized Threat tweet provided by Gavlyn. She tweets, "Someone sent me an email saying "Dear Respected" that immediately pist me off for some reason". So in case you were planning on sending an email to your favorite MC, Gavlyn, don't insert "Dear Respected" in the beginning, middle, or at the end of that email. Gavlyn, you may have gotten "pist off" but at least you didn't get pissed on. *Cymbol Hit*.

There you have it. In case you were grinding out there like the artists mentioned above, and weren't able to keep up with Organized Threat this weekend, consider me, FiascoTheGod, your savior.

Hello, November!

Cue Bone Thugs-N-Harmony's "1st of tha Month." How are you all doing? Tiffology here, and I'm feeling great. I hope you had a fun and safe Halloween last night!

CRAYONBEATS: Before I dive into what's new with the camp, let me tell you about something cool. As I wrote about in my first post, I own the site CrayonBeats along with Tiffny (who alternates Fridays at OGTweekly with me). Anyway, on October 29th, we released our fourth magazine issue! It's dedicated to creative women in music, art, fashion, and life... you should check that out. So, yes, it features nothing but talented WOMEN... and let me make note that I featured GAVLYN and BONNIE BLUE in a 3-page article that I wrote called "Do The Ladies Run This Motha...?" I wrote about ladies in music that I feel people/our readers should be up on. You can get more information about who/what's featured in the issue over here, and pick it up in digital or print format.

BONNIE BLUE: Speaking of Bonnie Blue, she posted a new track on her Soundcloud yesterday, titled "They Say." Production and scratches by Spok Beats. Bonnie, MC Mega and Nat The Lioness each have a verse where they spit about their journey in music. On her Facebook, she spoke about how the track came together: "True story... Met an awesome couple last weekend who happen to both be super ill emcees/illustrators/innovators/all around badasses and good people. Invited them to hang out and we made a track together! Yesterday!" LISTEN + DOWNLOAD "They Say."

PAPA J: From his NO R3COLL3CTION album released in June, watch Papa J's new music video for the single "RiiiGHT MiiiND" produced by Joogy Jugg. Although it's not the whole song, it's still a fun little video with some humor in there, too--Poetic Death and Papa J try to get free gear, but get shut down. The video was filmed in the hip hop fashion shop RECON in Zurich, Switzerland, and features cameos from their friends Nizzy Royce, Recon / HunterKlan CEO Simon Graf, and Yanis Berdioui. WATCH HERE.

VIDA KILLZ & JG: It's always cool when members of Organized Threat combine their talents to form a new sound and group. For example, the Bushwall Junkies. Then, California's spoken word poet Vida Killz and New York rapper/producer JG joined forces to become Chateau Des Dieux. While they have worked together and have been harnessing their sound for several years, they released their official debut project yesterday. XXIV [24] finds Vida and JG spitting poetic lyrics over JG-produced beats. The production is crafted with soulful melodies, fragmented vocal samples, head-nodding drum loops, ethereal and distorted electronic vibes. Very relaxing music to listen to and take in. In terms of subject matter, it's soaked in strong imagery, they share honest and personal stories, and slip in thought-provoking lyrics. The 11-track album was well put together and you can hear the emotion and passion behind every song. I'm realy loving this project. STREAM + DOWNLOAD FOR FREE.

I think that's about it as far as new updates since Wednesday. Make sure you check all of those out. Hope you all have a great weekend! Until next time...
