If you've paid a modicum of attention to things I do out here then you know that Abadawn is the homie and a frequent collaborator. He's a strange dude for sure, but in my world that's a commendation. One of the realest and most honest emcees in the town and probably in the whole damn game for that matter. Anyway he's always putting together new things and this joint he recorded in the old Big Bang studio and then brought downstairs to make a video in the absurd layout of Grant Michael's Industrial Antiques. Its....well its Abadawn, ya know?

[VIDEO] Sapient - Shotgun In My Spaceship
Northwest producer/emcee Sapient has announced his new album and today released the first video/single, "Shotgun In My Spaceship". First up over at Pigeons and Planes, and spreading around the internetz, this video is perhaps the sweetest, nerdiest love story ever created by an artist known for banger hip hop.
But this is Sapient's new direction - melodic, multi-textured indie-pop that echoes Brian Wilson and will find its place among other genre-mashers like Ratatat or Beck. The single is available for free with a Pre-Order via Bandcamp, or you can purchase it on iTunes as well.
Slump comes out February 19th 2013 from Camobear Records

VIDEO - Jake Kost "It's All Good" [Honest Hip Hop]
Jake Kost is back with another excellent video, just to remind us "It's All Good", over a classic funky beat that recalls the best of the golden age. Jake Kost has a flow that smoothes out multi-syllabic rhymes and bounces in the pocket. The video, by Martin VanLonden, seems like it just might be a comment on American race issues, but I'll let you decide on that one. CHECK IT OUT, and leave a comment for the kid on his youtube channel.

VIDEO: The Lytics "Stay Calm" [Honest Hip Hop]
Winnipeg Canada's The Lytics are about to release a new album on Camobear Records that, judging by the recent singles, promises to be a sweet pastiche of everything I used to like about radio music. In the 80s. They bridge elements of soul, new wave, and golden era hip hop...it almost sounds like what The Specials might have made if they grew up on rap instead of reggae. This video is an irreverent montage of what I imagine to be a great day in Winnipeg, by Canadian music video auteur Stuey Kubrick.
