Video: Fashawn “Our Way” (feat. Evidence)

Posted in Video with tags Blu, DJ Exile, Evidence, Fashawn, Hip-Hop, LAyover EP on Thursday, November 6, 2008 by Tim Althaus

It seems like just about everything I post these days has a mention of Evidence. In this case it’s no different, but this time he is featuring for another artist named Fashawn from the Cali area. I first heard this guy when Evidence put out his video for “The Far Left” (off the LAyover EP). This guy definitely can do his thing on the mic, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see him popping up in a lot more. He released a free mixtape called: One Shot Kill Mixtape (click the link for free download), and his debut album is going to be produced entirely by DJ Exile, who if you remember did the album Below The Heavens last year with Blu. Check this vid out and go check out Fashawn to, you should see a lot more of him sooner than later.

Vodpod videos no longer available.

Jake One: “Hurt U” (Featuring Pharoahe Monch & Kardinal Offishall)

Posted in Music News with tags Hip-Hop, Jake One, Pharoahe Monch, Rhymesayers Entertainment, White Van Music on Thursday, November 6, 2008 by Tim Althaus

I was really dissapointed when I initially heard that this track was going to be an iTunes bonus. I had gotten the deluxe (2 cd edition) of White Van Music (on Rhymesayers Entertainment) and listened to the shit out of it (I loved it). I then heard that there was a track floating around with Pharoahe Monch on it and I wanted to have it. Okayplayer made a post about it yesterday and I had to have a listen. Pharoahe and Kardinal Offishall pass this track like desert, taking a huge bite whenever it’s their turn to devour the mic. If you like vicious, fast paced rhymes then you will love this track. Also notice the guitar loop Jake has going on in the background, that shit’s sick…
