P.O.S. on Cinemax, Max Tour Stories

The people at Cinemax caught up with Stef at this year’s Soundset Festival in Shakopee and got some good footage. In the first part of the video Stef talks about the name “P.O.S.” and what it could be an acronym for, and how he got the name. He also talks about the roots of his influence and the nature of his beats. It’s great to know that guys like Stef take a lot of influence from their fans, because those are the best kinds of artists. In part 2 of the video P.O.S. discusses what he feels like when he’s on stage, what it was like growing up in Minneapolis without a major label and why he makes music that sounds different than your regular boom bap Hip-Hop.

This is the Day I’ve Been Waiting For…

Posted in Music News, Video with tags , , , , on Friday, July 17, 2009 by Tim Althaus

That’s right folks, it appears as though the sickest cat in the game just got sicker. I’ve been waiting to hear these words pretty much this whole year. As you can see above, Evidence just signed a multi-record deal with powerhouse label Rhymesayers Entertainment. You heard it, Cats & Dogs will be coming out on Rhymesayers Entertainment. I can’t tell you how truly happy I am to hear this news, I’ve been wondering if Rhymesayers was going to end up being a home for EV for awhile now. I almost feel as though this is a little bit surreal and I can’t figure out why. The one thing I can figure out, and do know, is that Evidence & Rhymesayers Entertainment are going to be taking over the game in 2010. Make sure you watch out for EV on tour with Brother Ali this fall.

310 to 612!
