I caught this joint floating around the internet yesterday. You've probably checked it by now but if not, enjoy the dope track from Blu & Exile, with a promise of MORE new music on the way. Chea!
Check the fresh Kenneth Price directed vid for RapSody's "Honda Accord Music" remix featuring Skyzoo & Thee Tom Hardy. Also check out RapSody's new project Return of the B-Girl. Chea!
I caught this joint featuring Shad over on Shad's FB page this morning. Shad is a dope Canadian emcee who has been a favorite of mine for some time. However what really makes this video dope is Mike Tompkins. This is a really fresh a cappella cover of Rihanna's "Only Girl" track. Enjoy.
Our very good friend Mike Tompkins (Shad recorded The Old Prince at Mike's studio in 2007) has been killlllllling it with these videos lately. He asked Shad to join him on his latest.
