What I'm Watching: Adebisi "F-ck The Dollar"



The homie Adebisi is like family. I've been handling a bit of his digital game and TMB just co-sponsored his latest mixtape The Blaxploitation, which you should DEFINITELY have in your life right now. Ha!

Anyway, Adebisi linked up with SigNif (yes, the NYC by way of Milwaukee emcee) and shot a video last week with Sig getting her John Singleton on by directing, shooting and editing the visuals for "Fuck the Dollar." Put together in just 24 hours, the video is for one of my favorite tracks on The Blaxploitation. The homie is definitely very talented. Look out for more music coming soon. In the meantime, enjoy. Chea!

Adebisi has also been shooting a series of video blogs. You can check those out at www.youtube.com/theblaxlifetv

Check It: Ritchcraft x Intalek x Geeter


That boy Ritchcraft is talented. After featuring his 30 in 30 beat series, Ritchcraft is back with music from two dope emcees that he's currently working on projects with.

You might recall the Intalek and Ritchcraft project Lives and Vibes. Well, the duo are currently cooking up an EP as a follow up. I'm definitely looking forward to that.

On the other side is the newcomer Geeter, whose "Do It Now" was featured on last week's ep of The Mad Bloggers Show. The dude is dope and he and Ritchcraft are working on a project consisting of 5-6 tracks dropping at some point in May.

Both dope cuts with Ritchcraft on the production. Enjoy and look out for those projects dropping soon. Chea!

What I'm Watching ... Has-Lo "Untitled #1 (Hold On)"


Deep, personal lyrics on "Untitled #1" from Has-Lo on this video to compliment it. Music can be therapy and few are talented enough to come through on a track this good while expressing emotions this close to home. Check out the video then definitely get the album. Quality music.

Untitled #1 (Hold On), was directed by Antonio Battle who also came up with the visual concepts. The song is one of the most autobiographical on the entire album. With the passing of Has-Lo's Grandmother the video's cemetery scene was meant to match the track's lyrival content and emotive weight.

TMB's Throwback Video of the Day ... Busta Rhymes - "Woo Hah!! Got You All In Check"


Y'all... if you don't love this man, I can't have respect for you. Ha! In the spirit of me trying to learn Busta's verse in "Look At Me Now," which I've almost completely mastered, by the way, I wanted to pay homage to the one of the King's of Hip-Hop. Pre-haircut, *jumps up in the air* "WOO HAH!! Got You All In Check," off of 1996 solo debut album, The Coming.

P.S. 1996 was an excellent year for music. Enjoy.

L.A. “To Fear” feat Melodi J.


Every now and again I get a dope track early and as soon as I hit play I want to share it with the world. But I have to hold back. I've had this cut, as well as a few others from Brooklyn emcee L.A.'s upcoming project The LA Riots, for a minute. I'm honored to be in L.A.'s circle of folks she trusts to hear the music early. I'm hyped that I'm finally able to share this jawn with you.

Following up her successful debut The Presentation, L.A. is in full prep mode for the Hippie Sabotage produced project The LA Riots. Based on a few of the cuts that I've heard, this project is gonna be ridiculous. Look for the drop at some point in May. In the meantime enjoy "To Fear' featuring Melodi J. Chea!

100 Grand "Dont Say Nothing"


He showed up rocking a hoodie, denim jacket and his Beats by Dre headphones. Jessica asked, "are you here for the showcase?" He gave a nod. But 100 Grand was there for more than watching the acts, he wanted to participate in the open mic we had scheduled for the evening. He had seen the info via a tweet and was the first to arrive to ensure his spot on the list.

Once he stepped on the mic, he said his name enough times that you would remember who he was long after his one track. The next day we exchanged a few emails and it dawned on me that back in February I peeped his video for "Carrie". I thought the dude was fresh.

The Queens rapper definitely has a dope sound and so on a late pass I'm sharing some of his music with you. Check out "Dont Say Nothing" plus the "Carrie" video. Who knows, you might see him at an upcoming Independent's Day Showcase rocking a full set. Chea!
