What I'm Watching ... Apathy - "Stop What Ya Doin" ft. Celph Titled (Prod. by DJ Premier)

We posted the audio to this early last month and now Ap is back with the visuals to it. Apathy and Celph Titled, after being introduced by legendary DJ Premier, crash a birthday party in which they spike the juice, pop ballons and Ap gets his face painted, then head off on a boat with two other guests for a quick stop before they end up over a damn watching kids jump and flip into the water. This video is nuts but it fits the track. Haha. Check it.

What I'm Watching ... dUECE bUG - "Kick Rrawks"

Duece Bug's latest video has him going off!!! He gets a lot off his chest from the lack of leaders and abundance of followers in Hip-Hop, to swag infected rappers, gimmicks, ball suffocating jeans and a bunch of other topics. This track is off the upcoming EP "The Tex Wattsun Chronic-als" out Fall 2011.

What I'm Watching: the Cornel West theory "The Contradiction"

The Contradiction from Sarah Cannon on Vimeo.

I thought this track was dope the first time I heard it. I also think this video is dope. Shot by videographer Sarah Cannon, "The Contradiction" uses Washington, DC as the backdrop. With scenes from the city and from the city's rich history, the Cornel West theory aims to point out some of the contradictions of the Nation's Capital. Fresh concept. Great video. Enjoy.
