RoQy TyRaiD - "Preach!"

RoQ'y must not wanted to go out quietly in 2011 as he drops his last trouble making banger. Check out "Preach" as he lyrical rips into a few topics some of us face in our lives. This dude has a knack for this stuff. Dopeness.

"Preach!" , the latest RoQ'y / TyRaiD venture is perhaps the most controversial song as of yet. Viciously cutting through the stellar, gritty production of Felony Muzik with the sharpest of wit, lyricism, and execution.. RoQ'y , in "TyRaiD" form..embodies the spirit of the iconoclast in order to restore the system of Checks and Balances. From the questioning of mainstreamed blind faith to the martyring of athletic icons, THIS IS "PREACH!" and THE CULTRUE IS BACK!!!! Project: Ark of Arts ..2012

J57: Stand Out

Photo by Adri Whitehead

Shot and cut by Jav Martinez for theREELness, Brooklyn emcee/producer J57 of the Brown Bag AllStars and TMB favorite talks about his beatmaking process. Definitely a cool behind the scenes look at one of the talented voices/sounds behind BBAS and others. But he doesn't do all the work by himself, so look out for J57's co-producer Suri57 with the cameo. He's got a new project on the way. In the meantime, enjoy this piece on J57.
