Jass Bianchi - The Sponsor "HER" Campaign

Talented and creative emcee Jass Bianchi is trying to release her next project soon but this time, she'd like your help. You can read a little about here here and after you visit the site where she explains more on this project. Check it.

SONY told her to quit college, and loose weight.
Sean Combs said she should calm down her lyrics...

In an industry heavily influenced by masculinity, Jass Bianchi steps up to the plate. Her Debut Album H.E.R. is in response to legendary Chicago based rapper Common's 1994 hit "I used to love H.E.R."

This album will showcase the dexterity, beauty, and point of view of women both universally and within the realm of the hip-hop industry.

Your donation will be used to provide the proper mixing & mastering, recording, and live instrumentation needed to make the vision possible.

Both men and women often complain about the false representation/selective representation of women in the hip-hop industry. Now is your chance to change that.

What I'm Watching: De La Soul's Plug 1 & Plug 2 present First Serve - "Must B The Music"

This new album seems like it's gonna be a step to the left from what I'm sued to from these dudes but I'm willing to give it a chance. I actually like this track which was produced by Chokalate & Khalid, less the chorus, but it's good nonetheless. Check out the video directed Matt Stawski by and let us know what you think.

First they brought you 'The Goon Time Mixtape' blasting from a late-night house party in a Parisian suburb.  Then we saw our heroes getting endless grief from Deen's overbearing mother in the Mrs. Whitter skit.  That was all just a taste of things to come from De La Soul's Plug 1 & Plug 2 present 'First Serve'; a dynamic hip-hop group, an album, a concept, the soundtrack to a movie that has yet to be made and a fable for our times.
 

'First Serve' is many things, but at its heart it is the story of two young boys from Queens, New York with big dreams and larger rhymes. Two friends, Deen Whitter (aka Plug 2 / Dave) and Jacob 'Pop Life' Barrow (aka Plug 1/ Pos), friends from seventh grade, are by their own admission, "different, but the differences seem to complement everything we do." Their name 'First Serve' comes from their motto, "First come, First Serve, get what you deserve."

NEW RELEASE: Chels "True School For The Moon Children"

When I heard Chels on her new single The Lesson featuring Ace Boogie, I knew she had grown musically since first checking out her music last year. The 20-year-old New Orleans female emcee starts the first quarter of the new year off strong with a new project True School For The Moon Children. After personally being endorsed by Erykah Badu and Amanda Seales (formely Diva), she's out to prove she's got the talent and bars to match. Definitely a project worth checking out. Enjoy.

What I'm Watching: Street Musician Bryson Andres in Downtown Spokane

I saw this on Tumblr, but it wasn't posted as a YouTube video, so I Google'd "Asian guy in downtown playing violin," and sure enough with a little bit of luck, I found what I was looking for. Suffice it to say, I was moved by Bryson Andres' talent. It's rare that such emotion is conveyed through secondary means. His street performance was flawless and I look forward to knowing more about him. Enjoy.
