BLAX Live.

We had been posting music from the New York by way of Milwaukee emcee BLAX (going by Adebisi at the time) before we linked up last year to present his project The Blaxploitation. Since then, we've put out three dope projects (including The Blaxploitation II and BLAX x LIFE x FILES) and formed a great working relationship. Today to mark one year since that partnership, BLAX releases some cool live performance video from his show at Mad Planet in Milwaukee last year. Also, if you haven't checked the new single Internet Sex, do that. And be on the look out for the director's cut video April 30th, filmed and edited by Darren Cole. In the meantime, enjoy the music. Chea!

What I'm Watching: Mike Jaggerr "Away"

I've heard the song. I watched the video. Then I started to write and I thought to myself, Mike Jaggerr did a great job describing it himself. Why reinvent the wheel, right? Right. Check the back story below and peep the vid up top. I dig it. Chea!

Last year, when I released my first mixtape, The Eleventh Hour, this song, "Away," was the first thing we sent out to blogs. I feel like once you hear "Away," you begin to learn my story and who I am as a person. So for Eleven30, I felt it was only right to officially start promoting it with the "Away" video, to continue that narrative.

Creating "Away" was an important milestone in my comfort level of expression in my art. Just by being able to say things on record that I'd never say in conversation. I like to think of it as one of my first creative doors to freedom that I walked through.

The video speaks on where I've been and where I want go; away from dysfunction and chaos, yet that's not always easy, right? Chike and the Creative Control team understood that and they crafted a vision that reflects that: the kid who wants to pack up and go, but his options seem limited. The thing is, you never know where your angels are and how they're guiding you along the way.
