[youtube]mt_RwqdNTFg[/youtube] This is the video for Bisco Smith (aka Bisc1)’s second single off of his debut album The Broadcast.

I’ll let the marketers explain the video [...]

This song is pretty hilarious, it can be downloaded on the House of Bees Vol. 1 compilation. It’s an acappella trip through the history of Justin Timberlake’s missteps. As done only be B. Dolan of Strange Famous. [youtube]Nnk5EF3oGl0[/youtube]

Check out this video, my guys in Big Quarters jamming with Crescent Moon and Big Trouble (the band members from Heiruspecs).

P.O.S. is currently rocking his way across the country on Warped Tour, but that doesn’t stop Rhymesayers from releasing his latest video.

This was put up on Twitter by Brother Ali the other day, so I checked it out. I’m seriously moved by the type of reaction he seems to get in any setting. Look at the diversity of the crowd and how into the song they really are – Hip hop as an art form at [...]

I’m a little late on this one, the interview has been up for around 2 months now but I just found it the other day. Take a look at this video, it really puts you inside the head of the evolving artist that is Cage. “It’s just a record about life, things that people can [...]
