Jason James & Rodney Hazard: "Fame Us"

http://rubyhornet.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/color.jpg

Jason James aka WEB teamed up with Rodney Hazard for a project entitled The Marvelous World Of Color. Due August 11th, this album's theme is circles around the media, and the vast affect it has on every aspect of life in our western society. The media can influence fast-thinking and bad decision making as seen with the Shirley Sherrod case in the news. James takes this element of society and spits to give the listener an inside-out look at the idea of celebrity and how the media affects that title.

"We keep it big Tom Hanks!!! We Keep it bad MJ!!"

Kid Sis is here with her new video for her song Big N Bad off her debut album Ultraviolet. With this being Rik's first Chi-town shoot, they got some great footage of Super Dawg and Markham Roller Rink, two Chicago staples. With cameos by A-trak, Curt of Flosstradamus, Willy Joy and yours truly (1st music video!), this video is jumpin. We shot our scene at Bar Deville in Wicker Park, which was an experience to say the least watching Rik and company do their thing. Shouts to Melissa for being so kind and caring at the shoot!

Eels: "Spectacular Girl" Video

Eels

Where to start with the Eels?  They are one of my favorite bands for their simple approach to song writing.  Mr. E does away with overly complex lyrics, and overdone instrumentation, preferring to express his feelings with words that get straight to the point such as "I like birds" and "it's a motherf**ker".  No matter how f**ked up things get, The Eels always make me feel like they could get worse, and I love them for it.  Their new album is at the top of my buy list, and here's the band's first video for "Spectacular Girl".  See it below.
