“Peace to my man’s deceased, I’m still standing.”

When Alexander Richter was in the Chi a couple weeks ago, we talked a lot about Hip Hop.  I was playing him some my favorite music from Chicago, and he was blessing me with songs/artists I’d never heard of from New York.  One artist that I really liked was Ka, an emcee from Brooklyn, who was the only feature on Roc Marciano’s acclaimed Marcberg LP. Ka’s got two albums as it currently stands, Iron Works and his latest, Grief Pedigree. The later contains only one guest feature, which comes from, wait for it… Roc Marciano.  The two have been working together more closely, and I’m told they have a joint project coming later this year or in 2013.

Below is Ka’s latest music video for “Vessel”, which comes off the Grief Pedigree album.  Watch it below, and look for more Ka on RH soon.
