[Video] Outasight: "It's Like That"
Here goes the new video to accompany Outasight's "It's Like That" which he dropped last month. Outasight is a dual threat artist, able to both rap and sing, and he melds the two into a style which is completely his own. "It's Like That" is a great example of his versatility, he holds the whole song down on his own handling both the verses and the chorus. While he hails from Yonkers, the east-coaster shot the video out in Los Angeles. Outasight is gearing up for the release of Figure 8, slated for this coming April, which "It's Like That" will not appear on. A very smooth track and a pleasant video compliment each other nicely, check out the video after the jump.
[Video] Rockie Fresh: Life On The Otherside - Episode 1
One of my favorite up and coming artists from Chicago, Rockie Fresh, has just dropped the first episode from his Life On The Otherside video series. In the debut we go along with the young MC as he makes his way out to Los Angeles for All-Star Weekend. Rockie traveled to Sunny CA to perform at the All-Star Weekend after party, sharing the stage with the likes Rick Ross. While on the trip he also managed to squeeze in some studio time with Casey Veggies, another young up-and-coming artist from LA. Other than that we visit In-N-Out for Rockie's first taste of the famous burger. Looks like a good time, stay tuned in for episode two where Rockie will rondevu with Fall Out Boy's Patrick Stump. Check out the first episode after the jump and if you haven’t downloaded Rockie’s The Otherside yet, do so now.
Lil B: "Base For Your Face" feat. Jean Grae and Phonte (Prod. 9th Wonder)
Wow this track is a first in many ways. Lil B has never been featured before on RH, and I can safely say that he has few fans here, but the XXL Freshman rolls through with what is a surprisingly dope track. "Base For Your Face" also marks the first collaboration between Phonte and 9th Wonder since they reconciled. The Based God brought together some true hip-hop talent and the end result is easily one of Lil B's best tracks. 9th utilizes the strings heavily for the beat as well as a dope Flava Flav sample, making the track smooth and relaxed. While I am sure your wondering if it was possible for Lil B to hold up with the industry heavy-weights, know that he does. Dropping two verses, both are delivered well and consist of more that shouting 'Ellen Degeneres'. Check the track out after the jump, Lil B actually deserves the download this time.
Street Etiquette: "Satorial Sounds"
Street Etiquette is doing something very unique out there in New York. The online style blog, owned by Joshua Kissi and Travis Gumbs, recently set out to create a short film about what an artist is. They did this all in an effort to promote the importance of art programs in school. Bringing together Jesse Boykins III, Mara Hruby, Joekenneth Museau, Joshua Bennett, Theo Martins, Melo-X, and Rinaldy Alvarez for a two day studio session; the result is a beautiful piece of art. The song is part spoken work, part rap, and part singing, highlighting each of the artists individual talent. The film was directed by Jerrett Woo. Check out the video after the jump as well as the song.
This project is very similar to RH's upcoming Closed Sessions:ATX project, which will drop on March, 15th. Both sport true artistry and some long studio sessions, as well as accompanying documentaries. Make sure to check out the album when it releases next week.
Nike x French Federation Football Official Away Jersey
Last year the French Football Federation struggled to win a berth in the World Cup, and after doing so did little damage, sputtering out in the qualifying rounds. There was a lack of unity noticeable to the whole world, which adversely affected the athletes performance. Well here is the latest offering from Nike and the French Football Federation. The redesigned away jersey is the embodiment of the new team motto, "Nos Differences Nous Unissent” or “United By Our Differences”. They sport a series of images created by Karl Lagerfeld of the team captain, Alou Diarra. The navy stripes sure look good, but the jury is still out on the French National team. Check out their debut on Saturday, March 26th, at Nike Stadium Paris, and check out the preview video after the jump
