[Video] YC the Cynic: "Molotovs at Poseidon"
Last month, we shared the tripped-out "God Complex" video by New York MC YC the Cynic. Today, we're sharing his latest video, "Molotovs at Poseidon." Directed by AaronIsNotCool, the entire video was shot in one 3-minute long take, which is very impressive for any video format, music or otherwise. This might not appeal to those who don't really care much about film or music videos, but being able to shoot an entire video without cuts or edits is remarkable.
"Molotovs at Poseidon" follows YC's flows as a masked man pulls a gun on him before his entourage pull theirs on him, matching YC's delivery about always staying ahead of the game, as well as a carried-over theme from "God Complex" about being a god. My favorite lines go, "Your damage is none. You just threw a molotov at Poseidon/Then felt the flood in your iris and cried for an act of kindness." YC is a lyricist through and through, dropping similes backpackers and old school hip hop heads would dig, while also appealing to current hip hop homies with his smooth flow.
I'm telling you, there's something about the New York rapper that I can't get enough of. His debut album, GNK, is coming soon, and I honestly can't wait to hear through everything YC has to offer.

[Video] PennyBirdRabbit: "Safer"
It's 90's inspired. It's eerie. It's PennyBirdRabbit. This LA based singer-songwriter, who you may remember from Skrillex's "All I Ask Of You," is back with her latest EP, Safer. This cartoon-esque, anime resembling, punk-like artist went the I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T route for her latest track - only showcasing further that she doesn't need any assistance with her overflowing creativity and impressive vocals. The visual, which features two thermal wearing, rhinestone studded, astronauts taking flight in an unironic, foiled, rabbit shaped spaceship can be seen below. Check out the latest video and EP both entitled Safer from artist PennyBirdRabbit and for more new and [free] music, head to pennybirdrabbit.com.

[Video] Brewski: "Cocky" (prod. by Young Chop)
Brewski is a little cocky... okay, maybe more than just a little. The Chicago rapper flexes his machismo over a Young Chop beat in this DGainz-inspired party video directed by Brianna Lashé. The champagne's running, the arms are flexing, and the girls are kissing; that's all you really need, right? What's up with that KG jersey, though?
