Timeless Truth - Out Of The Loop (Video)

TT

The RL Polo enthusiasts Timeless Truth of Corona, Queens drop the official video for the track "Out Of The Loop" which originally surfaced a few months back on their "Dominican Diner" EP. Check the video below as well as a short interview they did for Stashed.


Sean Price in Manchester

Sean P

More Bounce have done it again. This time Sean Price will be on his way to The Roadhouse in Manchester in October. Nothing more to say other than BE THERE. Details on the flyer below and event page here. P!

A couple of choice videos follow.







Camp Lo - X Seminar (Video)

Lo

Camp Lo return with the new video for "X Seminar" which is produced by Ski Beatz from the upcoming collaborative album between the producer and group. Look for that on Nature Sounds soon. In the meantime, check the video below.

(I had to add a picture of myself and friend Phil when we met them a year or so ago too.)

The Catch Up: Ugly Heroes / Pyramid Vritra / Your Old Droog (Video)


Pyramid


Just in case you missed them, here are a few videos that caught my attention over the last couple of weeks and failed to get put up on here.

First up is Stones Throw emcee/producer Pyramid Vritra with the track "224" featuring Huey Bliss. This is taken from his "Palace" EP which is only £2.49 on iTunes. Worth a little of your money.



Ugly Heroes

Next, Ugly Heroes dropped another video from their self titled EP which was released a week back. "Michael, Scottie & Horace" sees Verbal Kent and Red Pill doing what they do best over Apollo Brown's banging production with an M.O.P. sample on the chorus for good measure.



Your Old Droog

And finally, putting all doubts to rest, we actually SEE Your Old Droog as he features on the first episode of "Just Rhymin With Skizz". A few people may be disappointed that it isn't Nas, especially if they bought a ticket for his debut performance at Webster Hall in NY next week. I think he's a promising artist and being compared to Nasir Jones can only be a good thing.

Statik Selektah - Carry On feat. Joey Bada$$ and Freddie Gibbs (Video)

Carry On

Statik Selektah lets go of the video for his single "Carry On" featuring Joey Bada$$ and Freddie Gibbs. The track features on the new album "What Goes Around" which I expect will be another excellent addition to Statik's catalogue.

Incidentally, both Joey and Freddie will be appearing separately in Manchester over the coming months. Check SeeTickets for more info.

Magnum Opus: The Making of Mike Jones' Still Tippin' with Slim Thug & Paul Wall (Video)


Mike Jones

Almost a decade after the initial release, Complex take a look at the making of the seminal Texan record "Still Tippin'" by Mike Jones, Slim Thug and Paul Wall.

We hear from all involved in the record including the producer Silah who made the classic beat, the co-founder of Swishahouse Records Michael "5000" Watts as well as other Houston representatives. 

I wasn't aware that there was an original version of this without Mike Jones on it or the subsequent rift it left between Paul Wall and Chamillionaire. A great watch.

Check the doc below and also the video for the song by Dr. Teeth after that.

Action Bronson - Easy Rider (Video)


Bronson

As with anything put out by Action Bronson, I thought it mandatory to add his new video for "Easy Rider". Premiered earlier today via Noisey, this serves as the first single from Bam Bam's upcoming album "Mr. Wonderful" due in the last quarter.

"Easy Rider" is already available on iTunes.

Joey Bada$$ - Big Dusty (Video)

Big Dusty

Joey Bada$$ drops off the first video from his upcoming debut album "B4DA$$" with the single "Big Dusty". Fellow Pro Era crew Kirk Knight supplies production. The fact this kid continues to deliver heat is undeniable. That goes for the rest of Pro Era too.

Check the video below and cop the single on iTunes. We can expect the album around Autumn.

Cormega - Industry (Video), This Is 50 Interview, Sway Interview & Industry (Juice Crew Remix)(Audio)

Cormega

After hearing about the upcoming album from Cormega at his show in Manchester in late 2012, it was definitely the news everyone that was there wanted to hear. The fact it was to be produced entirely by his co-headliner that night, Large Professor, was just the icing on the cake.

Last week "Mega Philosophy" finally arrived and it doesn't disappoint.

Mega has been busy promoting the album with appearances on various radio shows and dropped a video for the first single "Industry". Today, Respect premiered a Juice Crew remix featuring verses from Masta Ace, Craig G and Kool G Rap!

Below I've included the video for "Industry", video interviews with Sway Calloway and Young Jack Thriller for ThisIs50 and the audio for the "Industry (Juice Crew Remix)". Enjoy and if you haven't already got the album, you know what to do. It's on iTunes for a start.
