Freeway & Young Chris got bars, son!
The Hawthorne Headhunters, known seperately as Black Spade & Coultrain from their collective project, Myraid Of Now.
TO be honest, I like it…and the plain Black and White color scheme definitely works for my wardrobe…..I’m curious what they do roster wise…..
The collaborative album, Trophies, from Apollo Brown and O.C. is available now…..on Itunes, Bandcamp, and anywhere else you buy fine music……Very dope and fresh take on the Isaac Hayes sample….
“Just Walk” finds Apollo Brown flipping a legendary sample into a triumphant composition with potent horn stabs. OC matches the majesty of Apollo’s beat by waxing poetically about his “alpha male ego” and comparing his street respect to that of Nuyorican poet Miguel Piñero. Calm and mature yet rugged and live, “Just Walk” is exemplary of the kind of substance you can expect from Trophies.
Cool little video of Oscar Brown Jr.’s “But I Was Cool” from his debut album Sin & Soul & Then Some. A nice way to start out your day….
