In The Company Of Greatness

Photographer Zach Wolfe recently spent some time with Big Boi before a solo show in the ATL. The edit of this video is fantastic, and a lot of people seriously think that virals are easy. Pick up a Flip camera, roll on road, capture whoever it is you're doing promo for and away you go. It doesn't work like that, Zach spent a lot of time on this and it shows.

DJ Smutlee - Kiss 100 Mix

DJ Smutlee put together a heavy 20 minute mix for Sinden's Kiss 100 show this Thursday. Smutlee comes correct as usual, joining the dots between Dancehall, Funky and the like. This is the sort of set I want to go and rave to, he is truly becoming the go-to DJ in London for this sort of thing. Make sure you keep your eyes peeled for Smutlee on lineups this Summer. DOWNLOAD

UNITY

“We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men; and among those fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects.” - Herman Melville

I Like Novelty Dance Rap

GS Boyz- 'Booty Due'


GS Boyz - 'Stanky Legg'

Grip Plyaz - 'Fuck That Hipster Shit'

When I was in Atlanta, I caught up with Grip at a Hollyweird show, he's apart of a really dope collective, with the hub of their activity surrounding a tattoo shop. Since the rise of the boutique rapper, those on the fringes of the Status Quo, these creative art hustlers have now become lumped together under an umbrella of wasteness. THIS IS GRIP'S RESPONSE. make sure you download it and get to know.

Chipmunk - 'Diamond Rings'

I heard this for the first time on Semtex's show last week, when Chipmunk was a guest. It surprised me, especially after 'Chip Diddy Chip'. He's come along way since Wiley first introduced him to the masses on Westwood about two years ago:

Kid Cudi - 'Heaven At Night'
