A new video from Shabazz Palaces from their “Black Up” album:
“Shabazz Palaces are a Seattle-based hip-hop collective, led by Ishmael Butler aka ‘Palaceer Lazaro’ (once ‘Butterfly’ of Grammy award winning jazz-rap group Digable Planets) and multi-instrumentalist Tendai Maraire, son of Mbira master Dumisani Maraire. The group anonymously self-released two EPs, Eagles Soar, Oil Flows and The Seven New (often referred to simply as Shabazz Palaces and Of Light) in 2009 before becoming the first hip-hop act to be signed to the Sub Pop label and releasing their debut full-length album, Black Up, in 2011.” (via)

I´m still having A$APs feature with ScHoolboy Q on heavy rotation, but it is good to see a new and official video! “Wassup” is one of my favourite songs from the free Download Mixtape “LiveLoveASAP”! If you love the Beat by Clams Casino, search for his Instrumental Mixtape! It´s good!
“Harlem rap sensation A.$.A.P Rocky teamed up with VICE to create a video inspired by Scarface, Belly, Enter The Dragon, The Warriors and, Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory.
The result is a video that follows A.$.A.P Rocky through a dreamy fantasy world filled with 40s, Ferari’s, homies and hoards of cash.”

I love the sample in the chorus and A$APs part! “Hands On The Wheel” is on ScHoolboy Q´s second album “Habits & Contradictions”.

“HipHop is dead, Zombies for pres.”

I´m really looking forward to a new release of Talib Kweli and Mos Def aka Black Star!
The two new songs “You Already Knew” and “Little Brother” they performed at Jimmy Fallon´s Late Night Show sound great! Hopefully the album “Aretha Franklin” drops soon!
