Strong Arm Steady featuring Phonte - "Best of Times" video

Jake and I have been plugging Strong Arm Steady on our radio show for an endless succession of months now, and if you're STILL not convinced these guys are the real deal, take a look/listen at this music video off their classic, seriously slept on album In Search of Stoney Jackson...

Guilty Simpson + Madlib = OJ Simpson

For those of you out there into that raw hip hop, be sure to mark the days off your calendar for May 18th, the release date for the much anticipated OJ Simpson collaboration album with Detroit MC Guilty Simpson and super producer Madlib. From what I've heard so far this album will be chock full of bangers. It just became available this week as an advanced digital release on the stones throw website, and if you're a true hip hop head you can opt to cop it ***HERE*** if you just can't wait for it any longer (I'm going to let my antipation build and wait to cop it on vinyl in May, but that's just me).

Anyway, here's a video clip of him performing the album's title track live with the Will Sessions Big Band. Raw stuff. Haters are throwing rocks at tanks.

"Manmercial"

This is not your ordinary commercial because most commercials that change setting are not made in one take.

And this is, you ask? Filmmaking is continually innovative.

and yes, the entirety of this hilarious video was made in one take.

From a bathroom to a boat to a horse. now isn't that something.

It took over 80 takes. .
