4 More Years: Congrats Obama Team!

I try not to mix too much politics on the sight, as it can be pretty divisive, but I am glad that people got out to vote in America and decided to trust Obama with the task at hand. I was raised in a red state and will never agree with the mind set of the right, but I respect their ability to vote for who they think is right (despite being hella wrong in this case). I am sure they are all doing the Footloose warehouse frustration dance right now (posted below via FotC) but giving up on the POTUS after 4 years, from letting Bush run wild for 8 years, seemed pretty anti-progress. Regardless of the future outcomes, I am glad to say I am standing on the side of history with all my fellow brown peoples (and everyone else).

Video: Rapsody - "The Drums" ft. Heather Victoria, The Soul Council

Rapsody is back with another gem (the track "The Drums") from her album The Idea of Beautiful. Good video for good music! Check it out above and look for more work from Rapsody, Heather Victoria and The Soul Council!

Video: Sean Price - "The Genesis of Omega"

From what I understand, this video was created by the Dallas Penn crew and dedicated as an unofficial music video for Sean Price's "The Genesis of Omega" track from the Mic Tyson album. It is a humorous approach to a short track that illustrates some of P's punchlines with quick glances of the GI Joe-ish figure in the video. Good for a laugh, but seriously support Sean Price and the DuckDown Records family.

Throwback: Biggie - "Sky's the Limit"

"...Keep on Pressin On"

After a week of stress and hurricane madness in NYC, which will last for a while, some of the lyrics from this song, and just watching the video in general, help the mind relax and think about better days ahead. 

The Joy of Painting with Sean Price

Sean Price // Sean Ross // Bob Price // Sean Mandela takes a humorous approach to painting in his "hood", while paying tribute to afro'd out cool daddy painter Bob Ross. Have some fun in a post-apocalyptic version of America lead by Sean P.

Fine Art Friday: Ronald Wimberly

I had a chance to meet with Ronald Wimberly at an off the wall film shoot, but I was looking at some of his work on his phone and saw an URB magazine cover with Jay-Z on it that I remembered and realized the breadth of his work. He combines Roy Lichtenstein-ish printer dots (comic book style) with Japanese style animation and Hip Hop sensibilities to make dynamic and visually interesting work.
