Fine Art Friday: Grotesk

Grotesk is a graphic artist and Swiss import to NYC as of 1999. He has churned out much-loved graphic design and illustration inspired by old school rap albums and ABA jerseys. He has worked with many hip hop artists big and small and continues to perfect his style with each new design, whether on apparel or digital or on paper. You may be familiar with his work and not realize it, but if not, then check out his archive website or search his name on Google search while he rebuilds his site.

Planet Asia X Gensu Dean - "Faces On The Dollar"

Mello Music Group continues to put out quality releases with regularity and this new track by Planet Asia, produced by Gensu Dean entitled "Faces On The Dollar" is proof of that. Planet Asia has collaborated with folks worldwide and I'm glad to see him linking with producers for entire projects, like some of his other recent output. The upcoming album "Abrasions", a full length album produced entirely by Gensu Dean, is out February 26 on Mello Music Group. Here's hoping more more of the same to help shine a light on some underground legends.

Video: Gynch X Jake One - "Mister Rogers"

Seattle representer Grynch, who is also a graduate of the University of Wisconsin's First Wave Scholars program for the Hip Hop arts, recently dropped the official video for the track "Mister Rogers" from his album "Perspective". With Seattle's top notch producer Jake One, Grynch discusses life in the Northwest, good weather and appreciating music in his life. Great track to rock in the morning to get you started for the day!
