Stanza – Broadcast From Georgia (VIDEO)

Great video from one Atlanta’s most talented emcees….. Stanza! This quality video was directed by the homie Will Feagins of the High Impact Designs Company. The song is from Stanza’s critically acclaimed street album/mixtape ‘Searching For Bobby Fischer’ that dropped on DJBooth.net, Okayplayer & many other popular blogs last year. 2010 was a great year for Stanza as an artist after dropping a few successful mixtape projects & even performed well on BET’s 106 & Park.

Stahhr – Still Dope (Video)

It’s only right that with my new blog I put up one of the first videos I directed. I’m proud to have worked with one of the illest emcees in the game…. ‘STAHHR’. Anyone who knows Stahhr knows she’s a take no sh*t type of female but she’s still a woman who is both sisterly & motherly. I wanted the video to show how much support she has from many people in various ways & also have shots that places her in her natural environments. Stahhr does plenty of community service like going in to the prison systems & helping in the community. She supports black owned & community funded businesses like the beauty salon we filmed at & the supermarket Sevananda located in little 5 points Atlanta. She’s tough, connected, talented, & also motherly. I wanted the video to convey all these things in a short amount of time. I remember listening to DJ Premier on Sirius XM playing her music & giving her the cosign, but he didn’t quite know her name. If he eventually catches the video hopefully he’ll have a better idea. Stahhr stopped by my radio show before the year was out & let me debut a few joints that had the listeners calling in like crazy about them. The joints she played were produced by a french producer by the name of Astronote & the production fit her voice perfectly. Working on new music, performing overseas…….yeah I’d say there’s more big things to come from Stahhr in the future because she’s ‘STILL DOPE’!

Theophilus London – Flying Overseas feat. Devonte Hines & Solange Knowles (VIDEO)


THEOPHILUS LONDON – FLYING OVERSEAS FEAT. DEVONTE HINES & SOLANGE KNOWLES
One of my favorite songs that dropped in 2010. Great songs like this shouldn’t be overlooked. Makes you want to take a trip to Brasil or somethin’……

Murs & 9th Wonder – I Used To Love Her Again (VIDEO)


Some new visuals from Murs & 9th Wonder’s album ‘Fornever’ that dropped last year. The track is a remake of Common’s ‘I Used To Love Her’ classic joint. Murs & 9th Wonder’s ‘Fornever’ album was also one of DJ Premier’s Top 25 albums of 2010.

Another one of DC’s finest hip hop groups, Gods’illa, drops a dope video from their independent album Gods’illa: The Album that was released back in March 2010. Featuring cameo’s from Diamond District‘s ‘yU’ & our homie ‘Joe D’ who also rhymes on the track. The DMV has been getting their bars up & getting more shine in the last few years.

Killer Mike feat. T.I. – Ready, Set, Go (VIDEO)

I always felt like if Killer Mike gets the right type of production for his voice & style he could continuously win big. There’s been several songs I’ve heard him on that I thought were perfect examples like Juggernaut, City Of Dope, Belly Of The Beast, & several others. This track Ready, Set, Go with T.I. is no exception. Maybe Mike Bigga will make a few adjustments in his production style that Killer Mike may have overlooked in the past because this sh*t right here is a Certified Banger! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Thee Tom Hardy – Off The Radar feat. Euro (VIDEO)


I believe Thee Tom Hardy is one of 9th Wonder’s greatest finds in terms of talent. The North Carolina native dropped a very good mixtape called ‘The Secret Of The Green Magic’ with the assistance of DJ Green Lantern & it was one of my favorites of 2010. Thee Tom Hardy maybe be rather unassuming in appearance, but his witty lyricism & choice production makes him stand out amongst many of the freshmen in the game. Check out his EPK & some of the vids he dropped after the jump.

Talib Kweli & Hi-Tek (Reflection Eternal) – In The Red (VIDEO)


Talib Kweli & Hi-Tek are Back Again with some new visuals from the ‘Revolutions Per Minute’ album. Depending on who you talk to is RPM was one of the best hip hop albums in this world that was released in 2010.

Kendrick Lamar – Live Again feat. Curtains & Schoolboy Q (VIDEO)


Kendrick Lamar’s star continues to rise. This is a standout track & video featuring Curtains & SchoolBoy Q. According to the credits near the end of the video, the song should appear on SchoolBoy Q’s upcoming mixtape/street album due 1/11/11

Kanye West – Devil In A New Dress (FAN VIDEO)

Many of these unofficial videos you find on on the web are even better than some that the artists themselves have come up with. Kanye’s never dropped a video for this standout song from his album MBDTF, but this unofficial one that dropped on the web is good enough. Good job Yonie Ethiopian Love

Chace Infinite – It’s Chace (VIDEO)

One half of the LA based duo ‘Self Scientific’, Chace Infinite drops some RBG style seasoning on this joint called ‘It’s Chace’.

Kendrick Lamar – Growing Apart feat. Jhene Aiko (Unofficial Video)


This is a very creative video from one of my favorite Kendrick Lamar tracks proving once again that often times the fans can put together a solid video for an artists work if given the opportunity.

Jim Jones – Blow Your Smoke feat. Rell (VIDEO)


DOWNLOAD: JIM JONES feat. RELL – BLOW YOUR SMOKE
Jim Jones is one of those types of artists that aren’t necessarily the most lyrical, but I’ve been digging alot of joints he’s dropped over the years. This new joint ‘Blow Your Smoke’ with Rell is a feel good joint just before his new album ‘CAPO’ drops in February. Looks like he’s not gonna wait until Summertime to get this album poppin’. So for now….Blow Your Smoke

Homeboy Sandman – Strange Planet (VIDEO)


Homeboy Sandman is a truly gifted hip hop artist from his live performances, his recorded projects, to his video concepts, and on down to his artistic integrity. He’s such a true performer that I’m not surprised to hear he’s also branching out into acting with a few upcoming roles in some serious projects. I don’t think there’s been a rap artist in hip hop that’s as artistically capable since Mos Def. Check out the latest video ‘Strange Planet’ from his 2010 album ‘The Good Sun’.
