Jobo - "Last Godz" (feat. RUDY)


There is a very legitimate aura of authenticity that encapsulates Jobo and it radiates through the music he releases. While he may have a tendency to troll with the best of them online, his energy is always real - the Bear God is never pulling punches or keeping it PC to please or comfort anyone. In today's musical climate, both locally and in the mainstream, this raw authenticity is experienced less and less frequently.

And that is why what Jobo brings to the table is important.

Despite being a fan of professional wrestling, Jobo does not grip tightly to a gimmick. He walks through life, and delivers his music, as he deems appropriate. What we get is the truest essence of who Jobo is and that becomes more apparent as he continues to grow into himself artistically.

"Last Godz" is presented in the same manner as "Warning Bite" - a visual offering a glimpse of what will live in full upon the release of Bear God EP II. Jobo provides just enough to get the viewer hooked and wanting more, while still ensuring his upcoming EP will feature unheard content that carries on the vibe cooked up with the condensed previews. By ending the video abruptly, we're left with a knowing that there is more to come. And when Jobo is ready to do it on his terms, BGEPII will be liberated.

The latest release features RUDY, who is a blessing on any track he touches. There always seems to be something a little more special when two friends link to create music, especially when they are both as talented as Jobo and RUDY are in their respective rights. "Last Godz" showcases a juxtaposition of creative abilities and styles, blending the energy of both artists together into a #toosweet final product.

"Last Godz" is blunt and abrasive, again highlighting Jobo's unique ability to attract listeners with an inviting arrogance. While many pseudo "woke" individuals are flexing on socials about eradicating their egos, Jobo is demonstrating how powerful the ego can be if one stays rooted in authenticity. 

Daps and pounds to Bklyn Lo for the visual experiencing, capturing the flick on a dark and cold night. With nothing but the natural lights of the city illuminating the shots, the vast shadows of the video dance beautifully with the vibe of "Last Godz".

Bear God EP II is on the way. Hit play on "Last Godz" below.

Raz Simone - "Clout" [prod. Anthony Danza] (Video)

Fresh off the heels of another trip around the sun, Raz Simone comes through with his first visuals of 2018. In typical Raz fashion, the Black Umbrella founder holds nothing back on "Clout", addressing a myriad of subject matter with a confidently calm yet simultaneously aggressive delivery. Simone has always been one of my favorite artists to cover, thanks in large part to the layered presentation of his content. With "Clout", an essay could be composed on both the track itself and the accompanying video - while both seem almost overly simple upon first glance/listen, the song and video cover a lot of ground over the course of five and a half minutes. The visuals are split between two backdrops - Raz being "studied" in a research facility and Raz rapping in the street. The vibe of the production on "Clout" syncs up perfectly with the dreary, simple visual of Simone in the rainy streets...appropriately carrying a black umbrella. It's...

Grieves - "Let It Through" (Video)

In September, Grieves liberated new music for the first time since releasing his  Running Wild album in 2017 and now the Rhymesayers Entertainment artist comes through with the official visual treatment for "Let It Through". The single denotes both the artistic range of Grieves and the personal growth and self-discovery the wordsmith has been experiencing over the course of his journey here in the physical. Packed with relaxed melodies and a calmly delivered labyrinth of wordplay, the sentimental "Let It Through" is presented with a composed, collected and self-aware delivery. Grieves is experiencing a state of acceptance, finding peace with what is rather than attempting to swim against the current of life.  Throughout the record, one gets a sense that Grieves is learning from - and growing through - the chaos that has encapsulated and shaped his life. It's vital to recognize the importance of documenting the destruction if one desires to showcase the ...

Tobe Nwigwe - "Ode To Fat" (feat. David Michael Wyatt) [prod. LaNell Grant] (Video)

Love, of course, is not an easy road to travel. But, when the love is real and when the love is divine, all the challenges, hardships and trials prove to be worth it. Real love - true love - always prevails. As the visual descends from the Heavens, Tobe Nwigwe begins the dulcet delivery of his prose. With a stoic demeanor, he stands with his Queen, as an enchanting dance installment takes place in the field upon which they stand. Nwigwe chronicles the journey that is his soul connection with Fat while the camera pans out. With "Ode To Fat", Tobe Nwigwe reveals the blessing from God that is the pregnancy of his wife. And this, he states, is "the most genuine form of happiness [he's] felt." From there, the latest #getTWISTEDsundays release is like an angelic embrace from the parents-to-be, the words of Nwigwe containing such an incomparable purity and bliss that it's near impossible not to catch goosebumps from this release. Saturated with artistic exp...
