Nu Irth - "Paradigm" [prod. Hologram] (Video)


This shit is wild.

I can't think of many artists whose music I've been anticipating quite as much as Nu Irth, who began subtly dropping hints of something new as far back as last year. So, to say today's release is a long time coming would be no stretch.

Regardless, it's been well worth the wait.

The Nu Irth trio - consisting of Jaden Castro, Star BBY and Hologram - liberates our first taste of what's to come in 2019 with the release of "Paradigm", a wavy record that helps to set the foundation of who and what Nu Irth represents.  The eclectic track features illuminated verses from Castro and Star BBY, while Hologram provides the spaced-out instrumentation.

You'll be playing the joint back a couple times to catch all of the layered quips buried beneath both lyricist's otherworldly deliveries. There's a lot going on throughout "Paradigm", but it's all so lovely - truly an immaculate balance of substance and depth coupled with a euphoric sonic backdrop. In an age of copycats and trends, it's refreshing to see something so unapologetically unique.

The visual experience, filmed by Detelj and edited by Jazz Carter, is tripped out, to say the least. Nu Irth gets flashy, utilizing some slick edits to capture the essence of what the music is bringing to the table. The record itself and the video go hand-in-hand, both working to accentuate what the other offers.

Expect an album from Nu Irth sometime early in 2019.

Rudy - No Time

God willing, each and every person birthed into this world will grow up. Some of us may reach an old age, some of us may be called home earlier than others - but, in some form or fashion, we all will grow older.  It's a funny thing, the way our society perceives age. In some cultures, the elders are held to the highest esteem - for they are the ones with the knowledge and experience to hold true wisdom. While many in our society praise youth and the physical beauty associated with being young, it is only through the experience of living life that one learns about the world, and in turn, has the capability to learn about their own being. And still, we tend to look down upon those who have been blessed to experience a long, full life. Perhaps it's because so many "old" people seem to live a life of regret, looking back on their youth with a mind full of "what ifs" and "should haves". While young individuals are rushing to reach maturity,

Watch Now: Aaron Cohen & Eklips in Paris (Video)

While in Paris - which appears to be one of his homes away from home at this point - Aaron Cohen bumped into Eklips outside a train station. With cameras rolling, the renowned beatboxer proceeded to drop Dipset's " Oh Boy " instrumental as Cohen does what he does best, lacing the France-based musician's rendition of the track with characteristically self-confident quotables.  Check out the off the cuff collaboration below and be on the lookout for Cohen's upcoming RED NEW YORK project. 

Raz Simone - "Your Hands" [prod. Antwon Vinson] (Video)

Often times in life, the hardest lessons to learn are the ones that lead to the greatest amount of personal growth and expansion. And, of course, it's always best to learn first hand, through experience, rather than through second hand story telling. Let's be honest, someone can drop knowledge on you time and time again but we, as humans, have a tendency to ignore that wisdom unless the Universe hits us with some personal experience.  Regardless, on "Your Hands", Raz Simone takes it upon himself to share his experience with anyone willing to listen - not necessarily to benefit the listener, but to put into perspective his D.T.A. ( don't trust anyone)  mentality.  Shortly after the release of "Your Hands", Raz tweeted the following:  "I genuinely don't expect a thing from another person but betrayal. I still keep hope and love for everyone tho. More and more from afar." While this may come across as a negative, pessimis
