OnCue - "Business Boomin" [prod. Turbz] (Video)


When you've worked as hard and made as many sacrifices as OnCue has over the course of his decade-plus of being in the public spotlight, it's healthy to take a moment to celebrate your successes. And that's exactly what Cuey does throughout "Business Boomin", the celebratory, flex-heavy anthem that will find life on his upcoming I Hate Me Too album.

Despite the boastful gloating and jubilant nature of the new video, fans and critics alike have little choice but to recognize the well-earned self-praise littered throughout "Business Boomin". Backed by juxtaposingly light production from Turbz, OnCue rips the record apart with a fierce, indignant delivery that radiates with a sense of self-love and confidence.

With business finally boomin', OnCue is feeling himself, and rightfully so. He's survived and thrived through all the lows in order to get to this point in his life and career. Fortunately for his fans, with a new record on the way, OnCue is showing no signs of complacency. He's happy with where things are at but, even if the view from here looks nice, Cuey's stock is only going up.

"Business Boomin" is available now on all major streaming platforms.

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 - "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

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,
