Here’s a thought. Imagine the possibilities, if every multi-millionaire hip hop artist put 1 million…ok maybe thats far fetched. Say each one put 500K towards the development of a resource center such as this, in the state that they are from or currently reside. Besides being under the watchful eye of the government, said research centers could possibly alter the landscape of our children’s futures. Say what you want to about Skateboard P, but after this no one will ever say he never gave back to the community. [Read more...]

Goldi Gold: I Work After Work (introspective)
We saved this video for last drop of the weekend. This is a video introspective travel into the elements of New Jersey born Atlanta artist Goldi Gold. It’s rare that visual artists produce calling cards like this. The reason being, alot of them are often paranoid about being seen action or having their secret squirrel techniques exposed. A true zen master of this craft has no such fears, and is more than happy to let the world see how gets down. All we have to say is .. it’s this type of passion for creativity that make people wonder whether artists sleep or not, forgetting (some not knowing) that sleep is the cousin of death.
The audio backdrop provided by FANSTA “Lex Boogie” from the Bronx. Directed by C.Flux.Sing and Goldi Gold. Shot and edited by C.Flux.Sing.
