Hip-Hop, Videos | OnCue Is The New Meme King of Hip-Hop With “No Way” Video
Posted by Grubeats on January 29, 2015
A musicians presence behind a camera can often make or break their music. Brooklyn based MC, OnCue, has always taken pride in crafting unique, original, authentic music videos to complement his everlasting sound. From the stop-motion laced “Way Too Far” to Cuey Nuts and milk showers in “Cereal” to the hazy “New Religion” video featuring Just Blaze & cardboard Dorothy, OnCue always delivers something fresh and innovative.
In support of his debut album, Angry Young Man, Cuey released the official music video for his most recent single, “No Way” just yesterday. In true Cuey form, him and director Hunter Lyon (side-note: follow this kid, he’s super talented with the camera) cook up a video like none of us have ever seen before. Honestly, I’m still trying to my mind around the logistics that went into making this work. Superimposing himself on some of the internet/Reddit’s hottest stories – Bieber getting his paparazzi rage on, Zombie turtle lover kid, the creeper who interrupted a live newscast – & several more, Cue shows us why he’s not gonna stop ’til he gets it. Fortunately for us, someone over at Buzzfeed has already aggregated the memes used in this video into one post so you can relive them all over and over and over and over again. Be sure to show love to Cuey & Hunter for this work of art!

Hip-Hop, Videos | OnCue – This View From Here
Posted by Grubeats on July 9, 2014
Think this kid has a chip on his shoulder? That’s an understatement. Cuey wants to drop this album even more than you and I want to hear it. No doubt has it been a long road, but I can finally taste it. As you’ll see in his newest video, Cue is rapping with an edge. He’s hungry. He’s boiling over. He’s ready to prove the naysayers wrong and elevate himself as one of the elite. “This View From Here” is exactly what I’ve been waiting for. You can see the anticipation for this album burning through his eyes and ringing through his voice. With Just Blaze signed on as the executive producer for the album, I can guarantee this will be one of the highlights of 2014.
Angry Young Man, September 3rd. Mark your calendars.
Hip-Hop, Rap | OnCue – Leftovers 2
Posted by admin on November 29, 2013
What better suited title for the day after Thanksgiving than Leftovers 2? I’ll answer that for you: none. There are no better titles than Leftovers 2. To tide us over until his full length project, OnCue decided last minute to drop the sequel to his original Leftovers series.
The tape is full of the conviction that Cuey has become so well known for in addition to a few lighter-spirited tracks like “Nude”. Features included a few familiar names including Sonny Shotz, Ro Ransom, Skizzy Mars and The Kickdrums and the talented production team was headed by in-house favorite, CJ Luzi.
I’ll surely be bumping this project for the remainder of 2013 and I recommend you all hit the download and do the same. Toss OnCue a follow on Twitter if you’re feeling the tunes!

Hip-Hop, Rap | OnCue – Way Too Far
Posted by admin on October 12, 2013
With Angry Young Man in its imminence, OnCue continues to build the hype surrounding it with yet another single. “Way Too Far” is a ballad of Cuey’s endless work and the significant impacts that it’s been having on his life. The song certainly encapsulates the spirit of an angry young man, as each line is spit with an unmatched conviction and emotion.
OnCue has yet to give us a set release date for his forthcoming project, however, it was said to be released sometime this month. Whether that release date is abided by or we have to hold off a little longer, I’m sure I speak for many when I say that AYM will be worth the wait.
Enjoy the incredibly well produced “Way Too Far” and grab the free download courtesy of OnCue’s SoundCloud.

Hip-Hop | OnCue – Cereal (Prod. by CJ Luzi)
Posted by Grubeats on January 3, 2013
What’s up FNT family, it’s been too long since we last connected. Now that the holidays have passed and the frigid temperatures have forced me to post up on top of my heated mattress, it’s time to feed my blogetite. Knowing I had to come back with heat, I cordially present to you Cuey’s first release off his sixth coming mixtape, Angry Young Man. As expected, board work comes from the 22-year old Jersey native, CJ Luzi. Although this track may have felt like a long time coming, I can assume you “Cereal” was worth the wait. Cuey’s voice is ripe and his raps are as potent as ever. With releases of this caliber, it won’t be long before these two are graduating from “cereal for dinner”.
Hip-Hop, Videos | OnCue – New Religion [Music Video]

It’s refreshing knowing when OnCue is readying a new video release, you can always expect something that strays from the norm. Videos can at times be extremely repetitive, but when you have the ability to create an abstract video such as “New Religion”, you differentiate yourself from the rest of the league. Cuey stays high on his young-n-up-n-comin-sh*t by delivering a video like nothing I’ve ever seen before. ART. This is just another reason why Cuey is always so high on my totem pole of up and coming artists. Credit director Adam Ross with another job well done, along with producers Just Blaze and Party Supplies with a bangin’ instrumental.
