Cuey? Action Bronson? No no, that is OnCue’s director who has done all of his videos in the past. Shifting gears on Cuey’s latest video for “Kinda Late”, off Can’t Wait, Adam plays the role of Cuey as Just Blaze makes his directorial debut, leaving Cuey with no choice other than filling the role of the pizza boy. Although the original 88-Keys produced track featured Mike Posner, the video does not, but that’s not to say it is at all a disappointment. One of the more strangely creative visual works I’ve seen in a while from and up and comer, and I have to give Just Bliggity-Blaze credit for such an peculiar, but entertaining show.

Hip-Hop | OnCue-New Religion
Posted by ATexas on March 12, 2012
Party anthem raps are like, kind of catchy and hot right now. OnCue burst onto the scene in 2011 and he’s continuing right into 2012 with this high energy spit. The beat is, listenable nothing to write home about, but if you listen to the lyrics the kid is pretty f-ing witty. YOLO themed raps aren’t going anywhere apparently.

Electro, Hip-Hop | OnCue – Feel Tall (The Soundmen Remix)
Posted by Grubeats on March 7, 2012
Let me start off by saying “Feel Tall” was one of my favorite songs of 2011. Cuey reached a whole new level when he released the song along with the stop motion video to correspond. With that being said, I was somewhat skeptic when I saw the track had been remixed. Any and all doubts quickly evaporated a mere 11 seconds into the song. The highly talented Seattle production duo, The Soundmen, turn the (already) crack track into a audio fiend’s thanksgiving feast. Keeping the important elements of the original song intact, they add enough original production and remix the hook to create a perfectly balanced mix.
Props to The Soundmen, I wish more producers would rework indie hip-hop like this!
Hip-Hop | OnCue – Rich Kid (Prod. Brenton Duvall & CJ Luzi)

Cuey just released his second song of the week, Rich Kid. With the help of Brenton Devuall and CJ Luzi this track is hot. Here’s what Brenton had to say about the track:
“I sent this shit to OnCue about two months ago. When we were first working with it, it sounded super swaggy. Some Houston x Brooklyn shit. I don’t know what it was really, but I really fucked with the feel of the track. I was sampling this, to begin with. Anyway, what started out as a quick, fun track eventually evolved into something a whole lot better. Once CJ got his hands on the beat, it really got taken to the next level. This is definitely the best shit I’ve ever been a part of and is what I consider to be part of the beginning of a completely new path for OnCue. I 100% believe that he is going to do some really important things in music. Not rap music, but all music. He’s definitely one of the smartest and most creative rappers I’ve ever seen let alone met. I’ve been telling everyone not to sleep on him but I think I’m done doing that. At this point, if you aren’t giving Cue a listen, it’s only a problem for you. I don’t know how much good shit I can say about him, and at this point I’m rambling, so fuck it. Enjoy Rich Kid.”

OnCue is back with his first release since he dropped Cant Wait. This one is off Mick Boogies upcoming project, Sounds From The Front Row, hence the name. Cuey kills the hook and verse as usual.
Hip-Hop, Videos | Voli, Brenton Duvall, Chris Webby

Voli is on fire. Dropping this brand new track entitled ” Blood, Sweat, & Tears”, there’s no word where it will find a home, but one thing is for sure, it’s a gem. Fellow Dreamville artist, Elite, proved to he’s one of the hardest working individuals in the game and although it should not come as a surprise, Voli maintains a similar work ethic and skill level. He himself dropped a mixtape just over three months ago, leaving no time for a vacation. Self produced, this track is a x-ray into Voli’s life. I certainly can taste the blood sweat and tears he leaves in the booth on this track. The video is nothing like I’ve seen before. Two thumbs up for director Patrick Florescio.

When Brenton Duval is with us, he’s one of the best at what he does. Unfortunately, we have not seen much of him over the past several months. The game needs more original production remixes of up and coming artists work. Here Brenton takes Cuey & CJ Luzi’s title track off one of the best mixtapes of the year (Download Here) and slows it down without compromising the quality. A slower beat with a heavy hit from the bass really fits the song well and helps emphasizes the progression of Cuey’s career and how it is finally coming to fruition. Cuey for breakout artist of 2012? Shout out to our friends at itsthebino for the premier.

Yes it’s only been a couple weeks since Chris Webby released his debut EP, which premiered on iTunes and quickly climbed up to the #1 spot on the hip-hop charts. Deeply distressed over a recent passing of a close friend, Webby found himself back in the studio sending his love through his words. Produced by his tour DJ, DJ Semi, the track samples “The Kid’s Aren’t Alright” by the Offspring. Unfortunately, many of us can relate to this track.
