Hip-Hop, Rap | Isaiah Rashad – Ronnie Drake (ft. SZA) [Video]

Posted by on November 24, 2013

The TDE label mates, Isaiah Rashad and SZA teamed up a few weeks back to form the soft-spoken and tender “Ronnie Blake”. The power-duo has recently returned to the scene with their music video accompaniment. The video for “Ronnie Drake” is nothing incredibly detailed or cinematic, however, it does show a side that holds true to who Isaiah Rashad is as a person and as an artist.

I’ve had this record on repeat for days now, and I’m happy to be able to share it with you all. Enjoy this rare hip-hop flavoring on FNT and stay tuned for Rashad’s upcoming mixtape Cilivia.

Hip-Hop, Rap | ScHoolBoy Q – Collard Greens (ft. Kendrick Lamar) [Video]

Posted by on August 7, 2013

I say with ease that ScHoolBoy Q is one of my favorite “new school” rappers, that is, if he’s even considered new school. Already with a full-length album under his belt the Compton native is one of the most watched artists of 2013. His sophomore LP Oxymoron will feature “Collard Greens” and is already one of the most anticipated releases of the year.

Calling in TDE associate, Kendrick Lamar, to drop a verse and Gwen Bunn/THC for the instrumental, Q pulled out all the stops. “Collard Greens” is definitely a “check me out now, h8rz” kind-of song and K.Dot along with ScHoolBoy both make sure to strut their stuff.

The video is eventful to say the least, and even features a few cameos from Macklemore. Check it out, enjoy, and stay on high-alert for Oxymoron coming soon.

Interviews | Music Talks Presents: Schoolboy Q – Sex, Drugs, and Hip-Hop

Music Talks is back with their newest interview, mining into the mind of West Coast rapper and TDE affiliate, Schoolboy Q.  Touching on everything from the birth of Q, to his favorite munchies, to his career goals. The Black Hippy is hopeful that his fans will stay as passionate about his music as he will for Mary Jane.  Judging by the peanut butter response from Q, it’s fair to say some of is die hard fans are hungry for more than just his music.  His response to “The person I look up to most is ____,” caught me off guard.  I expected the LA native to respond with a West Coast legend, but you can’t knock Diddy’s success as an artist and a businessman.

With Mac Miller, Avicii, and now Schoolboy Q in the books, prepare yourself for Baauer and Macklemore x Ryan Lewis coming in the next few weeks.
