Another reason it’s good that KanYe doesn’t use me to visualize his music. I would have just used clips of Snow Miser from the ‘Christmas Without Santa Claus’.
This video is beautifully dark and moody. My treatment for ‘Nightmare‘ may not be too far off.
I shit on Jeff and Eric as often as possible if for no other reason than it makes me feel better. Quietly, or maybe not so quietly they are carving a lane for themselves in this Hip-Hop shit.
I had to post this video because it was hell’a tight on some ‘Usual Suspects’ Kaiser Soze shit.
Hey, Mr. Cartel from jeff on Vimeo.
The final edit by Rik Cordero is finished and the video def has an ‘Around The Way Girl’ feel.
Shouts to Joell Ortiz, Novel, Spree Wilson and my homey JackzMusic starring as the young Joell.
The Joell Ortiz x Novel project titled ‘Defying The Predictable‘ has more anthemic, throwback good music. ‘Stand Up’ is a track that was tragically slept on.

I don’t go in for all the Air Jordan hype. That is to say that I don’t camp outside of Foot Locker for any of the special hypebeast quickstrike colorways of various retro Air Jordan releases. My complaint with the Air Jordan shoe is that it has become a staple for those sneaker fiends who lack the ability to put together an ensemble. White tees, Levis and the latest Jordans is their idea of going in.
I started to warm up to the Jordan Brand again when they first dropped the DubZero. I copped the OG DubZeros but then they went crazy with the releases so I backed off. I fux with the 6-Rings model also, slightly. I DO NOT fux with Fusions (Air Jordan x Air Force 1) whatsoever. The Jordan Brand shoe that has been a home run every time out is the Spiz’ike. The shoe is a hybrid of five different Air Jordan releases taking the flyest, iconic elements from each one.
The tongue from the VI’s, the lateral straps from the IVs, the embedded mesh upper from the Vs, the lacestays from the IIIs and the inner lining of the XXs. Plus, the colorways of the Spiz’ikes have been the freshest attraction for me. This latest pair which is part of the Mars Blackmon Fresh Since ’85 pack. I need these joints badly. Peep the little details of cement on the lateral straps. I fux with that lace toggle hardbody. As soon as I get my fux’n check from my side gig I am going in.
I gotta tell my dude Premium Pete to save a size 12 for the kid.
Trends in rap music come and go, but the underground remains faithful to the essence of Hip-Hop. #iHipHop
