Video:Lxe For the UnCool “Flowers”

Over a broken loop, Lxe For the Uncool tells a child that Allah lives in everything including the Flowers.
The Columbus emcee basically raps about believing in one God and then a Malcolm X speech plays.
The visual is shots of various people in Columbus, Ohio.
Flowers is off of Lxe’s upcoming TH? M?L?OLM LITTL? APP?R?TUS project.
This video premiered on Curated.com
And was directed by Arris Productions (Dir: David Damen, Prod: Stan Moore & Tony Bumgarner, Dir of Photography & Editor : Chris Cloud).

MP3: Rashad “Jam”

MP3: Rashad: JAM (That’s My Sh-t!) 1

Thats my ish….Rashad, the producer/rapper from the Northside of Columbus, gives you an ode to his favorite music. Perfect song to put on your IPOD as you walk around on this glorious day.

Rashad has laced Lefortheuncool and Stalley this year.
So I’m really looking forward to see what he does with own album, Museum.

MP3:The Catalyst feat Np-“Swim Good 2.0”

MP3:Catalyst Feat. N.P. – Swim Good 2.0 (1)

Get Right host,The Catalyst and fellow Though Setter N.P. decided to rap over Frank Ocean’s “Swim Good”
The Catalyst’s verse is dope because while it intially sounds like a rap about sexual conquests, it is actually a bi-polar tale of self-loathing and self-importance.
N.P.’s verse vaguely hints at failures because of a poor choice. I don’t think he is actual talking about himself, though.
