Hip-Hop in 3D

Music Genre: Hip-Hop

Clever lyricist Shaun Boothe from Toronto, Canada has been blessed with the pen, creating not just Hip-Hop in 3D (a slogan he carries when speaking about his delivery), but also lyrical biographies. Yup! Imagine hearing, and watching the biographies of such legends and leaders as in Bob Marley, Jimi Henrix, MLK and Muhammad Ali with a lyrical approach. Well, MC slash producer Shaun Boothe brings this interest to the stage. You can check out these Unauthorized Biographies here.

But let’s jump on his single titled “Music Man”, which features Amanda Diva. This track caught my attention in a couple of ways; for one, its definitely radio-ready for OMW affiliates, and secondly, Shaun keeps the true hip-hop native tongue alive with his sharp flows. All hip-hop supporting affiliates should give it a listen.

For the first 100 days in office, President Barack Obama has already planted many positive seeds that support his ‘change’ phenomenon, no matter what side of the table you’re on. To celebrate this effort, Hidden Beach Recordings released “CHANGE IS NOW: Renewing America’s Promise” on April 24th, which contains the official presidential inauguration music and video collection. Artists like Death Cab For Cutie, Sheryl Crow, Stevie Wonder and Will.I.Am all come together to shed light on this historic election. Hidden Beach recording artist The Tony Rich Project is also featured on this release with song title “The Dream Is Real”, where the Grammy Award winning artist/producer shines with his classic melodies and clever lyrics, helping to walk his audience through what the majority of people throughout the world had felt on both election day and inauguration night. Enjoy the Tony Rich track and Stevie Wonder Music Video. One love!

Timepiece Discovery

Positioning himself as a time traveler, Baron Von Alias is an adventurous character, with a fake mustache, top hat, rain coat and pocket watch. I first discovered Baron through a particular track delivered by Foundation Media titled “Hear and Now” that features Guilty Simpson who does his thing. Baron’s lyrical approach is mild, yet catchy, as his UK native tongue consistently embraces rare b-boy words and phrases. The “Hear and Now” track on Baron’s Timepiece release is a definite underground hip-hop pleaser ready for mix-show and college radio.
