88 Killa - The Code ft. YKK [Video]
Artist: 88 Killa featuring YKK
Song title: The Code
Produced by : Ish D
from the 88 BPM EP
This song resonates with me because I wrote it at a time when I felt that everyone that I once respected let me down. Although I learned a lot of valuable things from various mentors and peers, I soon began to piece together that they often weren’t living by the same standards that they were holding me too. So I took that frustration and channeled it into this record as message to them. I hope that whoever listens to this, can either relate or use this song as a way to convey the same sentiment to whoever they feel is living up to the code.

23-10 - Oh You Mad? [Video]
We entered a contest for !llmind The Producer called "Oh You Rap?". And out of hundreds of submissions, WE MADE THE TOP 5!! Now as we didn't win you can imagine how excited a couple kids from Kokomo, IN would be to get this type of love and recognition. We wanted to give the song it's just due as we felt it was a very strong song. So we decided to shoot a video for it.

Con - "Free Dreams" [Video]
Venturing into solo artistry for the first time in his musical career, Con is a killer, imaginative voice coming straight out of the St. Louis music scene. With his honest, merciless lyrics that deliver a deep and serious message backed behind a magnetic track, Con is the artist to look out for this year. As a young leader in today's thriving “DIY” community, his musical mastermind transcends easily across a number of genres, often birthing what most profoundly consider the explicit emerging sounds of tomorrow. It's safe to say that Con is a force to be reckoned with. This is quite obvious in his newest hit, “Free Dreams.” Con’s music is equipped with a true experience you don’t want to miss out on.
“Free Dreams” is a song reminiscent of the rappers of the 90’s such as Coolio and Public Enemy. Soaked with rhythms all his own and a lyrically substantial sermon, “Free Dreams” delivers a message about rising from the ashes of ancestors’ past and coming out on top to make something out the struggles that have been faced. This tale deals with the Black American Narrative of dignity, confidence, and distributing success across the culture.
Profoundly influenced by African-American Muslim minister and activist, Malcolm X, the video for “Free Dreams” opens with a sound clip from a conversation between Malcolm X and Brother Baines, as seen in Spike Lee’s 1992 film, Malcolm X, about the cons and lies African-Americans have been told for centuries in order to keep them from rising up. Unsettling clips showing past struggles in American society throughout the video, mixed in with Con’s venture and experience of his own. Con’s gritty, unwavering chronicle combined with the unshakable track creates a poignant experience bar none for its viewers.

Low Country Kingdom - Doin' It [Video]
Scott (rap, guitar), Adam (keytar/beats), Suz (vox), and Lang (vox) are Low Country Kingdom. They live in a house together in Hancock Park, Los Angeles, where they write, record, and shoot every day.
On the first of every month, they release a new song, and they plan to do that indefinitely. "Doin' It" is January’s release.
They also take pride in their live show, which features an unpredictable mix of four lead vocalists, live instrumentation, beats, fx, and video projection. They’ve played everything from raging UCLA frat parties to iconic rooms like Great American Music Hall in San Francisco. In all cases, they hold themselves to the noble standard of making sure everyone gets laid or dies trying.
Don’t miss what this fire-breathing band of weirdos comes up with next.

Full Bio:
Think Outkast meets Chromeo meets porn in space. They’ve been featured on KickKickSnare, YabYum, The New LoFi, EarToTheGround, and Satan’s Top 50 Tracks For Roadtrippin’ With Your Buds.
Scott [rap, lead guitar] met Adam [keytar, producer] at the University of Pennsylvania when he kicked him out of a frat party -- but that’s water under the bridge. Some time later in San Francisco, they wrote and recorded their debut album (Big Like China), which ranges widely from heavy beat-driven rap anthems [Manifest Destiny] to soulful pop hits [Mmm Mmm Mmm, Another Ordinary Day] to Kanye-esque industrial orchestral instrumentals, and everything in between.
Meanwhile, Suz [co-lead vocals] was studying music at S.F. State when she stumbled upon an intriguing craigslist ad for a "hypersexual electrosoul vocalist with a heart of gold" and submitted some vocal samples. A month later, LCK became a trio.
Meanwhile, Lang [co-lead vocals] was singing classics aboard a Carnival cruise line in the South Pacific. Eventually he ported near San Francisco, and, as chance would have it, LCK was playing a gig at Amnesia SF. Adam and Lang were old high school buddies, so Adam invited him on stage with LCK as a guest vocalist for a few tunes. He set the storied venue aflame with magnificent vocal arpeggios, and quit his job the next day.
Now a quartet, the squad rages on, writing, recording, and producing music and video content from their house in Hancock Park, Los Angeles, California (yes, they all live together, eat together, cook together, make love together). Don’t miss what this eccentric team puts out next...
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Eight speed schwinn on the beach and I’m going naked
I got a tan on my dick man I’m going places
Beauty looking at me funny like she needs some lasik
But I don’t give a crap
I guess I’m constipated
Red one piece
So baywatch
She brought a kingdom
I brought a boom box
But if she thinks that I’m the king
Then I won’t ever have to leave
[Chorus]
We keep on doin’ it
Keep on doin’t it
[Verse 2]
Now I don’t know what I’m doin so I’m gonna fake it
A little johnny walker blue I guess I’m going wasted
And I don’t know if I’m dueling but I got my saber
Cause even Jesus knew his Dad might need to leave him hanging
What would He do if He could see the girl that I see
Cause Aphrodite’s the one delivering me nightly
Gold skin ripped jeans and some nikes
Make me wanna rip em off and start a dynasty
And don’t be fooled by my drool girl i’m so clean
Baleen in the streets but i stay lean
Poutine in the sheets then ice cream
You scream we scream and yeah
[Verse 3]
I do it in my dreams underwater where i still breath
Do it like i’m greek. achilles.
Do it in an instant, triple shot of illy
Maybe won’t do it. Milli vanilli
Sing my own ballads. About my elephant.
DJ khaled. We’re intelligent.
Designer drugs from the netherlands. elegant.
The periodic table of the elements
I don’t do a schedule. i gotta stay flexible
Yoga pose warrior one give me a medal
Skipped two went to three who knew i’m a rebel
Warrior infinity forever, i’m a keep on doin it
I don’t do a schedule. i gotta stay flexible
Yoga pose warrior one give me a medal dude
Skipped through to three who knew i’m a rebel do
Warrior infinity forever, i’m a keep on doin’ it
