Jay Electronica’s Exhibit C…

…will have a visual behind it? O Lets do it!!! MTV Can explain more about it with directors Coodie & Chike:

“We’re in discussion. We’ve been building on it, so hopefully soon,” Coodie said. “We’re moving on it, man. We’re in pre-production actually preparing to do it, so we’ll see.”

“Yeah, but Jay is quite the magician, so he’s visible one minute and disappears the next,” Chike chimed in.

“Without giving it away, it’s definitely something that’s going to be very interesting, and it’s going to take a lot of artists,” Chike said. “Not just rappers, but a lot of artists as far as putting this together. Cats that are true with their craft. It’s going to be dope.”

Enjoy.

P.S: I kind of miss Coodie & chike’s old video production from when they were here in chicago crica early 90’s & early 2000’s. Like this.

Movie Of The Week: Bastards Of The Party

Yes, we skipped one night of my “Movie Of The Week” series due to my spring break, but out of the fly, I peeped this documentary from tAzArnold’s twitter page. Watched a few of it and wanted to share it with you guys. #PowerOfTheInternet. It’s called, Bastards Of The Party. Peep info below.

Raised in the Athens Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, Cle “Bone” Sloan was four years old when his father died, and 12 when he became a member of the Bloods. Now an inactive member of the notorious gang, Sloan looks back at the history of black gangs in his city and makes a powerful call for change in modern gang culture with his insightful documentary, BASTARDS OF THE PARTY.
