Angela Yee interviews THC on Shade45

THC on Shade45 with Angela Yee from Matty J on Vimeo.

Spotlight: John Colombo

If you haven't seen the "House Of Dreams" video ft. Joy Luv by now then I don't know where the hell you been at. When Jon Colombo came to stay at our house almost a year ago we didn't realize we'd be getting hooked up with such an ill video. A year later we have got ourselves a good friend from the Cloudkicker crew that has ended up filming multiple videos at the HOD. Colombo has been handling the Video Production side of Cloudkicker while Mike Cash holds down the music productions and Mike D holds down the fashion side of things. If you don't know, Cloudkicker and Projectivity pretty much work hand in hand so it was obvious that we had to get that video done with the legend himself. Recently Colombo has done videos for Joe Budden and Slaugherhouse. He's got some upcoming work with Jadakiss so definitely be on the lookout for that. Things are only getting bigger and brighter for this up and coming music video producer and Projectivity affiliate. Check out his videos @

Brother Ali -

Something about Brother Ali has left a taste of the golden era in my ears. And I always enjoy it when i can taste things in my ears. Let me clarify; the simplicity in his production mixed with raw passion driven lyrics sounds like he could belnd right in the with EPMD and Rakim. Anyone that saw him on tour with a ten piece band along side ghostface and rakim knows his capabilities. His newest release, "The Truth Is Here" EP is a solid set of songs that might have been passed over for the final cut of "Undisputed Truth". I feel a few could have made it. Overall, Brother Ali continues to capture listeners covering everything from his daily habits on tour to Islam and more. If you haven't bothered tuning into the "Champion Sound" at this point in your hip-hop fandom, its about time you see what this Rhymesayer is all about.
