VIDEO: BAMBU – OLD MAN RAPS

This new video by L.A.’s Bambu shows how sometimes the game changes folks as adulthood and parenthood come clashing into a G’s life. I’ve seen all my heroes and friends change up their perspectives as they got into their 30′s and started having kids/families. We’re still the same ol’ hood kids inside, just a bit wiser. Purchase his music at Beatrock.

VIDEO: BAMBU – SLOW DOWN FT. PROMETHEUS BROWN

My homie Bambu does it again, and this one snuck up on me. Straight off his new EP Paper Cuts Bam speaks on the continual change of the urban landscape through gentrification and racism. And always making it fam business he has emcee Pro-Brown of the Blue Scholars get down on a verse. And some legit eskrima in action? Shit, slow down homie.

PRETTY BUOYANT SOCIETY

Sometimes you just want to do something fun and different once and a while. This is the case for some friends of mine, Adriel Luis (Ill-Literacy) and DJ Phatrick (Native Guns). When not touring around the nation, doing shows around the globe, and opening for world class acts, these two fly Chinese brothers combine their love of creativity into something fun and refreshing for themselves.

Adriel’s a well known spoken word poet and Phatty’s flippin’ tracks for LA’s Bambu, so when they decided to create some songs they knew the byproduct would be something beyond their imaginations. I call it guiltless fun.

Download the two tracks by PBS here and unleash your inner child as well.

VIDEO: BAMBU’S “CROOKS AND ROOKS”

New video from my boy Bambu off his third LP Exact Change.

Ex-gangbanger, ex-Marine, Bambu has been a voice for L.A. and Filipino freedom fighters everywhere.

I’ve known Bam for a long time and he doesn’t front with his words and actions.

Big ups to OKAYPLAYER.COM for giving my boy some love!
