VIDEO: JIMIJAMES – STILL IN YOUR HEART

The incomparable JimiJames & the visuals for “Still In Your Heart”. Haz Solo & his fisherman’s beard as the leading man yet again, however, this time around it’s actually true. Only difference is the ending of this video, sad & totally uninhibited from the facts, & if it IS true, I’m riding on that! All jokes aside, Marcus Thomas brings Jimi’s lyrics to life told in a beautiful tone & setting. Proh Mic kills the beat. & JimiJames continues to shine brighter and brighter with each thing she graces. This is only a glimpse of the greatness to come. BELEE DAT!

Late last year Blind I put action behind a dream which was to do an album with a handful of artists that we love. This was even before we went out to SXSW & did our Quality showcase. Our motto has always been “Quality Over Quantity,” & we take that very seriously around these parts. You can tell from each staff member’s individual comps to the posts we make. You can go to many sites & see the same thing. You come here & see something different. You have respecognized this since we stepped onto the scene 4 years ago and have become our beloved “faithful.” We appreciate you all. In honor of you all & for those who don’t know about the Blind I movement, we offer you Quality>Quantity The Album. This album features all brand new exclusive heat from 1-O.A.K., Black Spade, Brittany Street, Co$, Danny Brown, DaVinci, Dert, Devonwho, F.A.M.E, Haz Solo, House Shoes, iLL-Literacy, JimiJames, Joob, Joya Mooi, Noahdeeakili & Sulaiman (C’mon Son… like WE weren’t finna fitz to get on our own schitt), Onra, Penguin Prison, Peter Hadar, Shafiq Husayn, Shawn Jackson, Sonnymoon, Tabi Bonney, The Bangerz & The Primeridian.

THE DEFINITIVE HAZ SOLO COLLECTION

We’ve given you the Junebug Instros, All Jokes Aside project he did with Dylan Thomas, then the instros to that, few loosies here n there, you then found out he was beau to the lovely JimiJames & since then has seen both their works with F.A.M.E. Haz Solo is that doode! Aside from being a killer lyricist, a dope producer banging that new heat,  a talented graphic designer as well… he’s mad humble & very chill & THAT’s a muhfuckin winner right there!! I have been blessed to become a part of his life to the point where he agreed to even do a project with me. (Stay tuned for that too major heat I can’t even speak on yet, but trust me… I aint even lying) I have been meaning to get this post up since like Jan & apologize for delaying the freshness.
