VIDEO: YELAWOLF – POP THE TRUNK

Honestly, Yelawolf is one of my favorite new artists so far this year. I’d heard about him last year smashing shows down in the Atlanta area, I’d checked out his joint Box Chevy, I knew he’d been signed for a short stint on Columbia, so I gave him a shot and he didn’t disappoint. I even featured one of my favorite joints off his recent mixtape, “Trunk Muzik“, on the latest installation of Blind I Says GO! If you like bass-knocking beats and fresh delivery I recommend you check this video for Pop The Trunk out and then hit the jump to download Trunk Muzik. Indulge!

NO KNOWS DOPE::APRIL 2009

Whattup Blind I faithful! I truly apologize for not droppin this on the 15th (the day NKD’s are scheduled to drop) but the truth of the matter is that (in the words of my momz) ‘I am burning the candle @ both ends’ by doing ‘4 much’ these daze! But ya know what I say… I’ll rest when I’m dead. So with that being said, let’s get to it! I had 5 songs that I had previously selected a month ago for this months edition. The rest was compiled all damn day today. There were songs I had in mind for this comp but needed a lil help in obtaining so with that I say a SPECIAL JEDI THANK YOU TO: J Peepz, Platurn, Pickster,  Dandiggity, G-Wrex & Goldenchyld. G-Wrex & Goldenchyld of The Bangerz were in the lab yesterday & created a blend of Pharrell’s That Girl to Dert’s Venus Morning (featured on his last project Talk Strange) . Peep the track…

MAIYA PRESENTS…COSMIC SOUNDS

Blind I Faithful! We acquire more and MORE of you each month, and we love sharing our compilations with you. There is so  much fun in it. My last few mixes have been smooth and soulful- reflective of my typical mood. But this past month has been loaded with crazy-making-moments and lots on my plate. So as a result, I spiced this one up a little bit. Its jumpier and more bombastic, but then there are pleasant lulls along the way with the slow-rolling joints.
