VIDEO: THE PARK – BELLE

The SF homies known as The Park, have been busy doing Grillade, backing Big K.R.I.T. , Freddie Gibbs & changing the game one track @ a time. It’s good to see a “Park” joint tho, & this schitt is that kinda schitt that moves you automatically. You just want to sit and reflect on life & how you bout to fuck up the game even more so now (or @ least that’s just me) aside from being great musicasins & masters of their craft, the are also some of the nicest, coolest dooes you will ever meet in this batch. So they get all the Jedi respecognition they deserve.

BIG K.R.I.T. | GRILLADE – NEVA GO BACK

Grillade & Big K.R.I.T.!? What? Rumor has it (not really a rumor, Keelay hipped me to game but to go along with the script…) that the two will be releasing a EP together & the proceeds from the vinyl (VINYL MY NIGGA… VINYL!) will go to the charity The Roots Of Music. The groove is smooth & a must to have in the rotay.

GRILLADE – JUST A SAD CHRISTMAS

I was a fan from jump, so yes, anytime they do sumin’, expect to see it here. Grillade have been making noise with their “Dream Of You” video & have been hard @ work on their debut album dropping  in 2011. The following is not your average Christmas standard as far as “covers” go. The lovely Ragen Fykes explains to us in her own words that…

“Sad Christmas embodies the soul of Christmas now. It has meat, it has bite. It reflects on the vast majority that are shadowed by Jingle Bells. Not everybody is standing under the mistletoe this year, not everyone is having a Holly Jolly Christmas. Its The christmas song you would never hear, but should hear. It offers a musical release from Grillade, for those in need. Tis the season.”

GRILLADE – REMAIN THE SAME

Producer & homie Keelay is back with a brand new bag for you to dig in! You remember the Keelay & Zaire project & how banging that was so this will be no exception either. Keelay calls on the artistry of Ragen Fykes (the homie Kenny Fresh had been campaigning real heavy for her) & The Park (the bay area’s most sought after rhythm section)  to create “Grillade“, presented by Yours Truly.& for those that will be @ this years CMJ will get a chance to catch this new ensemble of freshness live & direct!
