New Album: Mike Briz and Eastgate - "X​-​Samples Of Life"

Some of you may remember a video we recently posted from this rap duo ("Calm Down"). Well, the Canadian rap duo has dropped a great new album entitled X-Samples of Life. The production throughout the entire album Pirate X (7Seas Studios) is banging, and the two emcees go in hard with intense flows and witty lyricism on every track.

Frankie Payne - The Goal

Freedom Writers coming out with rapid offerings of heatery lately, take in the newest release from Frankie Payne. Vid directed by Big Sproxx.


"FP Association preservation is policy, a very important rule second to only honesty, Double Q rated that's Quality and Quantity, created in the basement like I grew it hydroponically". Following the success of the singles "Wake Up", "Arizona Bay" and "For The Change" the Freedom Writers are back at it again with their latest installment "The Goal." The spotlight here is on Toronto, veteran emcee Frankie Payne formally known as Jugganot as he lays down precise flows, street knowledge and a melodic hook which he describes as "Revolutionary Soul" creating the perfect blend of wisdom and grittiness.. In "The Goal" Frankie takes you on a lyrical journey backed by a two in one powerful, hypnotic composition courtesy of Freedom Writers comrade Big Sproxx who also directed and edited the video. Whether you're working a 9 to 5 or the block, trying to get out debt or jail, WE ALL WANT FREEDOM. In a perfect world we are all free from physical, finical, mental and spiritual oppression, but in this world freedom is "The Goal".

THEO3 - Away

Punchline-tastic new video for "Away" from Theo's Elevator Up mixtape (mixed by Tony Touch). Produced and directed by Big Sproxx.

 

Hip Hop Emcees are notorious for crafting mind blowing punch lines that whip the crowd into a frenzy similar to a fast break slam dunk on the hardcourt or a bone jarring hit in between the white lines. A punch line provides momentum, motivates the masses and reigns as a quotable to be compared and analyzed for years to come. The requisite "Ohhhh's" and squinched up facial expressions after the bomb drops are hallmarks of the highly intelligent and discerning Hip Hop audience. Emcees who can deliver wave after wave of devastating wordplay take pride in the ability to 'next level' a song, acapella or live performance.

Critically acclaimed Toronto Hip Hop artist THEO3 has long been known for his potent punch lines and exciting, energetic delivery. Rocking live crowds across Canada and blazing live radio sessions such as the 2010 Halftime 12th anniversary show with powerhouse NYC DJ Eclipse and a host of reputable rhymers (Rhymefest, Sadat X, Homeboy Sandman and Tona to name a few), THEO3 lives for the perfect balance of whyle out reactions and awe inducing flows. In this Brand New video "AWAY" produced and directed by Big Sproxx of the Freedom Writers (www.FreedomWritersMusic.com) THEO3 weaves in and out of this hypnotic head banging beat with deft precision and pin point accuracy. Available on the recently released ELEVATOR UP mix cd hosted and mixed by the incomparable DJ Tony Touch (Shade 45, 50 Emcees), "AWAY" is 3 minutes of straight punch line madness! Grab the full CD at www.THEOLOGY3.com and enjoy the ride...

"The FREEDOM WRITERS" are a Toronto based collective featuring some of Canada's most dangerous Emcees. Tona, Adam Bomb, Progress, Frankie Payne and Theo3 fill out the all star roster alongside multi talented producer and video director Big Sproxx. Stay tuned for a barrage of original songs and videos in preparation for the highly anticipated FREEDOM WRITERS debut album later this year. Can't stop, won't stop!

Tona - Vietkwam

Big Tone from the Freedom Writer's collective setting it off with his latest release, "Vietkwam" (Kwame is Tona's African name), a dub over the "Closed Chapter" instrumental by Black Milk. The first line sets the lyrical tone for the kind of verse you're about to listen to: "I got poutine dreams of getting cheese until everything is gravy..." Video by Big Sproxx.



"In preparation for my upcoming Mixtape "Reform School" mixed by world renowned Dj Wristpect scheduled for a February release, here is some new video work I call "Vietkwam" The title comes from my African name "Kwame" and the everyday war I articulate in the lyrics using Vietnam as a metaphor for it.

Do not cheat yourself and watch the video in anything less than HD Quality. Enjoy!
