Ana Tijoux - Volver [Official Video]

Rated French-Chilean MC Ana Tijoux takes her song "Volver" to new heights on this video from rated director B+--specifically, above the clouds over Medellin, Colombia (no Escobar jokes please). Which seems to be the natural habitat for her Bahamadia-esque flow on this track; more whispered torch song than rap in the conventional sense. Making the video was clearly a bit of a transcendent moment for Ana as well, and for this Okayplayer world premiere of the video, she shared her memories of the experience, which all came together while she was in Colombia to work with Quantic. ("Volver" is from Ana's current LP La Bala--purchase it on iTunes now: http://bit.ly/SIyztL).

"I became familiar with the work of B+ after seeing some of the documentaries produced by Mochilla about Ma Dukes, Mulatu, and Verocai. To be completely honest, I was immediately and profoundly impacted by their work. Soon I somehow became friends with B+ and now to do a project with him ... im very thankful for this.

I was in Medellin thanks to an invitation by DJ Quantic, to take part in his recordings of Ondatropica in the historic Disco Fuentes Studios. Three days full of tremendous experiences not only at this iconic place, but also with the number of extraordinary musicians that I was able to meet and collaborate with. And of course my curiosity for the city itself, I had never been before and I was lucky to get a little chance to explore and start to understand its cultural, musical, and historical impacts on Colombia and the world.

On my last morning there, B+ and I woke up extremely early with the idea to film what was his favorite song from my new album. We didn't really know what we were going to do, we just walked through the streets and he took the camera and filmed. We had been invited by some community organizers in Comuna 13 to get to know their barrio and a few things outside of the usual tourist routes, and we took the metro to its end to see what was going on.

There, amongst the beautiful people, the organization doing its terrific work, and the reality of life in the barrios of Colombia, we took to the skies with our guide on the MetroCable to see the entirety of this isolated neighborhood. We had been looking for something simple to film, and here we had it, the absolute beauty of the views over the hills that make up Medellin, with all of the humanity of Comuna 13 below.

Volver is a song that is a bit outside of the rest of the album. The music was made by my collaborator Andres Celis, and the idea was to just be open to exploring and adding different kinds of music that inspires both of us, without limits."

LAMC ANNOUNCES 2012 "ARTIST DISCOVERY" WINNER CARLA MORRISON

Celebrating its 13th anniversary, the Latin Alternative Music Conference (LAMC) is excited to announce that the 2012 "Artist Discovery" winner is Carla Morrison from Mexico. Carla Morrison was presented with the award last night at the Gramercy Theatre during the LAMC showcase, where she performed with buzz acts like Adrianigual, La Vida Boheme, Jot Dog, Psycho Realm, and Javiera Mena. Previous LAMC "Artist Discovery" winners include Pacha Massive, Kinky and Los Rakas, providing a springboard into establishing careers. Referred to as the "Sundance of Latin music", the LAMC serves as a continuous indicator of what is up and coming. "It's such a nice surprise and an honor to be named LAMC's Discovery Award winner," said Carla Morrison. "It is amazing to be recognized for the hard work that myself and my team have done over the last few years. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and thanks to everyone who has been paying attention." After Carla Morrison was nominated for a Latin GRAMMY for her album 'Mientras Tu Dormias', produced by fellow Mexicana and singer/songwriter Natalia Lafourcade,  the songstress returned to her beloved hometown of Tecate, Baja California where she recorded her new album 'Dejenme Llorar', her most personal record to date.  Morrison continues to conquer audiences playing major venues and festivals in Mexico, and is breaking ground in the U.S. with her unique sweet, yet soulful, voice and heartfelt lyrics. As part of her win, Carla Morrison receives a prize package including a high-end Shure microphone and in-ear system, an Epiphone guitar, a CD manufacturing deal with the ADS Group and additional prizes from Seymour Duncan, PreSonus, Miktek and Cleartone. Additional support for the LAMC Discovery program was also provided by Gallien Krueger and Artist Relations. Made possible by Absolut, the 13th LAMC had yet another exciting year. With past conferences averaging more than 1,250 attendees and 25,000 concert fans, the conference provides networking opportunities with the genre’s leading artists, entrepreneurs, journalists, marketers, managers and programmers, in addition to the LAMC concerts and showcases.

Canibus vs Dizaster (full video in HD) & apology

Canibus VS Dizaster, went down on June 9th and will be known as the biggest rap battle of the modern era. This was a clash between two very respected and feared artists on a stage where a star's presence and ability to rap with conviction will prove that these are the best of the best in an arena fit for only the most resilient and unique rappers. Canibus, known best for his gutsy shots at L.L. Cool J and other famous artists will attempt to dethrone the current battle rap juggernaut, Dizaster. There are few battlers that can show up in any venue and lock it down, gaining fans and haters at every event. You're about to witness Hip Hop history, classic footage of 2 of the top spitters the world has to offer. Written by: Zachery A Schick

Hosted By: Organik, Gully TK, Christian 818, Lush One, DJ Skee and Poison Pen



via KOTD

After watching the video, peep this apology from Canibus via tumblr:

Greetings and Salutations Rippers,

Recently, I had an incident that caused an atomic-like reaction on to the world wide web. I stepped into a lyrical battlefield to face a challenger who was worthy of my best, yet, could not receive the best of what The Ripper could present due to complicated circumstances. Unfortunately, Rippers, I could not be at my best and my explanation for this is something only someone with a proper attached device in their mechanism can comprehend.

A few days before the KOTD Vendetta event, I was abducted by human blood sucking leeches who did not make their identity known, but I assume were agents of the dark world. While in my vehicle ready to pay for a toll, a helicopter attached with a satellite device that promotes fear flew directly over me. Upon being aware of what was happening I decided to escape on foot and flee from this radioactive device that can cause mental and emotional harm to any man- Even a man who possesses the brain waves of a complicated degree such as myself. As I abandoned my vehicle, I got to a fence and as I climbed underneath, the helicopter got visual contact on its target and there was nothing I could do. Completely lost in a parallel universe I was removed from consciousness and as I woke up I had secret agents of some kind asking me why I decided to battle in this event that was being broadcasted world-wide. I explained to them it was strictly Hip Hop related but they did not believe me. They used Chinese water torture methods at first to try to break my spirits to no avail. They attached wires to my skull and moved on to “Alternative 2.” They then inquired about my knowledge of secret societies and about my experiences in the military.

Something I never told anybody is that one morning, while in the military, I was woken up and interrogated for 86 hours straight about all the infinite rhymes that I had released. They inquired about how I received the findings of this information and how I was capable of putting it in a 4 bar measured instrumental. They conducted various studies and also got a hold of all the infinite rhymes I hadn’t even released yet. Somehow some way I lost all memory of these rhymes… yet I remember everything else. Now back to the KOTD situation. As I was being interrogated by these agents recently I managed to escape thanks to one of the agents who was a fan of mine. I asked him what his favorite Canibus verse was and he told me that he doesn’t know me as Canibus but rather as Subject 9. This man was kind enough to help me escape but eventually I was hit with some type of dart in the back of my neck and the last thing I remember was falling on the back of my head (hence the stitches). I woke up in the back of a cop car then asked the officers why my head was bleeding and my shoulder felt separated. They said they found me like that and that I should have a better understanding of what happened to me. They asked me if I remembered anything and I told them “No.” It was the safest move to make because they could easily have been disguised agents ordered to see what my mental state was like.

The day of the battle my memory and mental state wasn’t 100% due to these circumstances. I knew this so I brought my copybook to practice the 30 plus pages of infinite rhymes that I had structured for Dizaster. The stitches in the back of my head were hurting me and my shoulder was killing me but The Ripper doesn’t need medication, he controls pain with his mind. At the event I was very confident with the likes of Supernatural behind me and the guy who’s strong stomach was showing- But to protect him from any abduction I won’t reveal his name- Lets just call him Subject 10. The crowd showed me energy as well and as I delivered my first round I could see in Dizaster’s eyes he was intimidated by the mind with the infinite rhyme. Eventually the traumatic effect I suffered days before caught up to me and I could no longer be as sharp as I needed to be. The fans paid money, as did the KOTD staff, so even though there was nothing left in my mental tank, I reached for what is now the infamous notepad and decided to read my infinite rhymes. Needless to say, the results were underwhelming and it didn’t look right, but now, realizing the actions that preceded the event I’m sure you all understand.

Firstly, I want to apologize first to ‘Subject 10’ whose vehicle I abandoned when the agents were approaching me. Secondly, I’d like to apologize to Supernat because I made him come support me and stand behind me for that embarrassment. Thirdly, I’d like to apologize to all The Rippers in attendance who I let down. Finally, I’d like to apologize to Dizaster and the entire KOTD staff. I tried my best and stood there like the solider I am but there was nothing I can do. As I said in the event, I could only do what I can do. For everyone who seems to be making a mockery out of my just- Remember this; dinosaurs once ruled the planet, Rome was once a powerhouse, The Blazers drafted Greg Oden, and every dog has its day. Doubt me and you will be defeated.

Footage taken from the 2011 Pretty Lights New Years Eve shows @ the 1st Bank Center in Broomfield, CO. These two shows were insane, and it was the first ever Pretty Lights NYE celebration in Derek Vincent Smith's (Pretty Lights) homestate of CO.

"You Get High is a new style hip-hop jam that incorporates what I think sounds like a slow-mo disco stomp. It's soulful and funky at the same time and it's all about the high you feel when listening to good music." - Derek Vincent Smith

Damon Albarn - Dr Dee Interactive Album Sampler

Dr Dee, a new studio album by Damon Albarn, will be released by Parlophone Records on 7th May 2012 - Pre-Order here

Dr Dee is 18 tracks of songs and music inspired by the life of John Dee, mathematician, polymath and advisor to Elizabeth I. Described by Albarn as 'strange pastoral folk', Dr Dee is a fitting companion to the end of another Elizabethan age. The album combines Albarn's voice with early English choral and instrumentation alongside modern, West African and Renaissance sounds.

Dr Dee was recorded late last year in Albarn's West London studio and also in Salford with the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra. The album was mixed by Valgeir Sigursson in Reykjavik.

Damon Albarn Dr Dee Live at One Fest, UK 14th April

Watch Damon Albarn's Dr Dee Opera Live at the London Coliseum June 25 -- July 7, tickets from £15 Details here
