Sneak Peak: J The S "Put My Cape On" Video Shoot Behind The Scenes

*Photo by Peter Verry
I had the privilege of getting to shoot behind the scenes at the J The S video shoot for "Put My Cape On" off his latest release, Wish You Were Here (and be in the video too, can't wait to watch myself 3,190,227 times when it drops). Here's just one photo from the shoot; video and tons of photos will be put up closer to the release of the video. The shoot, shot in two locations (Times Square Arts Center and a warehouse in Brooklyn) definitely was an awesome experience, complete with gorgeous (GORGEOUS!) women, great Mexican food, listening to "Put My Cape On" at least 64 times and a mandatory trip to Arby's on the way home (the roast beef and cheese sandwich was heavenly). Definitely check for more behind the scenes footage coming very soon.

ESSO Freestyle at Sin Lounge for the Anti-Socialite Release Party


At a packed house at the Sin Lounge last night, the homie ESSO put on a damn good show (on no sleep for seven days, it was REALLY impressive). Meka of 2DopeBoyz, Angela Yee, Sway from MTV and The Wake Up Show and more were all in attendance for the event. Here is the Harlem, NY native owning the Gucci Mane "Lemonade" instrumental with a freestyle.

Exclusive Two-Part Interview with ESSO



I definitely had a good time doing these two interviews with the Harlem, NY emcee. Not only is he super-talented, but he's very intelligent as well (anyone who has ever interviewed a rapper can attest to how refreshing it is to hear that). His latest album, The Anti-Socialite, released today, so why not post the interviews up now? Here you are for your viewing pleasure. Make sure you download The Anti-Socialite (link in previous post); it's a great project.

I love getting new, dope music in my email. Here is the long-awaited album by Harlem emcee ESSO titled The Anti-Socialite. This is a great project–definitely worth the download. Interviews with the young-and-ignorant emcee coming very soon.
