TALKIN' VIDEOS

Wassup, wassup, wassup! I think you'll find today's selection of videos kind of... well... delectable.

Oftentimes I’d blog about the dope femcees, and ask you to give me the list of girls that you thought controlled the mic. And I noticed that MANY of you placed this particular lady on top of your list, asking me, “Breezy? What about Jean Grae?”

Well, you know what?

I’m giving shorty some props today.

Thirsty, anyone?

True story, I’ve never seen the movie The Warriors , so this video doesn’t have much of an effect on me. However, I AM bigging her up because this song is sooooo damn sexy. Ladies, THIS is the way it’s done. I love the way she rhymes about getting it on almost violently with a lover without making it sound Kim or Foxy-esque. Honestly, it gave me visions of having rough sex in a steamy shower– so dirty, but so pristine and natural at the same time. Meaning, yeah, pull my hair, n*gga, but I ain’t putting no Sprite cans down my throat. I’m feeling that.

I just hope those “retirement” rumors I heard about her are just a hoax.

This next video comes to you courtesy of hip-hop band called Spokinn Movement. If you’ve ever been to Bowery Poetry Club or Sin Sin, maybe you’ve seen these cats get down before. I had the pleasure of meeting and corresponding with one of the main lyricists, Illspokinn. In addition to pursuing his own career, Ill is associated with an after-school program called Urban Art Beat, an organization that teaches hip-hop songwriting and English literacy to students at South Bronx Preparatory School (admit it, that’s dope– I sat in on one of their sessions and it’s AMAZING seeing little kids spit crazy metaphors!).

I’m not exactly sure how old this track is, but when I peeped the video, I had to post it. I was immediately feeling the funky rhythm, and it had a certain something that I feel is missing from a lot of hip-hop videos today, but I can’t exactly put my finger on it (maybe you can). I will say that I love the concept of them being so “delicious” that their heads are the dish du-jour on the banquet table!

The director, Rammy Park, gets props for this one, as well.

Aight y’all, I’m out today. If you’re feeling the videos, show ya love below or holla at me!
