Jake One Music Videos

Jake One – “Home” Music Video

feat. Vitamin D, Note, Maneak B and Ish

Rhymesayers Entertainment Hard Hitter Jake One drops another hit with this track. Home has a real smooth mellow beat and the featuring emcees do it justice. The song is about the home (Seattle) of the featured artists. Jake One got a real good producer to film this music video, the production is top notch. This is my personal favorite Jake One Music Video. Jake One is such a dope producer.


Jake One: Talking about Hip Hop

Production and the Program

Jake One’s long history of production began in 1992, when he was inspired to begin creating beats by Sensimilla producer Hussein and Vitamin D (Derrick Brown). After collaborating with underground hip-hop artists Boom Bap Project and Sharpshooters, Jake’s production was usurped by the commercial world of rap—artists 50 Cent, Kutfather, Snoop Dogg, G-Unit and E-40 have either directly featured his production on their albums or highlighted his work on full-lengths and compilations. Jake’s beats appear on records released by Rhymesayers Entertainment, Quannum, Epitaph Records, EMI Canada, Interscope and Columbia.

Crossfader’s Darek Mazzone interviewed Jake in his Seattle Capitol Hill studio, where he discussed his vinyl obsession, musical modus operandi, and the stealthy and humble way in which he represents Seattle hip-hop for the United States in totality.


Jake One – The Truth

feat. Freeway and Brother Ali

The Truth is hands down one of my new favorite songs. Brother Ali kills this Jake One beat so ill. Jake One is such a fresh hip hop producer.

Independent Artist Marketing And Advertising

Marketing and Advertising Techniques

In the independent music industry it is important to market your new album in as many places as possible. Typically the independent artist would market themselves on social media networks like Myspace.com, Facebook, ReverbNation, Sound Click, etc. But in todays market those networks are already so saturated with other independent artists doing the exact same thing. And chances are there are hundreds of artists who have been doing it longer than you, have more resources and time to put into it and have already built a following. Keeping that in mind the independent artist needs to find more ways to market their music online. One excellent way to do this is through Banner Advertising. Banner Ads appear on popular websites much the same way billboards are placed on the sides of busy roads. Banner Advertising can be focused to specific websites in order to optimize for your chosen demographic. For instance Bad Habitat would advertise our new album on Hip Hop related websites in order to maximize Return On Investment (ROI).

Banner Ads

The Banner Ads can link to any page you want. If your album is on iTunes that is a great place to send your banner advertisement link. iTunes is the most popular online music store there is and many people trust the apple corporation more than CD Baby or any other online music stores. Also a link to your CD on Amazon is a good choice. If you have the resources getting a website to sell your album on is also a good idea. There are plenty of Web Design Companies that specialize in musician websites.

Banner Ads are a great way to increase your brand recognition and brand awareness. A well designed banner ad placed on a reputable website can launch you from obscurity to fame in a matter of months. Banner Ads also add legitimacy to your brand. By being on a banner advertisement on a successful website it tells people that you are a successful musician and your music MUST be good if you are able to advertise. A great example of banner advertising for musicians is the hip hop website globalgrind.com. They currently have multiple banner ads for everything from Hip Hop Artists to Clothing Companies and even TV Shows. Global Market Exposure is an advertising company that Bad Habitat has used for a long time for services such as Search Engine Optimization, Graphic Design, Marketing and of course Banner Advertising. We have had a lot of success with them and recommend them to any up and coming artist looking to expand upon their music career.

When trying to market yourself online remember a couple of things.

1. How much is your time worth to you? If you can afford it, outsource it. It will make you look more professional to have an Online Advertising Agency representing you. And it will save you a lot of time also ensuring that it is done correctly.

2. Doing it right. It is easy to misspell and use slang which can misrepresent you as an artist. You want to make sure that your Brand Image is handled with care. The logo, photography, online presence, website, social media accounts, etc. They all must be handled professional. If you don’t have the time or if you have a reasonable advertising budget Online Advertising Agencies like Total Market Exposure can help you.

Top Hip Hop Blogs

SOHH Hip Hop Blog

SOHH

SOHH is one of the webs most well known hip hop blogs for a number of reasons. Most notably is the huge hip hop forum that is attached to the website known as Project COVO. They have also recently added a social bookmarking/micro-blogging feature that allows users to post hiphop news. In addition to tons of music news and user features, SOHH hip hop blog also features a grip of hiphop videos for your viewing entertainment.

Rap Basement Hip Hop Blog

Rap Basement

Rap Basement is a dope new hip hop blog that delivers a lot of real good new underground hip hop mixtapes. This is rare from a major online hip hop blog. Especially since money is in the mainstream and underground hiphop is much less profitable. Some dude just know where the real hiphop is at and they just gotta share it with the rest of us on their hip hop blog. Props to the Rap Basement. It is most definitely one of my top hip hop blogs.

Fat Cap Graffiti Blog

Fat Cap Graffiti Blog

As the only Graffiti Blog on our list of Top Hip Hop Blogs, Fat Cap is a fresh spot on the web for everything graff art related. They broke up the site into a bunch of different categories which are really easy to navigate and totally intuitive. I personally like how it breaks them down into Throw Ups, Street Art and Characters. Its worth it to check out whether or not your a graffiti artist. Compared to Art Crimes, Fat Cap is far better.

Hip Hop Crunch Music Blog

Hip Hop Crunch

Hip Hop Crunch is part of the Pop Crunch network which covers popular culture in the media. Hip Hop Crunch mainly covers mainstream hip hop but mixes it up with a flavor of old school hip hop and underground hiphop as well as some of the most obscure hiphop I have ever heard. As a hip hop blog it is pretty good. I don’t visit the site very much myself but they do have a huge following so therefore it has earned a spot among our top hip hop blogs.

Film Hip Hop Blog

Filming Hip Hop

In spite of the deceptive name this hip hop blog does not film or have much to do with film unless there is some news about a new music video. It is however one of my preferred hip hop blogs because they cover real hiphop like Mos Def, RZA, Common, etc. There is a page on the site dedicated to hiphop artists in television and film. I guess that’s where the name comes from.

Original Hip Hop Blog

Tha Original Hip Hop Blog

Tha Original Hip Hop on Blogspot has been around forever and has a vast library of information and albums. If you are looking for a specific album or song for an artist this is a great place to look. That being said, there isn’t a lot of news or original articles here. Mostly just album covers and song lists. As hip hop blogs go its pretty weak but it is an old dog that, while can’t learn new tricks, its old hip hop blog tricks work pretty well.

Hip Hop Blogs

Hip Hop Ruckus

This is one of those mainstream hip hop blogs that is actually really bad ass. From the top down this hip hop blog stands out from the rest. Its got a really good layout, and it separates the mainstream content from the indie content. This makes it easier for users to find what they are looking for. And the simple fact that they cover indie hiphop news is enough to earn them a spot on our list of Top Hip Hop Blogs.

More 2MEX Music Videos

Abstract Rude, Slug, Eyedea, Busdriver, LMNO, 2Mex, Xololanxinxo & DJ Rettmattic – Frisbee

This is a dope underground hiphop track from a grip of dudes. LMNO and Abstract Rude are tight as hell. 2Mex is the man of course, holding down the west coast.


2mex “Dreaming Under Pressure”

I’m not sure if this is the official 2mex music video or if it is a fan video but its ill either way. The song is spliced with scenes from Bruce Lee films and other old school movies. Either way this is another dope 2mex music video


Nobody feat. 2 Mex – Shades of Orange

Shades of Orange EP
Catskills Records
2001

First heard this off an URB sampler CD. Nice bit of downtempo SoCal hiphop. 2mex is a real cool emcee.

2MEX Music Videos

2mex L.A. Like

Sorry this isn’t a music video but it is a 2Mex Classic. If you are a 2mex fan you know this track. A dope ass west coast conscious hip hop classic. 2mex is most definitely one of the illest progressive west coast rappers.


Awol One, Circus and 2mex “Start of the Finnish”

Start of the Finish S.O.T.F produced by Transducer directed by Artificial Army from the album “Self Titled”
This 2mex music video is all about the end of the world. They got some real good special effects and computer graphics for this 2mex music video.


2mex – Graffiti Kings

Another sick track from the west coast underground king, 2mex. 2mex is a brilliant alternative rap artist from the wild west coast and a member in the underground hip hop group The Visionaries. Stay posted for more 2mex songs and 2mex music videos brought to you every week by Bad Habitat Music.

Portland Music Video Production

Portland Music Video Production

Portland Music Video Production

Global Market Productions is a full service Video Production Company in Portland, Oregon. They have produced a ton of really fresh hip hop music videos for rappers in and around Portland. I have spoken with one of their reps and they are gonna give us a really good deal on a Music Video for Bad Habitat. The dudes are really cool and I wanted to make sure that other people know about them. They are relatively new but with a lot of previous experience among them. One dude, David Fuller has been producing full length films, music videos, tv commercials, etc. for a long time. This guy has a lot of talent. I’m not gonna say how much I am paying for my music video but I can tell you that I have shopped around and they offer killer prices compared to the competition.

Portland Music Video Production Equipment

Global Market Productions also has all the high quality equipment needed to shoot a professional music video. from dollies to steady cams, lighting equipment to vehicle hood mounts, these guys got it. I have been to the studio in East Portland and I was very impressed. I will be recommending Global Market Productions for anyone interested in hiring a company for their Music Video Production in Portland, Oregon. You should check em out and do the same. After shopping around there is no other Portland Video Production Companies that can compare.

24 Hour Hip Hop

24 Hour Hip Hop

All Hip Hop All The Time

All Hip Hop Music Videos & Music, Interviews, News, Reviews & Models

24 Hour Hip Hop is a great hip hop culture website. They have interviews with such hip-hop hotties as seen below as well as all kinds of emcees, deejays, break dancers, graffiti artists and more. The hip hop website features a wide variety of videos, interviews, album reviews, hip hop fashion reviews, and a ton more.

24 Hour Hip Hop

24 Hour Hip Hop covers much more mainstream hip hop compared to some of my favorite hip hop websites. That being said it is probably the best of the mainstream sites. There is a good balance of hip hop babes, music news, album reviews and all that. One thing that separates 24 Hour Hip Hop from some of the other mainstream hip hop websites is the fact that they cover a lot of New York Rappers, and give some special attention to the Latin Community. Most other hip hop culture websites are over saturated with southern rap. 24 Hour Hip Hop stands out in that regard. Other than that it is your typical mainstream hip hop news feed with up to date music news about gossip, concerts, beef, etc. The Name, 24 Hour Hip Hop, is appropriate considering the nature of the website and the constant feed of information every 24 hours. Other considerable Hip Hop Culture Websites that I would like to mention are listed below:

YORAPS
Clutch Magazine
Global Grind
ihiphop.com

2mex – So Many Words

2Mex “So Many Words”

Underground West Coast Rapper 2Mex

Yo this is another dope track from the underground sensation 2Mex. Props to the dude he is hella ill. Dope lyrics, fresh beats, real west coast conscious hip hop.


2Mex  “So Many More Words”

Weezer “Say It Aint So Remix”

From The ‘Gloria Was A Kroqer EP’

Damn this is a really fresh song by the dude 2Mex. He stole my idea to do a hip hop song that samples the Weezer song “Say It Aint So”. Its all good though he did it justice and rocked the joint. I am gonna have to go pick up the ‘Gloria Was A Kroger EP’ now.


2mex

“Return of Fernando Mania” Music Video

This is a gangster azz sounding song from the West Coast Underground Rapper 2Mex. The beat on this track is reminiscent of old school Cypress Hill. 2Mex does his thing on this track for sure and kills it as usual.


Tlok ft. Sick Jacken, 2Mex & B Real – Death Or Retirement

Once you get past the long intro this track is a case of dope ass West Coast Gangsta track.


2MEX – GREEN GRASS

Another ill track from 2Mex. Right now we got some videos for you but soon we will have a whole grip of 2Mex lyrics for y’all to check out. Also, more 2Mex music and 2Mex Music Videos are gonna be posted every week so if you are 2Mex fan, which you can probably tell I am, you should check back with us on the regular. Here is a little info on 2Mex and The Visionaries.

The Visionaries is a political hip hop group from Los Angeles, California. The group is notable for focusing on positive issues as well as the diverse ethnic origins of its members. The group formed in 1995, and have since released four full-length albums on Up Above Records. The six members of the group have collectively released over twenty solo and side projects. They have collaborated and performed with many other hip-hop artists, including Wu-Tang Clan, Nas, Common, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Dilated Peoples, Taktloss, De La Soul, Blackalicious, Jean Grae, Psycho Realm, Playalitical, Jay Dee aka J Dilla, and Jurassic 5. If you cant say love is a single made famous off the video game Blitz: The League and is off their Pangaea album.

SXSW 2010 Quick Hits, Day 4: Street Sweeper Social Club

With a second stage set up at the back end of Stubbs, there was only a momentary break after Jakob Dylan’s set at Rachel Ray’s in-demand day party at Stubbs BBQ before Street Sweeper Social Club launched into an incendiary set that heated up the chilly afternoon.

Guitarist Tom Morello has put his Night Watchman folk experiment on the back burner and moved back to doing what he does best, which is rocking out Rage Against the Machine-style. The band’s aggressive and heavy sound clearly recalled Rage, yet with the urban flavor that only the Coup’s Boots Riley can provide in the vocal slot. The opening tune featured a “Manic Depression” vibe from Morello on guitar, while the second tune seemed cut from the same cloth as some early Rage classics. The crowd was instantly enthralled, with fists in the air and cameras out to take pictures…

Baer Puts the Brakes on a Roush Mustang

One of the most respected names in performance brakes is Baer Brake Systems (Phoenix, Arizona). In 1986 founder Hal Baer established Baer Racing, Inc. Originally, the business provided race preparation and fabrication services between seasons and race dates. But as popularity and demand for its brake systems grew, Baer was forced to look into expanding business to put its brakes into production for the masses.

Hal’s technical and analytical skills, coupled with a keen ability to spot people with strong, diverse talents and assemble them into a cohesive team, has always been one of Baer Racing’s greatest strengths. To that end, following the 1993 race season, Hal partnered with Todd Gartshore and Robert Sommers to form Baer Brake Systems. Read More at DUB Magazine
