Shad – Besides [Mixtape]

Shad, neben Drake der wohl populärste Kanadische Rapper, hat seit einigen Tagen ein neues Mixtape im Angebot:

Here’s a little joint I thought some fans might like; a 25-minute mix of some of the guest spots I’ve done on other projects over the past couple of years. Mixed by my man, the former DMC and Scribble Jam Champion, DJ TLO. Be sure to check out the tracks in full if you dig!

Shad – Keep Shining [Video]

Artist: Shad
Title: Keep Shining
Album: TSOL (2010 Black Box / Decon)

Director: Sarah Michelle Brown

Note from the Director:
To me, the “Keep Shining” video is an ode to the strong and often under-appreciated spirits of women. This video was designed as a candid and thought/emotion-provoking concept. My goals were to create a candid and uplifting experience that featured a wide diversity of women and girls and to also unearth what I felt lay beneath the lyrics: A call to claim one’s voice. Early on, I realized a key to this concept: Shad barely appears in the video. The ladies own the lyrics. For me, it’s as if Shad is saying “take it, own it, your voice belongs to you.” It was my intention to show strength, vulnerability, joy, catharsis and reclamation of the spirit of all those who appeared in these 3 minutes and 44 seconds. My hope is that it will speak to women, girls, men and boys and everything in between. Let’s all “Keep Shining”.

Keine 4 Minuten nach dem Genuss ließ ich Wasser und ganz ehrlich, es roch unglaublich unschön: Continue reading
