I’ve been hearing the name Kalae for a few months now but she actually reached out to me on Twitter with her brand spanking debut video “O.G LyrikalBookbagger” off the debut album called AfromatikNeoHippieRock*SoleMuzik.  Now if that’s not a mouthful- what is! It dropped about a month ago. It’s fresh.  So for a fairly new artist- just 21- barely 2 years on the scene- Kalae has made a splash and she’s rising fast!  She’s very active on the blogging- check out Kalae

Very talented- Kalae blends and fuses Soul, Electronic and Hip Hop into one- a melting pot and it works!

Check the video featuring ‘that tall dude’- Homeboy Sandman. Directed by Mark Carranceja for NoiseMaker Media.

Of course I knew before even watching this it would be hot– I love anything Homeboy Sandman related.

So the album’s fresh- features Mic Wilson, Princess Superstar, Homeboy Sandman, Baxter Wordsworth, & Likwuid.  And if that’s not hot- the album release party was at Body and Soul Tattoo last month- now why wasn’t I invited!!!

HALLWAYS makes a bold first step with the single "Problems," which is as Tribe Called Quest fun as it is Pharaohe Monch dour. That's the great quality of Homeboy Sandman, who makes no qualms about explaining his moods, affectations and joys. We were sweating the single when it dropped. Here's the video after the jump.

New Music: Homeboy Sandman – “America, The Beautiful”

10 years ago view-show 332,343

Homeboy Sandman is a lyrical gymnast who doesn't assault with messages or perfunctory turns into spoken word lecture style. "America the Beautiful" sounds like a Maya Angelou rendition or an Erica Alexander portrait of this great, flawed nation.
