A video from one of my favorite new(er) video crews 3 Little Digs. Shouts to Sean Falyon still being everywhere (SFBE) and putting out a video for one of his standout tracks on SFBE2. Even though he insists the preacher speaking in the song is a cut from the movie "Colors" I still stand by my original theory that it's Playboy Tre on those clips.
Speaking of Tre and Sean Falyon, peep some fresh footage I JUST uploaded last night to YouTube of their performance at A3C 2010 and while you're at it check out the footage from their latest Red Cup Party with Pill, BoB and more. Word is, there's gonna be a Red Cup Party the weekend of A3C, so if the planets align, you know your boys will be in the house with the camera.
Couldn't pause or stop this one all the way through.

In celebration of Crown Royal Black's partnership with Big Boi, cameras went behind the scenes to document Big Boi in compelling moments of his life and career that showcase his definition of "The Crown Life." The short film lets audiences into Big Boi's life as he performed during the 2011 Grammy Awards weekend; inside his studio, Stankonia, as he prepares for his latest projects; and an evening out on the town in his hometown of Atlanta with stops at his favorite spots to unwind.
The film is directed by Hudson Dusters for Greenpoint Pictures.

We discussed racism against postal workers, Drake getting knuckled up by Weezy, a listener submitted Stash Box and we put Devin the Dude's latest album on the chopping block for Blend it or Bump it!
From Pills upcoming mixtape 1140: The Overdose hosted by DJ Drama, dropping 6/1.
Shouts to Decatur Dan for putting together a sick video for a mixtape track.
One of our favorite new artists is back at it. This video is done in conjunction with NahRight, and I applaud the dudes for keeping a one-room video somewhat interesting. Video aside, the track is hard as hell and can be found on Pills's 4075: THE REFILL which is available for download now.
"Been cold hearted since daddy left me alone, never got taught me how to throw a baseball or put on cologne, fuck em."
Pill is easily going to be one of the top 5 of 2010 hands down. Don't sleep on this cat. That second verse is insane.
1140: The Overdose coming soon.
Pill - "Thoughts"

Who was spittin the hardest on this session? I gotta go withGibbs, who just slightly edged out Jay Rock and Pill , who did his thing, but it sounded like he went almost 100% off the head. Honorable mention to Lamar and Armeretta. Props to OnSmash for the footage
