#DVSpeak #5: On Set with Ben

Spent time on set with Ben helping with this movie Brent and him are a part of. I assisted him with filming, gave some opinions on lighting, stood on some chairs and got really drunk. Mixed in some footage I found from this fall of Brent & Que Cee in Basement Bar. Must have been October/November.

Kendrick Lamar To Livestream (Not So) Secret Show In Brooklyn

#WhatsGood

Compton lyricist Kendrick Lamar is teaming up with American Express for yet another live event.

In a video released on Twitter yesterday (December 15), K-Dot revealed that he’ll be taking part in a secret show in Brooklyn today (December 16) at the Music Hall of Williamsburg.

“Brooklyn, what’s happening? I told y’all I was coming. Let’s get it,” Kendrick says in the video.

Eager fans may be disappointed to hear that tickets to the show, which were available for purchase exclusively to AmEx cardholders, are already sold out. The venue has a listed capacity of 550.

Despite the limitedness of tickets to the concert, the show will be streamed live on the Facebook pages of both Kendrick and American Expressaccording to Complex.

In addition to tonight’s event, Kendrick performed at American Express’ #AmexAccess concert at Art Basel in Miami at the top of this month.

And alongside former NBA baller Shaquille O’Neal, the West Coast wordsmith also appeared in American Express’ #ShopSmall commercial, which made the rounds on social media weeks ago, just in time for the holiday shopping rush.

New Crimdella: Bury Me in Gold

Crimdella is an old soul, brought back to the future to seek his vengeance.
He’s here to pioneer a movement of honesty, ferocity, fraternity, and monumental truth. Listen to Crimdella! There will be blood.

Bury Me In Gold vol. 1 finds a supremely confident Crimdella delving deeper into a fresh take on hip-hop he has coined #trap-power. For Bury Me In Gold vol. 1, Crimdella, aka #BlackZeusX, partnered exclusively with upstart producer MNDCFT, who takes the ambitious, unhinged rhythms of trap music, marrying them with uncanny melodies. Crimdella fuses these compositions into socially observant, blisteringly personal raps, seasoned with visionary songwriting. Bury Me In Gold vol. 1 is the Harlem emcee’s definitive manifesto.
