TEFF x COMPANY | THE ARCHETECTS PRESENTS: THE PRELUDE [B.T.S.]

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us Image Hosted by ImageShack.us Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
Photographed by: Slick Jackson.


[28-11-12] - Peace, world! I hope these words sit as well with you, as it does me. It takes a special brand of perception to understand that: quality work, requires quality time. I came into this realisation shortly after moments of self-imposed criticism; I wondered why and when will I begin to put much more action, behind words. And, to what extent was I willing to see myself go? Do I continue to make this journey alone? It occurred to me it had happened again - self-evaluation, the token catalyst to self-growth - had happened again. This time, however, it transpired a bit different. I realised I had reached that very moment most do when they grasp onto the fact they're finally doing what they've longed to do - for what seems like entirely too long. And, your heart beats three beats too fast; your palms, remain sweaty; your thoughts, cluttered, yet fluid; your eyes, bright; your words, more fluent. If this is what the beginning feels like, there's no telling the quality and brand of high that awaits me once I reach the zenith. I am excited, however - excited that the Universe has permitted the merging of myself and my partner, Zunyda's paths.
Here are some behind the scenes shots taken while filming “The Archetects Presents: The Prelude” with Slick Jackson yesterday. The Archetects is a creative, collaborative effort comprised of visual Artists, inclusive of myself and dear Zunyda, with a focus on infusing structured with free-form Art. Peace.

VIDEO: CASHTRO CROSBY x "INTRO TO RASTA MONSTA" | SHORT FILM


Filmed & directed by: Slick Jackson.

This short film was shot in New York City for the intro to Cashtro Crosby's latest project, "Rasta Monsta". You can download the album & the chopped, not slopped version [here].

Filming and directorial talent, Slick Jackson majestically transitions from music videos to live performances and, now, short films. I must admit I am impressed with his versatility. After all, what dictates an artist's ability more fluently than the ability to adjust - to be versatile?

PA-bred rapper, Cashtro Crosby provides insight on the makings of "Rasta Monsta", sails the city streets and immerses himself into New York culture. Enjoy; peace.

VIDEO: KENDRICK LAMAR x SOUTHPAW [LIVE]


Filmed by: Slick Jackson

Unfortunately, I had the displeasure of missing this performance. For some reason, I got the dates mixed up; I thought he performed on the 15th, not the 17th. Meanwhile, I had the flyer all handy on my iTouch. Would've been lovely to see him perform a second time; he is beyond amazing. Much love to Slick for the visual and to the crowd for vibing extremely well with Kendrick.

VIDEO: "A DAY IN L.A." x L.A. x SLICK JACKSON

Just when I thought female emcees/lyricists were extinct, my wife MeLodi , Dom O. Briggs and Tony Polo brought L.A. into my life.
I had the privelege of hearing this Brooklyn native spit on a track titled "musik" on Dom O. Briggs 's mixtape "The sounds of music". Flow, delivery, and lyrics is fucking ill. Can't wait to meet her, but in the mean time, here's some amazing visual by Slick Jackson , another incredible talent.
