OLD MONEY music video

Video I shot and edited for R-Sin featuring Jon Quest (of Varsity Squad) We sort of just went in and started shooting.  R-Sin had a basic story line he wanted and I just went with it...We only shot this in under 2 hours and it was a rushed shoot due to the location and time of the shoot....so please excuse the shadows lol

NEW RUN 412 HOODIES AVAILABLE!!!!!

A few years ago I came up with this concept for RUN 412 based off of the RUN DMC logo. It has been a succesfull venture between me and Paul Dang (DJ MAD BUDDHA). For quite some time, all that was available were T-Shirts. The sweatshirt and zip-up hoodie were recently unveiled. I am in the process of putting together a short promo for the piece, and this (below) is a still from the piece. The piece features my 15 year old daughter Arnita. RUN 412 gear is available at 720 RECORDS...located at 4405 Butler st, Pittsburgh PA 15201. You can also purchase from their website at www.720records.com, or you can contact me and I will make sure you get one.

THE ARCHIVES!!!!!

The first film/documentary done about Pittsburgh Hip hop was done by me back in 2000. My group HI-LOW was making some noise and to be honest it was just the fam getting it in...ME, T-note, U-turn (Yusef) and Chenits (tomorrow aka Chen-Low). The funny thing about it is that we were doing a ton of shows, no records out, no deal,no manager just on the road having fun doing what we love to do. This documentary had it's debut at the Andy Warhol museum and was eventually put out on VHS...(yes I said VHS). It was all grind all the time. I never uploaded it for several reasons, but my homeboy Will from High Impact Designs uploaded it, so I thought I would share it. It's not the best copy in the world, and it was basically me with a camera taping me and my people's shows. Like I said I focuse don our squad HI-LOW but had to give love to other cats from the 412, such as J.Sands, Strict flow, RXC, ROOK and BISHOP ect....(also look out for cameos from Mos Def and Kweli) There is even some footage from Rust college in there. Sometimes I can show you better than I can tell you.....btw I do have a better copy...I should probably upload that at some time. Here are the break marks for HI-LOW 1:49 (performance), 7:30 (Yusef/U-turn is drunk out of his mind in DC, after a show with J.Sands, Kweli and Unspoken Heard...unable to get out the car and eat), 8:48 (performance), 10:36(performance w/rook n bishop), 15:10 old school recording sessions, 22:59 Scene at Rust College 1994, 24:40 Performance and just us until the end.....dope *****NOTE***** The version that is on here is now from my master tape, not Will's version, mine is a little cleaner.....the marks may be a second or two off...but enjoy anyway******

"Always official" behind the scenes shoot at BLB studios

I had a few people come through for a session at BLB studios. This song was supposed to be recorded over a month ago, but with so many people on the joint had to accommodate every ones schedule.  Some people sent in verses via the net, and a few couldn't make it on that day as well.  The reason why I wanted (almost) everyone present during the session, was so that they could feed off of each other and that I could actually "produce" the track instead of just having people do their verse over the beat I made some time ago.  The session was a success, was actually able to start two songs, as well as build with everyone involved.  Dj Huggy and Deizel were both engineering the session and me and T-note had the cameras and lights going.  Some of us did double duty that day I was in control of the session as well as filming and taking pics and T-note did his verse and kept the cameras going as well.  Video coming soon, until then here are a few screen grabs (clips from the video).....all of the pics listed before were stills taken from video, everyone besides for the one taken of Huggy and Deizel.  I dumped the Video into the mac...then did my "magic" on them...(on a side note....if you use these pics the only thing I ask is that you give us our proper credit.)

DJ house shoes at the shadow lounge

I shot this at the shadow lounge some time ago.....instead of going for the usual djing/club clips ect...I went for the personal approach.  Everyone involved is more like family than friends, so I went with that aspect.  I also didn't realize that House shoes was coming back in this Friday, I did talk to him earlier this week on the phone and he said he was going to be coming through on "some last minute type ish"...but didn't realize he meant this friday.

How did I miss this

For whatever reason I never saw this video posted...even though I gave the last "testimony"...and probably summed it up the best.
