Red Bull Thre3-Style | San Francisco Qualifier

This is it party people!

I have been selected to take part in this year’s Red Bull 3-Style party rocking competition for the Northern California region. I’ve never actually battled, and the couple of times I have they were similar to this one (a la party rockin’ style). I never had the nerves for it and honestly i’m a little shook, especially since the line-up is as heavy as you see above. Looking forward to it tho — should be a good time and I hope to see as many of you as possible out in the crowd supporting real skills and real mixing!

Easy for You was a track I worked on with talented MC Mike Baker the Bike Maker a while back. Mike Baker hails from the Island Nation of Alameda just off the coast of Oakland California.

I wanted to do a special project to support the release of the ThatsThat Sampler album and I thought what better way to do it then then do a music video. I listened to the track a few times and realized how fun and positive the track was. A concept rarely seen in todays hip hop music. It reminded me of some Golden Era Native Tongues stuff.The idea for the music video “popped” into my head so to speak as I was visualizing the lyrics. Check out the video and I hope you enjoy!

Please support good music on Itunes!
