Blakroc Project from Myrhax on Vimeo.
Above is the trailer to one of these most exciting video blogs ive ever watched on the internet to date.Thanks to Dame Dash and his star studded phonebook hes made this happen, not just made it happen but hes also encouraged a master piece to be created in my eyes.
This is cross pollinating the sound of the Black Keys (Blues/70's feel Rock) with some of the most rawest hip hop/Rap artists to date is just well ground breaking to say the very least. The selection of artists could not of been better in my eyes, from one of the kings of conscious raps Mos Def to Billy Danze from MOP's straight raw rhymes. This record has it all and i can not wait to purchase a hard copy of it.
Watch the organic process of the music being created and produced over @ Blak Rocs site.
Throughout all 11 episodes it made me smile from ear to ear,bop my head naturally and laugh a number of times (Billy Danze reactions to the record was pure gold).
I hope this isnt just a one off and itll start a Sub genre of Soulful Hip-Rock.
10/10
Also personally i have to state that Jim Jones really came into his own with this project in my eyes,its made me like him so much more as an artist. Although i did like the Diplomats when i was younger i would have to say i didn't really pay an awful amount of attention to him back then it was mainly Julez Sanatana and Cameron i liked.
