Part of the King of the Beats family. M.Will the Shogun announced today he was giving away 10 of his albums away free. M.Will is one of the special featured guests in the movie..King of the Beats presents ‘Looking for the Perfect Beat’.
In his own right the young producer has had a very different upbringing to most of us, brought up inside the House of Hits he was exposed to it all. A classically trained musician, versed in newer technologies, M.Will is of his time. Although his music may not be what most people consider traditional hip hop, it most definitely comes from there. Today he got in touch to let me know about his big album give away. So without any question we must post this. We must support the younger generation coming through, especially when they have shown love to us and took a genuine interest in the older generation.
“Its the first day of spring.. Summer is just around the corner! Inspired by my visit to Austin, TX for SXSW, I feel today is a great day to release my music for free for 24 hours. Normally, I price my music at unreasonable prices on my bandcamp because I feel music has an unlimited value. I prefer to personally hand my music to my fans, friends and family. However today is a special day. Updating my bandcamp I’ve realized I have released a total of 10 projects in a 5 year span (2009-2014). My 11th project will be released on my 21st birthday as a subtle ode EP to my “twin” Sun Ra who would have turned 100 on our birthday. I’ll then consider a hiatus and travel while completing my double degree in arts management and ancient history. In the meantime, as I work on finding a home for my music, I want to engage in more creative outlets to distribute my music.”
Today I’m proud to drop this video. My Partner in King of The Beats Records Tha 4orce, Steven Ellington had been talking to me about making a trip to the Midlands to pay me a visit.
The Plan was to watch the Edits for the Film ‘Looking for the Perfect Beat’. Discuss and plan our return trip to NYC to complete the movie. Instead we ended up shooting 3 videos.
The first was a video promo geared towards promoting his radio show. Mind Tha Gap Radio is a monthly show dedicated toward new music only. My part in the show is minimal. I helped plan and design the site . To Motivate and be there spiritually behind the scenes.
The second is a video for the song – Good Guys Never Win taken from the Album Setting Standards the Deluxe Edition, the new vocal version produced and featuring Tha 4orce.
Shot on location in Birmingham City we started out sunrise this morning 01.03.2014 without much of a plan. The only idea we had was to make sure the main character would be walking somewhere. Unfortunately things did not work out to plan, the footage just did not come out to plan. So we went back to our old format of stand and rap infront of the camera. We shot 7 scenes returning back to Redditch to start Editing.
We put together a tidy video, but personally it lacked any spark. I felt it needed another layer and that we need to step our game up.
Thankfully Andy Higgs arrived at my place traveling 150 miles to join us on today’s project. We had a open discussion where I aired where I felt the video needed to go, and what I wanted to do. I had mentioned this to Steven earlier the day before.
Im not a fan of Pharrel Williams but I can not say that I do not really admire his work, vision on his Happy single. The video blew me away. I could see that this was going to be a big thing internet not just for its high spirited lyrics, topic and drum patterns, but the video concept. Bringing people together no matter their race, gender, sexuality, size, age or dancing ability. I could that this was going to be a internet sensation with people, groups all over the world being inspired to shoot their own versions of the song. He has lifted the spirits of the people like no president has ever done. its been a week already and look at how many global covers there are, even northen soul versions of the song.
I wanted to do my own spin on that, but unlike the videos that you see from Japan, Russia, Italy and Australia this would be like the answer record, not a diss version but the opposite to happy, Tha 4orce had written a very personal story, expressing his frustrations that many like us feel, how good guys grinding hard always seem to loose out. Hence the opposite to the Happy song by Pharrel.
Andy Higgs after watching the Pharrel Video at my house for the first time suggested that I sit in the back of his van with the doors open and shoot Stevewalking around. We would get the smooth shot and maybe we will capture some magic. Steve said that we can do 2 takes, that he would rhyme ever other line and that we edit the 2 scenes together. We did one take of him rhyming the lines as we drove around Winyates shooting.
Returning to my house after 30 mins, I started to put a new video together. We got the magic, adding the element of a story or character to the video. Collectively we sat together as I edited the video. I must say Im very pleased with the outcome. Although we are based here, im very proud to have some great and creative people around me.
As I keep telling these guys at this age this is what I love to do, to be and continue being creative is something I strive and enjoy being / doing. In Rakimswords..’I aint not joke’. Thank for your support enjoy our new video, directed by yours truly.
I would like to take the time out firstly to say thank you to the first videographer to contact me and contribute some footage towards the upcoming film ‘KING OF THE BEATS – LOOKING FOR THE PERFECT BEAT’. Julie Schabel hailing from Cleveland was introduced to me by Marlon Williams, one of the main characters in the film. I had put a post up asking for film makers, photographers if they could help by contributing some footage towards the project. Street shots of NYC, Sky Lines and urban symbols and architecture. Marlon recommended that I should get in touch with his friend.
Whilst we was out in NYC last year we didn’t have much time to capture these shots. I thought in preparation for my next and final trip to NYC to shoot for this film this would be a great way of collecting vital footage and also getting people involved at a very grassroots level. For the last 20 so years Ive been plugging away at building a reputation within the hip hop community as a film maker and activist. This is the largest project I have ever taken on. If you measure success on how much money you made then Ive not been very successful. Now into my 40s I can think back to when i was in my early 20s and started making my films and going into NYC shooting. I still feel I have the very same energy and hunger I did back then, but the reality is that time is working against me, so maybe getting a bit of help is not a bad thing.
Hip Hop Culture was always about the underdog to me, that is the story. The one all the odds are stacked up against, but comes out on top. Hence I’m talking about the battle. the challenge I have always faced is that I did everything my self. Im still hungry and I desire to show others that you can take out all these other corporate funded projects through sheer hard work and determination. This is not a funded project, So far its been very organic, funded by my self and those who supported it believing in me so much so they payed their own way to come out to NYC to shoot this film.
I’m very grateful that there are people like Marlon and Julie who can see the bigger picture. Julie her self has been involved in film for some time too. This is what she had to say about her self.
‘I got into music photography in high school when all my friends were in punk bands in Cleveland. I would go to shows with my little cameras (mostly disposable or cheap digital ones I managed to get my hands on) and shoot the shows and my friends at the shows. In college in Chicago I started going to the ghetto house/juke party’s and came up when Cool Kids, Flosstradamus and Kid Sister were doing mad shows and throwing parties. I was really influenced by that but wasn’t really going out to shoot at the time, I just have some shitty cell phone pics of parties at sub-t and Town Hall. I started to take music photography seriously when I went to NYC for CMJ in 2011 where I shot ASAP, Danny Brown, Mr. Muthafuckin eXquire, Main Attrakionz, all artists I continue to work with today. We were all just breaking ground that year and its been cool to see how we all grown in this industry. Now I am shooting videos for artists, working with a few production companies and doing freelance coverage of events and shows related to hip hop and electronic music primarily’.

The Image shows behind the star status, Diamond Drepresents quality and hard work. He is a man that sticks to his roots and is passionate about his craft. When its time to get your hands dirty and get to work Diamond Dis all business.
For almost 2 weeks we was working daily, selecting images and fine tuning. Believe me even though we are oceans apart Diamondwork ethic is very precise and clinical. Brings me back almost 20 years ago after the first Diamond D album dropped. It was the best thing in the world to me then. I saw as a fan of the music this is the mark and standard I need to be at. I wonder If Juice Aleem remembers walking from DJ Sparra’s house to the bust stop in kings Norton. I explained why I think Diamonds music is the pinical , why DITCis where I need to aim for as the Bar. One Day I said I’m gonna work with him. 2o years later its happened. Right now I’m happy.
Perris thought, this should not be intentional by the battalion commander of Pearl's CBD Gummies: Review, Benefits, Side Effects & User Reviews the Eighth Route Army of Huaxia, but Yingjiang and Huaxia have the same enemy, and Huaxia will have a series of needs in the process of fighting the enemy, and at least some of these needs can be transplanted to Eagle On the army of sauce.
Wang Xuexin didn t understand it before, he just thought it was just a slogan, and now he really understands the deep meaning of this sentence.It took the general counsel a while and energy to make reports and persuade.
But after thinking about it, I found that I was habitually substituting modern thinking into this era.freight But after thinking about it, Sun Erwei thought it was acceptable.
Since these equipments are useless in the first place, there is no need to be obsessed with attacking during the day.That guy Shisan brought it from his hometown, what kind of taste should he taste I, Li Yunlong, am a rough man, if I don t taste tea, I know that the things captured from the devils are delicious Chu Yunfei was a little embarrassed, what could he do I can t tell, Li Yunlong is using tea to satirize the Jinsui army who came to Yuncheng after losing the battle.
The opportunity to attack Yuncheng, on the other hand, is that the Eighth Route Army has never had tanks, and a tank unit suddenly appeared, which caught the devils by surprise.Salt lakes can be salted, and they are just like a cash cow.
Although the cadres didn t know that one hundred thousand employees will be reduced in one year , they know that they are likely to be blocked by the devils in the mountains and divided into small areas that cannot be contacted.Another point is that Wang Xuexin believes that it is basically impossible to train troops under the noses of Androvich s advisory group, and it is basically impossible to hide them.
This is the virtue of the stubborn army. It s okay to fight tensely, and there will be fewer internal factional struggles
If the A Comprehensive Guide to THC: Everything You Need to Know war eases a Unlock the Potential: A Comprehensive Guide to Power CBD Gummies little, the struggle will immediately surface.Seeing such a violent rocket shell smashing at the enemy s position, he couldn t help but look back curiously
Then he saw a few cars behind him swish Fires rockets in the direction of the enemy.
It is very difficult to hit even with a sniper scope.In fact, Yuncheng was not attacked by infiltration warfare last time because the devils didn t need it.
If it can melt the iron sheet, it proves that its temperature is high enough Temperature is a truth.Li Yunlong didn t understand, so he took the telegram and asked Zhao Gang I said Lao Zhao, what do Unveiling the Mysteries of Premium Jane CBD Gummies: Benefits, Effects, and Reviews you mean What s the difference between garrison and management Let s guard here with guns.
Anda twenty three stood in front of the Rising Sun Flag, and said to his subordinates worriedly Everyone, what was delivered to you is a new type of spray gun used by the Guan Eighth Route Army Although the devil commander under his seat did not speak, But the facial expressions are a bit weird, the Eighth Route Army actually has Premium CBD Miracle Gro Reviews: Unpacking the Hype and the Reality spray cannons , the focus is still on new types Anda Twenty Three may have seen through their thoughts, so he said sharply Asshole, isn Unveiling the Truth: Plantas CBD Gummies Reviews – Real Customer Insights t the lesson from the fall of Yuncheng not enough If you still underestimate the enemy like you, Yuncheng may be Unlock Your Restful Nights with Power Sleep Gummies: A Natural Gluten-Free Solution lost again, and the imperial army will be in crisis again Yes The subordinates responded one after another, and then carefully flipped through the documents in front of them.
He shook his hands at Wang Xuexin with a look of incredulity on his face Little Dongbei, you are Zhu Bajie bragging and talking big, right There are only a few people in our group now You motherfucker Isn t this going to die Yes, Comrade Wang Performance Anxiety? Ditch the Pills, Embrace the Gummies! Xuexin Zhao Gang next to him also said solemnly after hearing this Besides, Conquering Thanksgiving Stress: Prime CBD Gummies for a Stress-Free Holiday Season we still fought a few battles and traveled all night, but the enemy It s just waiting for A Comprehensive Review of Durao Pearls CBD Gummies: Benefits, Side Effects, and User Experiences work to recharge your energy, let alone go out of the mountainous area to attack the city
This is not the characteristic of our army, it is attacking the other s strengths with its own weaknesses Wang Xuexin took out the map from his pocket, but before he spread it out, he was caught Li Yunlong stopped him.
This is not an artistic exaggeration, but it is a hand to hand weapon favored by veterans in certain situations.Sun Erwei nodded, even a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.
The 92 infantry gun didn Pawsome CBD Reviews: A Comprehensive Guide to Improving Your Pet's Health t dare to fire until the last moment
Fireing can t cause damage to the enemy tank, but it will accidentally injure yourself because the distance is too close, so firing is meaningless.The chief was stunned when he saw the news. He should have thought a long time ago that an airport might not be able to accommodate two hundred planes.
As the situation ebbs and flows, the devils troops and fuel consumption in China will be even greater, and the situation will become more severe.Haraguchi Chie understood that in this kind of Navigating the Canna Culture: A Comprehensive Guide to CBD Products and Reviews close range tank battle in an alley, if the target could Prime CBD Gummies: A Detailed Review not be destroyed immediately, the one that would be destroyed would be one s own tank and even cause a complete collapse.
The reason is very simple. Chongqing does not trust the empire that never sets the sun.Although the Eighth Route Army is numerous and powerful, the Jinsui Army is familiar with the geography , In addition, Performance CBD Gummies: A Comprehensive Review of the Products Efficacy and Safety the quality of the 358th regiment is not bad, and there is artillery coordination.
Isn t Ying Jiang stupid Li Yunlong laughed hehe and said, It s five million dollars He took a sip from the wine bowl and shouted proudly Brother Chu, you don t know, don t mention how happy it is.The problem is that the border area currency is poor in paper quality and easy to make, and it will change from new currency to old currency soon after circulation.
If there is no oil, the planes and tanks will not be able to move I don t know much about the outside world, so problems in various aspects are emerging one after plus gummies cbd the ultimate solution for a healthier happier you another.So Wang Xuexin was Prime Sunshine CBD Reviews: A Comprehensive Guide to the Benefits and Effectiveness of Their Products a little puzzled, how could Mao Xiong mix these tanks together to fight
Apart from other things, the speed difference is so big, how can they work together How to keep pace when charging How to form formation when chasing the enemy Isn t this a joke So the world defines Mao Xiong at this time as a country that can t fight.
The movement of the independent regiment was faster than Naoka Murano had imagined.Before the Jinsui Army entered Yuncheng, they used food and so on for each city gate This time
After saying that, Li Yunlong stopped talking, and just looked at Chu Yunfei with a hehe smile.
Apart from other things, he and the Jinsui Army don t have to run away like bereaved dogs now.The tank ran up and down on the car, and sometimes fell suddenly because the car was crushed.
For example, there were such problems in the breakout and Yunjing City.Ying Jiang should have expected this result a long time ago.
In short, we are trying to slow down This is what we think of The chief nodded again and again During this time, the chief of staff and I have been thinking about establishing an armed work similar to a reconnaissance company behind enemy lines In other words, the guerrillas in the enemy occupied areas are organized and armed, Unveiling the Truth: A Comprehensive Review of Performance CBD Gummies and the elite soldiers of several villages are gathered together to train them into a team that can fight and hide, and attack the enemy s logistics supplies at the right time This is actually also true.
This was actually what Yan Laoxi had in mind. Back then, Yan Laoxi didn t know that the Eighth Route Army was willing to give up the entire Yuncheng to the Jinsui Army in the hope of pushing the Jinsui Army to the front However, on the one hand, Yan Laoxi was unable to reject Yuncheng because of the strategic need to maintain the independence of the Jinsui Army.
The difficulty that the sun never sets lies in that at this time, the inextricable fight with Hans requires the help of Ying Jiang, and you can t openly turn against Ying Jiang, you can only stumbling in the dark.Wang Xuexin would not be so stupid as to put himself in danger just to save a few bullets.
Without a stable supply of ammunition, it will definitely not work.Other things are fine. If the bullet machine fails, it will be fatal.
Wang Chonglou ranked second on the star list. Now there is a good show to watch, it is a fight between dragons and tigers.The battle ahead is very terrifying. He Yunxiao is a member of the crane clan, and his body is very fast.
Elder Yuan said, Junior Brother Tianshui, within 5 days, you have to recover to your peak and fight a life and death battle, what How can it be Five days Elder Tianshui was stunned, didn t you refuse Elder Yuan shook his head, unable to refuse.coming. The people on Shenmeng s side breathed a sigh of relief, and Nalanliang also smiled.
After two and a half years, the terrifying aura in front finally disappeared slowly.Lin Xuan alone shocked the heroes of the Dragon Palace and shocked countless people.
Soon he entered the practice room, sat down cross legged, first restored his strength to its peak, and then he entered the mysterious world inside his body.He really couldn t believe that a great sage could turn into such a miserable state.
cut A sword cut out, and the opponent s Demon Slaying Saber.How dare I fight against him What Huo Ling er was dumbfounded, and the people of the blue tribe were even more stunned.
Sweat dripped from Lin Xuan s forehead. To be honest, such a long period of continuous reincarnation power was a huge drain on him, but he felt it was worth it , This time, his celestial pupils became stronger again.Lin Xuan also stopped. He had crushed 24 golden lions and obtained 24 rays of light, which were integrated into his body, increasing his strength.
How is the situation Everyone was extremely nervous, even the strong man who killed the temple, the blood killed emperor and others were all curious expectations.According to the rules of Daozong, no killers are allowed in the sparring.
As he spoke, he stretched out two fingers and touched Lin Xuan s eyebrows.They stared at the spirit dragon, kept roaring, and killed it at the same time.
The people of the undead clan frowned tightly, Yama of the ten halls, what do you mean Do you want to help this kid King Qin Guang said in a cold voice, we are entrusted by others to protect Mr.In a few situations, the people of the Pulsatilla family were even more stunned.
Lin Xuan sneered, you didn t even ask about the situation before, you just wanted to suppress me, how can you make me believe you Either swear, or this secret, I m Unveiling the Power of 300mg Power CBD Gummies: Worth the Hype? going to auction it off.In his eyes, a piercing brilliance also appeared, and he killed him directly.
There was a sound of exclamation, and even Lan Zeyu kept nodding, because she found that the strength of these two people was indeed stronger than her, and she deserved the loss.The prince is crowned king Once successful, the Dragon Prince will be the second top talent to become king.
Lin Xuan sneered, no strength You think too highly of yourself.The two beams of light, transformed by the horns of the dragon, were like peerless sharp weapons, tearing apart everything and killing Lin Xuan s heart and head.
When the Mad God falls, Peak 8 CBD Gummies: Are They Effective for Pain and Wellness in 2025? Lin Xuan must have no backer.No wonder he is called the young emperor. If he wanted to fight against such an enemy before, he would have to go all out, and he might even fall into a very dangerous situation, but it is a pity that now he is different from before.
Fellow Daoist Xiao is talking about how to divide the money and signing the devil soul contract Lin Haoming asked following his meaning.It s my concubine s negligence. If fellow daoists don t dislike my willow appearance.
Good wine Chen Yayue couldn t help shouting out as she felt the taste of the fine wine.After getting the box, he didn t even look at it and put it in the storage Among the object bracelets.
It looks like it might collapse at any time. The previous Bi Qi put an absolutely terrifying pressure on Lin Haoming, but now, under the influence of the Tonghui Pearl, Bi Qi s cultivation has plummeted, and she is no longer far behind her, and she may be completely wiped out at any time.The bloody rosette can be regarded as the most valuable defense in Lin Haoming s hands, and it played a strong role in the strong wind before.
I even thought that your Excellency was greedy for her beauty.Halfway up the mountain, you can still see a small piece of spiritual fields, planted with various high quality spiritual valleys, and some caves can be seen in the distance, which shows that there are people living in this place.
This time standing in front of Lin Haoming was a person completely wrapped in a black robe.Run away quickly. Chasing Seeing Lin Haoming fleeing, the others immediately chased after him, but Wang Zhihan did not move.
The reason why Qiu Yulan kept his hand was because he didn t want to forge a death feud as soon as he came to the Izumo Continent.After all, Lin Haoming would appear on the list to help Falun Temple, which naturally showed that he had enough strength to fight against the existence of the Nascent Soul Dzogchen.
Because Lin Haoming had been taken away by Yan Yang all the time, his injuries recovered a little after these days, at least he had already flown by himself after leaving that place.Ten million Lin Haoming quoted again without blinking an eye.
Fu Yurong s eyes were also subconsciously cast aside immediately, not daring to look any further, lest she be dissatisfied with this beautiful woman whose cultivation base is obviously much higher than her own.In my current situation, it is not easy to catch up with my ex Brother Lin By the way, you are most jealous that you have gone back to her, is she okay Lin Haoming found out.
He always felt that this woman was narrow minded, and subconsciously said, Don t worry, I will Penguin CBD Gummies: A Busy Professional's Guide to Reducing Stress and Supporting Sleep be the flower protector this time Seeing that Lin Haoming really wanted to do something with him, Originally, he did not intend to really recruit Lin Haoming, but Yan Bucheng followed suit and said Plant Med CBD Gummies: Benefits, Reviews, and Uses Teacher Sun, Chief Zhou, Chief Feng, Chief Zhu, you deal with Lin Haoming, Chief Qian Tan, and Chief Tan Zheng, and arrest them together with me.
Daoist friend s illusion magic is quite mysterious.Bao s previous owner the devil said coldly. No, you are definitely not the old master, you are his soul.
To be continued. The fastest update Lin Haoming A Comprehensive Guide to Better Rest with Cannabis did not see any acquaintances here, but found that among the few people gathered in the hall at this time, there was a monk wearing a bamboo hat and a large black robe.There will always be a chance if you spend a few hundred years more.
Cheng Yueyao was quite surprised when she heard this, and at the same time she was glad that she didn t go down, otherwise, with her third level Nascent Soul stage cultivation, she might have been beheaded by that demon in just one encounter.Qianqiu Mountain Lin Haoming felt very strange after hearing this.
Qiu Yulan stretched out a jade finger, pointing it seemingly lightly and continuously, and in every direction that was touched by it, the golden light will shine in an instant, and golden flying swords will appear in an instant.
