An extremely gore-filled, NSFW, and ambitious music video coming from Killer Mike on the single “Big Beast,” featuring T.I., Bun B, and El-P as the getaway driver. Look out for a convenience store holdup, a straight razor going through a robbers tongue, zombie strippers, and a pretty aggressive car

A stellar music video for the single Detroit beast Danny Brown dropped back in March. The song itself comes off a bit serious, chronicling Brown’s younger days, but the video has fun with it by featuring this firecracker of a kid. He’s going crazy. He’s bringing the

A wonderfully eccentric music video from Body Parts for the track “Doing Things,” which comes from the band’s 2011 album, On Purpose. Listen here. Ups to director Mike Karnell. It’s an engaging watch from beginning to end.

Some new visuals from Rejjie Snow (a.k.a. Lecs Luther), Crave, and Jesse James on the track “Meddling Loops.”

Death Grips drops a video for the track “Hustle Bones,” which comes from the group’s latest album, the Money Store. While it’s depressing the group cancelled their recent tour, I guess it’s nice to see some confirmation that they’re still together and functioning. Not sure if

“Something In the Sky” is a track from the forthcoming Guapo album, Dark Age, which is a project spearheaded by composer and multi-instrumentalist Daniel O’Sullivan. I’m most familiar with his work with Guapo and Sunn O))), but I know he’s been involved with the last few Ulver

A couple of months ago, electronic producer Romare released an EP titled Meditations on Afrocentrism. Over the course of its five tracks, the EP blended thumping house beats with various African samples, which ranged from tribal chants to clips of speeches and spoken word. One of the release’s highlights,
