Double Bomb!|Paublo Patrick| Ride On Em w/ Rate| The Interview w/o Rate






Paublo Patrick and I after finishing "The Interview"
Mr. Idgaf dropped a video for his single "Ride On Em" while I see where he was trying to go with the opening of the video, it really didn't convey during the video. I had the pleasure of hanging out with him the day the video was shot and he is a really humble, down to earth, and cool dude. You're everyday street rapper is riding down on someone about their issue and Paublo Patrick delivers that presentation flawlessly in his lyrical content. Though the video could have had a more extended visual concept to accompany the lyrical content it was a good video. The 10 Hunnit movement was definitely present in the video, while I only recognized Teo, I am more than sure that a few more recognizable faces are there. I liked that besides the cliche' club scene with the entourage he had a dressed down outside scene that portrayed a wild, fuck some shit up demeanor. It was cool and showed that unlike how he was first presented dressed in a dope fit that he could turn down the swag and get dirty. I would love if you guys could press play on the latest from Paublo Patrick and check out Paublo Patrick's latest song called "The Interview" featuring Me! The rate and video are below, enjoy!

Spotlight Artist: Five Drexler

Ever wondered what Rap and Hip Hop's illegitimate love child would look like? Meet Five Drexler he's the
forbidden love child and he's here to shake the game up....

St.Petersburg, FL Hip hop, rap producer, artist and writer. Five Drexler was born as David Rollins on March 14,1986 in Ft Myers, FL. Five is a recording artist, and producer absorbed in the hip-hop culture and it shines through his music. 
Raised by his single mother in St Petersburg, FL he started recording at the age of 15. Since he has been featured on numerous mix tapes and dropped his solo album "The Broadcast" (May 2012). There has been no slowing down for the MC, writer, and producer.
 Five is the Co-founder of The Treble Makers, a production team made up of artists and producers. Five and The Treble Makers started making strides to create innovative and popular music. They came together in late 2009 to establish a rare channel of expression, passion, therapy, and release. Five possesses a fearless determination and continues to sacrifice self-interest in pursuit of modern philosophy. The Treble Makers enjoy making music and have years of it ahead of them.
 With a refreshing sound flavored by production from The Treble Makers, Five Drexler with his classic hip hop with a twist of new school rap is an incomparable and refreshing sound all fueled by production from The Treble Makers. He restores the culture with witty lines and meticulous flows that hook the audience immediately. I undoubtedly see nothing but continued momentum and creativity from Five and The Treble Makers as Florida Hip Hop emerges from the ever saturated “dirty south”. Check out my Q & A session below with Five and his extensive discography and videos and links. 



Q & A with Five Drexler


[M$C]: What do you strive to accomplish through your music

[FIVE DREXLER]: Originally it was just an outlet to express myself and something to do for fun. Over the years I’ve realized the power and responsibility that comes with it. I want to reach people, educate and/or entertain.

[M$C]: Is working with a network of artist and producers sometimes a challenge?

[FIVE DREXLER]: It can be, depending on the task and the artists. Haven't had anything too difficult as of yet.

[M$C]: What was your hardest project to complete?

[FIVE DREXLER]: Probably "The Forecast" my new project. Its very thorough and has alot of different styles / sub genres in it. Along with the expectations for better media and marketing, its been the most strenuous project I've made. But definitely worth it, I’m very happy with the results.

[M$C]: Do you consider yourself a stereotypical white rapper?

[FIVE DREXLER]: I don't consider myself a stereotypical rapper at all, let alone a stereotypical white rapper. Although I sometimes do club / high energy songs, the majority of my content is conscious, real life events and deep lyricism.

The Who With The What #TMWFP Review

Well It's been almost a week since I did  a two post entry on ABR. In the midst of  him doing all of that with me, he dropped his mixtape The Man with Faux Pas and for those of you that's like "whoa whats  Fox Past" You're saying it wrong and you should go google it! I first would like to say If you are sleep on this artist you really should lay off the sleeping pills. For godsake I just presented him to you jerks on a silver platter. If you still want to act oblivious to his artisty you haven't checked out #TMWFP. He snapped, he made you think, and without saying it, he dared you to challenge him. It featured " Bruh Man" and " 5 Babies" Both being favorites of mine. It also featured six other dope tracks that showcased  Burnright's uncanny ability to tap dance on the pre frontal cortex of your brain. This was evident with his blunt content, his strong delivery and of course his beats. I don't know whether to call it a mixtape, an EP, or in his words an experiment since he is a Scientist ( I'm convinced). I enjoyed his take on what he likes to call  "Conscious Trap" It was definitely a medley of awakening punchlines and it's production set me the listener in a state of confusion because there was times I wanted to just hit a full Khloe Kardashian twerk but the lyric content wouldn't allow me. I wanted  to know what he was going to say next. I thoughtfully listened and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. I am never disappointed in his artistry and what he puts out. I send well wishes, continued motivation, and success to Alec Burnright and the entire CLPNation family. I have added links to listen and download #TMWFP as well as ABR Spotlight Review I did 6 days ago. Enjoy the goods and make sure you tell him this particular mu'fucka sent you!

Spotlight Artist- The Man With Faux Pas[ ABR]


Mastermind, Scientist, Creative, and Effortless Genius, are all the attributes that come to mind when I think of Alec Burnright. He is ½ of CLP Nation which is a blog platform for other indie artist and mainstream artist. They also showcase technology, and other dope topics. Besides heading a blog site, he is an artist above all else. I first discovered Alec Burnright on one of CLP Nations affiliated artist Charli Funk’s song, Clique.  When I first heard him he was BNyce but I soon found out that BNyce was Alec Burnright. Hence his catchy line… “I use to Bnyce until I learned to Burn Right.” From there on out I have not only supported ABR but the entire CLP Nation movement. He is what should be playing on the radio but because of watered down, mainstream artist; the world according to our society wouldn’t be able to handle his raw and uncut interpretation of how the world really is. He plays upon intelligence well and his subject matter is definitely something that will have you searching google and the library for answers. He doesn’t sugarcoat a thing and is proud to poke back at critics. He recently dropped his rendition of Drake’s Trophies and My God! Can someone please get him on MTV jams with the likes of Common, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, and any other rapper that is actually saying something real? Even though he says what most people are afraid to say about our country or about worldly issues he sometimes switches up his approach by banging out a nice club single. He is definitely someone that should be on heavy rotation on majority of real hip hop and rap listener’s playlist. Did I forget to mention that besides heading a blog and being an artist he is also a dope producer. Alec Burnright has opened for AfroMan, Machine Gun Kelly and Nappy Roots. With CLP Nation rising in numbers he continues to network and grow in the indie-ground scene. He credits inspiration from Buju Banton to A$AP Rocky to your favorite indie artist. He is diverse in his love for music and you never know what he will drop next with his Island roots and his love for dope lyricist like himself. 
When asked who Alec Burnright sounds like, many are often stumped, stating that the sounds of CLP Nation's Jamaican-born, Miami-bred flagship recording artist and producer Alec Burnright are both unique and refreshing.His newest project The Man With Faux Pas #TMWFP drops 3.15.14.
 When you get done here please check out Alec Burnright and his blog site CLPNation.com.

[Q & A with ABR]

1.M$C: I know you use to Bnyce until you learned to Burnright... Why the name change?
ABR: I came up with the name b nyce when I first started rapping. It was simple and sounded cool enough. Over the years though I noticed a lot of B Nyce's and strange variations of it. 2 nyce, d nyce, z nyce, nyce nyce, it just started to feel mad corny and trite. so in an effort to show people I should be taken more seriously, and to have a name I could brand as my own, I took my middle name Alec, and a play on my last name, woodburn... and just ran with that. I had actually planned this before I changed it.

2.M$C:What is your biggest accomplishment to date?
ABR: My biggest accomplishment I'd say is CLP Nation as a whole. I dont know.... everything. I started off making wack beats with my homie, doing shows with my eyes closed, and starting up a stupid blog.... to making crazy futuristic beats, having people hit me up after shows because a friend of there's dropped my name because of my performance, and our blog was recognized by HulkShare and is gaining more traction everyday, plus the team is growing and people see the movement and they want to help it roll. I would definitely say CLP Nation as a whole unit is the biggest accomplishment.

3.M$C:The Man With Faux Pas drops soon... What can listeners expect from this project?
ABR: TMWFP is in 2 words: Conscious Trap. People love trap... they love the bass, they love the busy hi hats. People usually like to hear ignornace on those beats though. Then you have the people that like to hear about world issues and politics and enlightened topics... but usually those types of beats are uninteresting to the masses, and are only appreciated by the 'hard core hip hop heads' .... so what I wanted to do was jump on some trap shit and - of course sprinkle it with a little ignorance here and there - but even more so, sprinkle some intellect on that bitch give some ish you can think about, with a beat you can wild out too.

4.M$C:Being that you were raised in the 305, reside in the 727 and are Jamaican Born how do you balance all the musical influences in your music?
ABR: Growing up, mom dukes always had a cassette in the deck. A-side and B-side full of reggae tunes. I don't know a lot of artists names because they just had mixtapes they probably copped at the flea market but I think that's where I get alot of my rhythm... Especially in the beats I make but it definitely affects my cadence of my flow as well. My first album I ever owned, my auntie gave me... Arrested Development, "3 years....." that album I would say shaped my mind frame to the conscious side of things... but who are we kidding... I like alcohol, pussy, and weed like everybody else on this damn planet so forgive me if I dip into my jar of sin every other couple bars .... So that's where Miami booty scene comes into play thats probably where most of my ratchetness comes from, if any. Uncle Luke and all them. Before 727 it was the 352 though. We were in Gainesville for a minute. definitely had some influences from there as well. Definitely hood influences. So over the years I have been listening to and working with all different types of people and music. Now we end up in the Burg where I'm finally starting to master it all and use them all together in the right ways. Especially being right in between Tampa and the Burg, its great hearing the distinction between the two cities and the artist from both cities.

The Only Show 112213 Review

Last month I had the pleasure of attending The Only Show 11/22/13 sponsored by CLP Nation. The Only Show was a rap showcase/mini concert  that was orchestrated by a group of creative and crazy talented 
emcees. I would describe there flow style or their genre type to be indie rap, underground, or something I like to call knowledge on the fly. Each artist has their own unique style and it shows with their personal style,demeanor, and stage presence. Upon receiving an invite via Facebook for the event months prior I had already peeped the event coming together on my timeline. You could tell the artist were excited and you knew when they were working on something creative. SHOUT OUT! to whomever made those dope ass gold Pyramids. That's a definite souvenir that I've tucked away. Well dang my shout out kinda ruined my story but anyways...  I don't usually venture out too often if the scene isn't something I am interested in or have a curiosity towards but I had been listening or had heard songs from a few of the artist and was pretty excited to check it out live. The Only show was promoted by not only myself but by the countless CLP Nation Fans yes they have real life ye ye ye Wild man call Live Action Fans! And believe me when I say they go so hard! The artists' also pumped major promo on the web as the weeks slowly crept away. Once October turned to November I had already r.s.v.ped to Facebook standards and had further confirmed my attendance by purchasing a ticket to the show. I didn't know what to expect but as the weeks went by and my ticket was personally delivered by one of the  CLP scientist, Alec Burnright(ABR). He further confirmed how awesome the show was going to be. As the week of the show came to an end Friday 11-22-2013 was finally here. Pre show pictures of props popped up a few hours before the show and you could tell time had been spent making them and I can appreciate individuals being creative any day. I was impressed by the artistry of each artist that I got to see. Unfortunately due to my guest being tired from a long days work I had to leave early but was able to catch ABR being super hype, shook hands with the mastermind behind The Seminar, and caught Scott Tanner, SuCoo and Alec Burnright and Dilligaf kill it on stage. From what I saw I was glad that I had attended the event and enjoyed the mix crowd of people. It was refreshing to be in a room full of good vibes and great music. I would not pass up another opportunity to attend another show by CLP Nation or any of the artist that performed. I also would like to bring up  that when I attend shows I am not only listening for new artist to check out, I'm also looking at everything you bring as an artist. I personally think presentation is everything and from the way tickets were given out with the awesome pyramids to the artists' stage presence I was impressed. In school you get a grade for participation and the crowd  all got A's  in participation because the emcees interacted well and got them involved. I think an artist that can control his audience has them under his or her spell and Crowd participation was incredible and the energy that they had reflected whatever artist graced the stage. They were so live and the crowd really responded well to them. The even took place at a venue called The Cycle Lounge. I had been hearing a lot about it so I was glad I was able to check it out as well. I would recommend all of the artist for immediate review because the crafts that they have are definitely dope and underestimated. Below I have listed artist information for each artist and my favorite song from each artist. Enjoy the musical collection of some very dope emcees. Please share this review and check out each artist and CLP Nation for more information.
