elZhi - Blue Widow [Music Video]

I'm not sure if you're as excited as I am that Elzhi's new LP The Weatherman is on its way, but you should definitely do yourself a favor and hit play on his new video "Blue Widow." Check out the Donavon Glover directed visuals below, and click HERE to check if the Elmatic emcee will be stopping through your city this month. I saw him last summer at A3C and I'd pay to see him perform anywhere.

New Music: Phonte x Elzhi: Not Here Anymore

Yesterday, I read Phonte tweet that he was dropping a new song at midnight. What did I do? Fall asleep...

I have loved Phonte's music since I first popped in Little Brother's "The Minstrel Show" in my bedroom.  After that, it was over; I educated myself on all of their albums and eventually became a Foreign Exchange stan.  "Charity Starts At Home," however, will be the first solo effort from Phontigallo and it will be dropping on 9.27.  Sounds like a great day for North Carolina music.

Listen/ Download "Not Here Anymore" here or below.
