Music Video – Texas A-V-E

Here’s the first music video from “Slow Nights. Fast Food.” This song is called “Texas A-V-E” and if you’ve ever lived in Bryan/College Station, you know how important this road is. Ever since I was old enough to drive I’ve loved cruising Texas Avenue. Not because there are a bunch of hot spots popping off all the time, but because it’s one long, main drag between the twin cities. It makes for a simple drive and I always use it as an excuse to get out of the apartment when I’m going stir crazy, or just to clear my mind if needed. This song has a similar sound to “Welcome to the Presentation” only I’m shouting out streets this time instead of businesses. I’ve always loved making songs about the experience of living in B/CS and I’m so proud of how this one turned out. I was especially happy with how well the High School and College names came together in the third verse.

I had this track ready to put on “Perseverance,” but I did a fan-vote for track selection on that album and this one wasn’t picked. Huge thanks to G-Bird for driving while I got footage from the passenger window, and SHELLZ for filming me during my verses. I wish we had picked a less humid night to roll with the windows down! Editing this vid was a beast. I accidentally shot WAY too much footage and spent two days trying to condense the best stuff into 4 minutes. There are a ton of other signs/places I could’ve thrown in if there was room. This one is for my fellow 979ers! If you cruise Texas Avenue then I hope you’ll blast this from your speakers while you do it!

Music Video – I’m Around

This song is from my latest album, Perseverance. I have to admit that this is in my top 3 from the album. The energy of this song is crazy and SHELLZ once again came through like a champ to deliver verses I honestly had trouble competing with. It seems like every time me and him team up its certain to be a banger. Originally my plan was to repeat my part of the hook twice and that would be the whole chorus. However, once SHELLZ laid his vocals there was an ad-lib portion where he was just screwing around saying the “I’ma-ruh I’ma-ruh” part. It was too good to chop out so I threw it in the hook and BAM, pure gold. Me and him have been making music together for over 10 years now. 10 YEARS. Been rapping together since high school. So this song was especially fitting for both of us in the fact that neither of us are willing to give up the music and we will always be around when everyone else is resigning.

The video was a blast to shoot. Another rapper we’ve been making jams with for over a decade, Boss Taylor (the third guy you see in this video), helped us out by working the camera for a lot of these shots. We’re all Bryan High alumni so when we saw the Viking wall we knew we had to take advantage of that location. The other shots were done at Tanglewood Park in Bryan and Blinn College parking lot. My favorite shot is the one of me and SHELLZ back-to-back as the camera cruises around us. We’ve had eachother’s backs in this rap game for so long now and that shot really put that into visual form.

I hope all of you love this one as much as I do! If you like it then please buy the song on iTunes or Amazon and share this video with your friends.
