Video: No Church in the Wild

Very Kanye-esque music video of the opening track from WTT. Good visuals from the filming in Prague. Question Kanye's darkly humanist undertones all you want, but the man is an icon for music in this era.

Spotlight: The Dean's List

(From XXL)
Reppin’: There are three members of The Dean’s List. Mik Beltran is from Edison, New Jersey and Sonny Shotz and Mendoza are from just outside of Boston, Massachusetts. Mik and Mendoza met in school at Berklee and brought in Sonny, who Mendoza had known in high school, to complete the group. A quick chemistry helped us all develop our sound.

We’d Like to Work With: Bob Dylan, Skrillex, Jay-Z and Kanye West. It’s an eclectic mix, but they all do music with meaning and have a movement behind them. We want to work with artists who have passion behind their music and don’t just do it to do it. That’s what inspires longevity.

Our goal in hip-hop is: To change hip-hop. We don’t want to be the same as anyone else, we want to create our own lane and change the meaning of what hip-hop is. A hip-hop record can have pop or electro elements and still stay true to what the genre’s all about. Hip-Hop was built on changing perceptions and we want to continue that.
