Smoke DZA & Harry Fraud Remember Sean Price [Video]

Sean Price was a dolo rapper through and through. He dodged the mainstream machine and stuck to his convictions with Duck Down Records, Boot Camp Clik, and his family and friends in Brownsville, Brooklyn, which earned him even more respect as an independent artist. That being said, if you were on his good side, it was nothing but love. Rappers the likes of Mac Miller, Vic Spencer, Sketch McGuiney, and more have the distinction of being the “couple of new n*ggas” that Sean called friend, and Smoke DZA and Harry Fraud can count themselves on that list, too. Watch our interview where they talk about their earliest memories of Sean Price.

Rhythm Roulette w/ Erick The Architect [Video]

Ask and you shall receive: Erick “The Architect” Elliott joins us on the latest episode of Rhythm Roulette. Those who’ve charted the Flatbush Zombies’ rise over the past four years should be well acquainted with Señor Elliott, who’s doubled as producer and emcee for the enigmatic trio. And we can’t forget to mention his solo efforts prior to joining the crew full-time. From soulful to menacing, he’s a provider of vibes that always seem to elicit the best from whomever he works with. After linking up at Brooklyn’s Human Head Records, we headed back to Erick’s studio, where he carefully excavated his three random selections—Diana Ross and Marvin Gaye’s Diana & Marvin, Amnsety’s Free Your Mind, and Jackson Five’s Dancing Machine—for hidden gems. Although he had to circumvent a few equipment malfunctions, Erick managed to sample a piece of each record, ultimately crafting a smooth instrumental fitting for an extended album outro.
