Ugly Heroes – This World [Audio x Download]

The Ugly Heroes are back with the first single off their upcoming LP, “Everything In Between”, which is due out on June 24. Pre-order the album here and stream or download “This World” below. Few things are more ugly or heroic than telling the truth. Life is often bleak, brutal, and over all too swiftly. Leaders are corrupt. Job prospects are limited. Cigarettes and shots of gin rarely lead to a peaceful finish. But between the lunacy and squalor, there exists those who make it all worthwhile: family, friends, and ruthlessly honest artists who remind you that you aren’t alone, shedding light on those dark nights of the soul. As Michigan’s anti-Surgeon General, Red Pill quips: “We may not be the heroes this world needs, we’re definitely not the heroes this world wants, but at least we’re here.” His partners in Ugly Heroes are Chicago MC Verbal Kent, and Detroit producer Apollo Brown. Their sophomore Mello Music Group release, Everything In Between, offers diamonds of wisdom amidst the existential dumpster fire. Everything In Between by Ugly Heroes

Verbal Kent feat. Beth Stelling – Feel The Power [Video]

Step into the awkward genius of Verbal Kent’s mind memory machine as comedian Beth Stelling gets a complete look at a group of Chicago friends tripping on acid, enjoying nitric, drinking and smoking, all from the inside of Verbal Kent’s perspective. Director Peter Stepnoski captures all the oddity and charisma of Big VK on this ambitious visual for “Feel The Power” from Verbal Kent’s newest album “Anesthesia.” Verbal Kent says: “So, “Feel the Power” is a collection of stories presented in a sort of montage form, based on my life when I was a “younger” dude. We’ve all been “younger.” Growing up in Chicago, hanging out with good friends, trying stuff. Being ourselves, sort of finding our way. When discussing a video concept for the song, Peter, the director and I realized a great way to flash back and take viewers into my memories, was to literally do just that. In the video, Our main character played by comedian Beth Stelling is offered a tour of my mind and a look into a time of my life where I felt invincible. I wasn’t – but luckily I made it out just bibildy blurb deripdygshsb.”

Grammy Award winning producer 9th Wonder lays his classic soul stirring production down for Verbal’s vocal foundation that plays like an everyman’s introspective drive through the city.
