A blog written in English about Swedish hiphop!
Henok Achido released his new single “Fly Fresh” last thursday by having a release party at Berns. It’s really a good song and Henok has developed as a lyricist. The beat is signed Filthy, so as you all understand it is a great combination. Henok is signed over at Form One’s record label DLX Entertainment and the record, from which the single is take from, “Almaz Amazing Child” will be released later on.
“Fly Fresh” is now available to download over at Discobelle.
In last post we wrote about Form One’s soon-to-be-released mixtape “A New Season (the prequel mixtape)”. Then we wrote about the track “The City” and now another track from the mixtape has been released. It’s called “Headache” and ofcourse the beat is signed by Astma.
Form One’s sophomore album is currently beeing mastered and he’s working on the finishing touches on the artwork. The album will hopefully be out in a couple of months.
As a warm up for the album Form one and producer Astma will release a mixtape entitled “A New Season (the prequel mixtape)”. The mixtape will mainly concist of new and previously unreleased material. The mixtape will be out in a short while and the first song from the mixtape is called “The City” which is now avalible as a free download.
One new video after another. Seems like everyone is dropping new movies at the moment, but hey – I do not complain! Now it’s the Uppsala duo Afasi & Filthy’s turn. It’s their third single called “Sverigetrotters” from the record “Fläcken” which was released this spring through Pope Records. This one will probably get the same good attention at their last two singles “Glider” and “Jobb“!
The video is directed by Jonathan Kruse (Edinim).
Adam Tensta releases his fourth video – Dopeboy ft. Eboi – today. Tensta, who has opened for Rihanna, Busta Rhymes and Jay Z, has conquered the Scandinavian music scene, rapping in English. Even thou Adam Tensta might not be my cup of tea I have to take my cap off and congratulate for the success. Dopeboy is the latest single from his award winning album “It’s A Tensta Thing” and his wingman Eboi features it. Eboi really shines at this one, and I hope RMH Entertainment will back him up soon exactly like they did with Tensta. But I’m sure they will as soon Adam Tensta’s tour is over.
The same team as before stands behind the production of this gallant video.
Direction: Marcus Lundin
Art Direction/Artwork: Albin Holmqvist
Postproduction: Mats Skoglund & Dennis Nenov
Boomerangfilm AB has done it again. Another great music video, and this time for Petter’s new track “Min Click” feat Kihlen from Snook. This is probably one of the best music videos this year, and I do think Petter resumed it pretty well on his own at his blog some weeks ago:
Det kommer en video nästa vecka och blir den som jag misstänker så har vi en klassiker på G.
