I know, I know… I released this song during my Rest Stop Series a few months back. While shooting a video for my song “Applaud”, we had given the girls that were invited to be in the video the back section of the location to get ready for shooting. Ali was being “house DJ” that day as he always is and so happened to be playing my Rest Stop mix. “Silent Beauty” came on and the girls there really enjoyed the vibe of the song. Ali came over to me and said that we should go ahead and shoot a little video for it because the song needs a visual. I thought it was a great idea because it was random and pretty much a case of “using what you have on hand”. I had an idea to do it in front of the green screen with Man-Man on the drums. The funny thing about it was that since Man-Man is a true drummer, he was playing so LOUD that I could barely hear the song during playback lol haha good times…
The DMV native combines the three entries in his Rest Stop series into one collection, and adds a few new tracks for your pleasure. Tracklist and link down bottom.
Sit back and check out this smooth joint properly titled “Purple”. As soon as you hear the drop, you (as a HIP HOP FAN) should know whats up – if you’re over 21+ lol. I touch on a topic that always bother me now that I’m older. My cousin Demetrius being locked up. He been locked up since I was 2, but I basically grew up seeing him every cpl months or so. As I got older, I started to understand what was really going on, and now that I’ve come this far and he’s reaching the end of his term – I’m steady praying that the Probation Committee gives him back his life.
The good folks at Kevin Nottingham and DJ Booth bring the latest project from the DMV’s Marky, a quickstrike EP of original cuts and rehashes. Tracklist and link down bottom.
SRC/Universal Records’ very own Marky speaks to Good*Fella Radio about his influences, Go Go bands in D.C., making music, Rhyming with Big Daddy Kane, Studio 43 and what the future holds for him.
This is my 2nd video that I’ve ever done lol. The first was “Sheila,” and now “Louis Squares.” I hope y’all enjoy this here. Dre of ABB Videos shot it for me, and man what a journey we had rippin and runnin around town. Very cool, and very smooth is the overall feeling I get from the song and video. Thanks again for continuing to listen..
