"3 Freaks" Video - DJ Shadow, Keak Da Sneak, Turf Talk + Some Other Random Shit
So the video for "3 Freaks" is finally done and it looks great as you will see when you watch it below. Shadow has a big push behind him so there's no cheapo shit here. The company behind the video is Half-White Productions based out of Southern California and they also did the "Super Hyphy" video. I was just contacted by them and was told that they will have the "3 Freaks" video up at their site shortly in much better quality than what you get with YouTube The vid is up at their site. You can also watch the "Super Hyphy" video at their site. "3 Freaks" is gonna be on DJ Shadow's still untitled upcoming album which is sure to be a classic. So far I've found out that album will also have features from Q-Tip, David Banner and Little Brother. You can also see some behind the scenes photos from the "3 Freaks" shoot at DJ Shadow's site.
The Ambassador made the cover of last week's San Francisco Bay Guardian. The article is very good save for a few minor mistakes. If you can't find a print copy you can check it out here.
Also, check out this remix of "Tell Me When To Go" done by Trackademicks. Dude is making big moves and working with a lot of people including Mistah FAB, Balance, J. Stalin, Casual and Lyrics Born. He e-mailed me a bit ago so look for an interview/profile sometime soon.

The E-40 article's spin on recent Bay Area music goes like this; hyphy is safer and more fun and wholesome than your everyday gangster rap. Look, E-40, the man we tell you is the Duke of Hyphy, owns a burger joint.
Whatever, a newspaper of some note (The Guardian is of some note...? Whateva nigga) took the initiative to write a biopsy of the most eminent rap star to hail from the Bay since Tupac. That 3 Freaks video is hella corny. Mickey Finnegan is NOT a good director; I'm digging the theme of staid white people 'popping purple pills and going HYPHY at the sideshow' in Super Hyphy and the ridonkulous storyline of this video, but the shots of keak and turf talk amidst beezies against the wall is shittilly reminiscent of Jay-Z's "Jigga" video with the lens-flare crystals in the background. The "Tell Me When To Go" video, by contrast is, like, a bajillion times better at conveying a giggin'ly interesting image to accompany the hyphiness of the music
Thank you Doxx.
