LRT Music Video - Locution Revolution on DTube!

in #hiphop7 years ago


I know that in many of my posts I have alluded to me rapping and teaching rap and Hip Hop to the youth. I have even participated in the rap challenge (shout out to @rondonson). I figured it was about time to share some of my work on DTube and DSound.

This video has been on youtube, but it needs to be on DTube so it will still be relevant for years to come. We shot it a few years ago and I am very proud of the finished product.

We had some great participation from the community on this one (both the Hip Hop Community and the City). We had a really awesome graffiti writer do up a really large piece for the video (and it serves as the backdrop... there is no way you can miss it). We also had the City of Edmonton donate a train and a driver to us for a half a day as they wanted to help us with our project. This was both unexpected and awesome and elevated our video from amateur to really professional. We also had a ton of people in the scene make cameo's to show us support, which was greatly appreciated by us.

This video was to support our album "Walk Tall" which was a fairly big success in Canada. It sat at #5 in the country on the college radio rap charts, which may not pay well, but is a sign of a well respected release by our peers. We took it and were thrilled to be well received.

I hope it is well received here on DTube and Steemit as well!

Wow, such a cool music video! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for checking it out!

Oh Man! what a throwback for me, I had lots of fun shooting this! Still Fresh after all these years.

I'm seeing more and more hip hop heads on steemit and i cannot be happier about this. I do daily freestyle raps, so I feel you. Good work and thanks for perpetuating a beautiful craft and art. Keep it up!

Great music video!

Good rap, melodious. I like it. Godspeed!

Thank you for checking it out!

Teaching rap and hiphop is a big deal and you are going through it, at the same time it seems fun, teaching people what you love is the best tging ine can do, best of luck for your work

Thanks. It is not always easy, but it usually is. When it is not, it is usually even more rewarding. Thanks.

I am sad that I am late to the party on this one! I upvoted anyway, because this is awesome (and, I think may be part of the project you mentioned to me before?). Loved checking it out!

The party doesn't stop after the money stops flowing in (thank goodness). I am glad you were digging it. Ya, I think I might have mentioned something about a rap video with graffiti collab to you at some point.
