Urban Nerd featured in "So Close" by Gang Green Intl

As some of you know the T-Shirt line called Urban Nerd and its been picking up momentum over the last 2 years. It's got a pretty decent presence in the Colorado Hip-hop scene, and has been picking up momentum nationally, so when the offer came my way to get involved with this music video, “I jumped at the chance.” These kind of opportunities don’t come around that often ya know.

Now I posted this video here before when this blog first started, but now i have the clean version, and its actually got a few extra modifications and effects in it so this is definitely the one to peep.. One of the biggest obstacles hip-hop artists in this region faced was lack of unity and way to much "click-beefin & competition". But as some of you have seen, the groups may or may not work with each other but man have ties to urban nerd and that is slowly unifying the scene. It's funny how things work themselves out, if you let it.

Whygee - Chumps in Pink

In the mist of all the "baller-music" that we love soo much in Hiphop right now, many seem to forget what hiphop is really about "beats and lyrics". As I would like to consider myself one of my regions pioneers(meaning i was on the rhyme circuit out here since 2000.. to you little kids) its always refreshing to hear some good old Emcee music every now and then. I really hate how this game has gotten soo far away from its roots, and now over-saturated with "get rich quick-singles and ringtone - rappers". Don't get me wrong.. I'm not hatin, just stating the facts.. remember "denial is a disease yall". If you truly disagree with what I'm saying prove me wrong. I dare you!

But anyway back to this brotha Whygee, never met the dude or even been to any of his shows.. but when I stumbled onto this video, it made me feel good about hiphop again. Some may call it "backpacker" or whatever but if thats the case then I'm a backpacker too futher muckers... I like how it rep'd for graf writers and all that. That touched a nerve with me personally since thats the era I came up in when I was living in Los Angeles. I carried a backpack full of markers, mean-streaks and tester cans.. (what I like to call the GOOD OLD DAYS.. )So for all you hiphop purists out there that still appreciate B-Boy music.. Get a dose of Whygee.. and keep the hope alive... HIP HOP Aint Dead!!!... its just on vacation while corporate America tries to dabble with "commercialized drug-dealers and stripper tunes.... I like that music too you guys don't trip, Im just telling it like it is..

The only thing missing from this video is an urban-nerd tee but thats just my opinion.. maybe we'll work that out in the future.. Get at me Whygee
