I Know…But I’ll Be Back Soon

I know what you’re thinking. And I know you’ve been checking back often to see what new dopeness I have to feed you. Well, my apologies for not keeping FreshNerd up to date as of late. I’ve been attempting to juggle my side projects, school, and work (yes, I’m a true Jamaican).

I do have some dope interviews and reviews coming but until then check out some of my beat tapes, or some good ‘ol pop production by yours truly if you haven’t yet. Or if you could care less about how awesome I am of a producer, check me out on Twitter for a laugh or two (my Moms thinks I’m funny).

Peace….

FreshBeats: Timmy Rickard – Welcome Back

The homie Timmy sent over a new beat that had my head nodding from start to finish. A unique sample chop and quality drums always wins in my book. $5 to anyone that can name this sample…..ok, I won’t give you $5 but I will think you’re very cool.

FreshPick: Adele – Rolling In The Deep

Adele brings us her first single off of her second album with some studio footage from the recording sessions in Malibu, California. I was expecting a different sound this time around but not blues. It’s definitely a great fit and makes me even more eager for the rest of the album now. Can she top 19?

FreshVid: Kanye West – Runaway (Full Version)

I know I’m dumb late on posting this but I feel like it doesn’t matter. This video received many mixed reviews across the net but all in all this nerd thinks it’s fresh. I respect ‘Ye for taking a risk and doing something different. In this musical climate, release dates aren’t as important as they used to be due to leaks etc. so Kanye has taken the initiative to give people something to talk about and create anticipation. His team is smart and I’ve been saying this since 808′s (see here). I’m done babbling….now give him 35 mins. of your time.

p.s. I will admit his acting is pretty bad, still a dope video though

FreshArt: Joshua Bronaugh – Pin

“Websites are the worst ways to look at paintings. Digital images are compressed, have poor color, have no sense of scale and simply do not glow like paint does. I would rather a person see one of my paintings through a window from across the street in the rain than have him see anything I have ever made online.“ – Joshua B.

FreshIndie: Signif – Drifting

Shoutout to Signif for shooting over her new vid to my inbox. I know I’m late, but blame it on the flu and school. Definitely feelin’ the vibe on this track, reminds me of ’94. If you haven’t checked out The Transition LP yet, make sure to do so here.
