When i first heard of the track “4th quarter”, i was very interested. I did a whole album centered around football (really wasn’t trying to do a shameless plug lol) and really wanted to hear him bring it. It was a hit. Twiceborn’s “4th quarter” is featured in Higher ground’s record pool as the 18th track for the month of December. I was really feeling the angle that he used, so when i heard that he was making a video for the song-i was waiting on the “game day”. The video is actually directed by Di’Marco “Twiceborn” Baskin and shot by V & B cinema. The concept of the video is hot. Twiceborn is getting his team/the saints ready for the fourth quarter/final days. What i find is the key point to the creativity is the fact that his team, fans and “recruits” all have sanctified minds shirts/jerseys. The key player of this video is the ref. I’m guessing he represented God in the video. I will say this about him....he is the most serious ref i have ever seen in my life!LOL! He really added flavor to the video. The only downside of the video is the stand shots for not having a full audience. However, according to twiceborn, some of the cast couldn’t make it out for the shoot that day. I guess you will make it up on the next video i review from the “4th quarter” project? LOL! On the final note, this really was a great video. Not just because of the concept, but how twiceborn was able to get his own friends and family in the video to help bring fourth his vision. Get that ref to crack a smile! #Spreadthesoup

Need a cd/mixtape/film review?

What's brewing soup troopers? I'm about to start with my new project-chican's choice. This is where i will be reviewing indie artist's cds/mixtapes/films and giving a in depth review. Yes, i will go track by track (or entire movie including credits) and give you a real review. It saddens me that some of the artist that i have spoke with tell me that so many sites charge a arm and a leg for a cd review-which at times is only a three to six sentence review. I go through every song and i rate each one of them. My rating system is simple (yet weird to some who may not know me).

2 spoons down = 1 mic
1 spoon up = 2 mics
2 spoons up = 3 mics
2 spoons and a bowl = 4 mics (classic)

I also will tell you my favorite bar with ever song. I will be fair and honest. I want see all of us make it, so i won't lie to you to make you feel good. I do, however, have some requirements.

1. I will not review albums/mixtapes with explict mateiral. I'm not hating, but i try to keep it positive and promote positive lyrics on my blogs and site.
2. Make sure you have a website(that has all your contact info) or somewhere that i can send your fans. I'm trying to help you out! If i have no where to send the traffic, then it's a red light for exposure for you. Think about that for a second!
3.Make sure you send me everything together and in order. Please don't have me contacting you for anything. If you got link, makes sure you send me the link so i know and can give credit to your producers and so forth.

Now some of you may be asking...Why is he doing this? Well, it's because i'm in the same boat some of you are in and i decided to help shine some light on other artists besides myself. I truly believe in sowing into other people first, before i put all efforts into myself. Also remember i do have a nine to five and i already have some reviews i'm working on now-so be patient! You never know if my review on my blog may get picked up by a website or may be the push to get you to that next level. Don't despise small beginings-i don't and won't to you. So spread this blog and spread the soup.
