Awesome stop-motion video from Harper Rose for Jay Electra’s “Candy Man”. This is not an official music video, but it is really dope nonetheless so check it out!
Preview for the music video for Jay Electronica’s hit, “Exhibit A”. I don’t get how anyone could be sleeping on this cat. Look out for the full video, along with “Act II: Patents of Nobility” coming soon.
Jay Electronica is an up-and-coming emcee and producer from New Orleans. He is widely praised for his lyrical style and music which sometimes use samples from film soundtracks, such as “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind”. Although he hasn’t released a full-length album, his library of songs is already growing, with some of his most popular songs being “Act 1: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (The Pledge)”“, “Exhibit A” and “Exhibit C”. Active in large online communities, Jay somehow seems to stay below the radar while still staying on everyones minds. There are a number of projects with his name attached to them such as a 9th Wonder collabo called “Big Brother”, as well as music with Just Blaze, Guilty Simpson and more. If you are sleeping on this cat, you are missing out tremendously.
Here’s a little hip-hop quotable from the man himself, from the track Exibit A:
I spit that, wonder rhymer shit, me and my conglomerates /
shall remain anonymous, caught up in the finest shit /
get that type of media coverage Obama get /
spit that Kurt Vonnegut, that blow your brain, Kurt Cobain, that Nirvana shit/
who gone bring the game back? who gone spit that Remo on the train tracks?
that gold rope, that 5 finger ring rap/
runnin with my same pack, you can find the Christ
where the lepers and the lames at.
Look out for more from Jay Electronica coming very soon. Act II is due to drop any day!

I posted this original track awhile back in decent quality, then the full quality came out and I could have sworn I posted it but I can’t find it, so here is a remix to the absolutely stellar original of Jay Electronica’s “Exhibit C“. Nas’ verse comes in perfectly, and it all actually works together really well. This remix is by a dude by the name of Hasan Insane. It’s waaay too nice how he flipped the same sample for a different use. Check this out!
