In this episode, Dilated Peoples and World Famous Beat Junkies member DJ Babu talks about his love of country western music and hitting up flea markets in Brazil with Cut Chemist and J. Rocc.
Evidence and Jason Goldwatch are no strangers. Goldwatch’s work with mainstream and independent artists alone speaks for itself, including Ev’s debut song and video on Rhymesayers, “To Be Continued”.
This time around, the duo took an approach with less rollercoasters and more scenery. JG followed EV all around his hometown of Venice Beach, California all day while he shot pictures for his now infamous Instagram account.
Fans at a hip-hop show can always count on an emcee instructing everyone to “throw your hands up high!” Whether it’s a backpacker or trap-rapper, the command to get your get your Hands High is the universal call for crowd participation. So it’s only right that The Seed (comprised of Kahlee and Uptown Swuite) enlist Rakaa of the legendary Dilated Peoples to describe the arsenal they utilize when performing. A DJBooth world premiere, produced by Adikt 1, Hands High is a smooth and groovy horns-driven track where all three emcees take turns showing just how live they can get. Hands High is a loosie, it doesn’t appear to attached to any larger project, but that shouldn’t stop emcees from taking notes as The Seed and Rakaa provide a dope guide on how to properly rock a crowd.

Net proceeds from the album will go to Roc Raida’s family.
