Go Uptown by Jay Wise and Ace Gutta

Here is a fresh New York head banger song from Jay Wise and Ace Gutta. They're from Washington Heights, so they're proud from being there, but it's a pretty cool song. The piano keys in the beat makes it fun and I love the bass drum used in it. It's a short song, but I think you can give it a listen. To listen and/or download it, click here.

March Madness Sale

Before the March Madness tournament starts, enjoy the sale that's going on now. 50% off all the apparel for the rest of the month isn't too shabby if you ask me, but that's just me. Pick up some Branded Baron and you'll soon be dressed no less than Stunningly Fresh.

Addicted 2 Sneakers 12/22/12

On Saturday December 22, there's an event that is sure to be interesting, Addicted 2 Sneakers Sneaker Expo. As some of you may know, I participated in their first event this past June which was cool, but now it should definitely be much larger. First, it's now at the Palisades Mall in Rockland County, which  is supposedly the 10th biggest mall on the East Coast. Even if it's not, it's a big mall and you can get more of your last minute Christmas shopping after the event. The event is located on the 4th floor inside the comedy club, Levity Live. I was shocked they had it there, but it's a nice place and hopefully after a good day I'll kick back and watch the headliner for that evening tell some jokes. This event should attract a much larger amount of people this time around and I'm looking forward to this event. Who knows who'll stop by and what will be there, but it's going to be an awesome event. I hope to see you there.

Gamer 2.0 & Hawk shirts available

If you didn't know Gamer 2.0 & the new "Hawk" design is out for sale. Both are SUPER limited and some sizes are already sold out in the Gamer 2.0 shirts. For those that don't know, Gamer 2.0 is the second version of this design when Branded Baron first started, but it now has a few new tweaks. 

If you're wondering why I brought it back, well I'll tell you. I've been debating about bringing this design back for sometime and I decided it was a cool design that some new fans of the brand did not get a chance to see or purchase in the beginning. I slowly brought it back with the stickers and now the shirt. I released sneak peek on instagram (follow @brandedbaron on instagram) and it helped me with a decision that I was leaning to in printing this. 

Another design I was releasing little pictures through instagram was the "Hawk". I was just having fun one summer day and BAM, out came this design. I liked the yellows and browns, especially since it fits the fall season. Let's be fly and what is cool, a hawk, a predator looking for its prey. If you're on the lookout for something fresh and new, well this design fits it. 

I wanted to keep this very limited and let those who want it to pick one up while it's available, because it'll add more value to their purchase. I want to provide that extra awesomeness and these definitely will.

F-ing Awesome Music video by Jay Wise

What's going on?! I want to share this awesome music video with you all. The homie Jay Wise worked on this song and had a cool music video that compliments his style very well. Here's a little tidbit, the "F-ing Awesome" tees you see were printed by Branded Baron. Due to all the "f bombs" this song isn't suitable for work, so I wouldn't blast it. Enjoy.

Branded Baron Summer photoshoot behind the scenes

Oh yea! New stuff indeed! Here's a little video of what occurred at the photo shoot for this latest release. It has a lot of character with it's randomness and the posing. When I have photo shoots, they need to be fun and I think this one probably had a ton of jokes and funny stories that made the pictures come out great. From the minute we were all in the same car heading to a location to shoot to afterwards where we had some delicious pizza, it was good times. The photos you see in the video and the ones you see for sale are only a couple of a bunch that were taken. This release is more of cool fun side compared to my last Branded Baron release which had a bit of a darker tone. It's summer and we need to have a great time more than ever since the weather is so nice. I'd like to thank Jay Wise and Josh Craig for posing and Mister Lee Digital for consistently killing the photos that he takes. Take a look at the video and spread it around along with the link to where you can buy the new shirts.

Allen E "Stellar Living" Music Video

The homie Allen E released a small little video for what is his "single" for his new project. The song is cool, but I'm not sure about a single, but maybe because I'm thinking of commercial music which isn't fair for someone who's putting in work to create art. Either way this is a taste of what's to come, so check it out, because you may like it.

Jay Wise DTF Radio Interview & Freestyle

As you know I'm cool with rapper Jay Wise and here's an interview he had recently. You see the shirts that I printed up for him  (Branded Baron Printing.com is coming soon, but you can contact through e-mail if you're looking for shirts). Enjoy the freestyle he performs at the end. Also, the song at the beginning is going to be a ridiculously fun music video, which is going to be awesome. I will blog about the details and the behind the scenes when that info is ready.

Jay Wise feat. Chaos - Higher Music Video

Check out this awesome new Jay Wise music video featuring his partner in rhyme Chaos. I personally think this is probably his best or one of his best music videos. It's also a pretty cool song and not your typical hip hop song. Watch it and you can see a couple Branded Baron tees being worn in the video too.

XV - U.F.C. Music Video

Now I learned about hip hop artist XV for awhile, but mostly through Jay Wise. He has some good songs and I've become a fan. This particular song which he recorded a music video is one of my favorite songs off his recent mixtape "Zero Heroes". The video is okay, but I think the song is fun and has a hard beat. Enjoy this Music Monday song.

Tana feat. Baiyu "Live in the past"

Here's a song for you all to listen and download by Tana. The beat has a chill, soul, reminisce feel to it and maybe that's why the song is called "Live in the past." The chorus is done by Baiyu and she definitely holds it down when Tana finishes doing his thing. I say listen to it, because you may just vibe to this. I'm not sure when Tana's project is going to be released, but I'm sure I'll let you know, but follow him on twitter at http://twitter.com/#!/followmetana

Corp Cartel - "Do You Want Me" Music Video

Happy Friday! I have a wonderful treat for you and it is the music video of the Corp Cartel's song "Do You Want Me". Now if you have been a Branded Baron supporter for awhile, you would know that I was at this video shoot that happened back in February 2010. Why is it released now? Well there are various rumors flying around like Jay-Z caught whim of this video and wanted to wait until it was the right time before he cosigned the Corp Cartel to they were trying to release it as a 3D video. Either or, the point is, the video is out! You can see Branded Baron apparel in the video and you can see myself in it as well alongside Allen Ez and Tony Bregga and everyone else.

Honestly, I always thought this was one of their strong songs and is a fun song. I personally like how it came out and think it look stunningly fresh. If you want to see the behind the scenes you can view the First Part here and the second part here.
