Tonedeff -Glutton EP

For those that do not know, I've been a fan of Tonedeff and the whole Qn5 Music squad for over ten years. I'm a fan and I know some of my friends have been annoyed by me trying to put them on to them. Some of them enjoyed them and their live performances, while others just heard them whenever I played it. If you're a fan of quality good music then I will forward you to it. Tonedeff started off as a hip hop artist and grown into a full musician. The reason I say that is he makes music of different genres, adopting all of them for his own pleasure. 

Yes, he raps, but it's not that he just creates hip hop, especially with his latest project. His newest EP, "GLUTTON", is the newest Tonedeff project in 8 years. His sound is completely different compared to his debut album Archetype. This EP has more dance/electronic tracks with a more adult theme. I tweeted that his song "Filthy" is the XXX version of "Pervert". As much as a fan favorite Pervert is, this should definitely knock the boots off people who listen to this with it's sexually charged lyrics and it's porn vibrating bass beat. "Centerfold" is probably my favorite song, which has inspired me to work more on my more pin up illustrations. 

The music has substance and you should listen to it over and over. You can listen to it for free on his bandcamp or you can make a donation this an artist who has put his time to make quality music. This project is 1/4 of his full album entitled "Polymer".  It combines all the EPs that will be released as 1 full album with other goodies. You can purchase that here

If you ever wonder one of the influences to provide you with quality and awesome products, Qn5 music is one of them.

Oh, in case you haven't see Tonedeff with his own Branded Baron tee, here you go.




Stay no less than Stunningly Fresh,

Branded Baron FRESH Coast sponsored artist Okwerdz w/ music featuring Mistah Fab, Lush One, & Slug from Atmosphere



"I'm going, going, back, back to Cali Cali" The West Coast or as the hip hop scene over there refers to it "Fresh Coast" is definitely different from the East Coast. It's cool there and I'm not saying it's not cool over here, because I love New York City, they're on two different levels of cool. Cali has definitely shown Branded Baron love and we have nothing but love for the people in California as well. It definitely appropriate to sponsor a rapper from the West Coast. Underground/Indie rapper "Okwerdz" hails from Stockon and is a pretty good rapper that kills it on the battle scene and makes good music. The Source Magazine gave him the "Unsigned Hype" title in March '09 and that's pretty big, since it recognizes very talented rappers. Biggie and Eminem are just two of the many people given that title. He's worked with many people from Kool G Rap, Techn9ne, Chino XL, Mistah Fab, and Slug from Atmosphere just to name a few. He's had mixtapes hosted by Dj Green Lantern and Big Mike and he tours all over the world. Okwerdz has been is a very unique rapper and I would definitely check his music out. He has a new mixtape called "The Offseason", which you can download off iTunes. Okwerdz is a cool down to earth dude that knows how to do his thing. Expect to see him rocking some Branded Baron gear in pictures and videos.

He hooked us up with a pretty good song for everyone to download. The song is called "Different Class" featuring Mistah Fab, Lush One, and Slug from Atmosphere. This song is one song of many off the cd "Fresh Coast: Non Perishables Volume 2", which features other west coast emcees.

Okwerdz's new mixtape. He has a song called "Shoe Check" that reminds me a little bit of Jay Wise's "Sneakerhead". Do I see these two working on a song in the future? Jay Wise worked with one of Techn9ne's producers, Seven and Okwerdz worked with Techn9ne and they're both sponsored by Branded Baron. hmmm? Sounds like it could work.
