Uptown XO (of Diamond District) - Finding My Way (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

Director's Statement: "The video for "Finding My Way" takes cues from the boom bap style production of the track and imagines Uptown XO as two sides of the same young man, coming of age during the mid-nineties in Washington D.C. During the first verse XO takes on the persona of a street minded hustler, spending time in alleyways, shady housing, and rooftops. While for the second verse he portrays the role of a government insider, working to enact change through the political system on Capitol Hill. These twin lifestyles echo the flip side of the same mindset, much like the dichotomy of the District itself." Mp3: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/col... CD: http://www.mellomusicgroup.com/collec... Vinyl: http://www.mellomusicgroup.com/collec... Diamond District emcee Uptown XO releases the video version of his first single "Finding My Way" from the album "Colour de Grey". A.B. The Pro produces, adding a percussive funk loop to XO's introspective lyrical mood. XO explores all he's been through - from childhood evictions and lost memories, to the battle for his soul: "Lost erything in life and had to start all over / I had to cope with the pain, now I can't stay sober." As always a picturesque tour of Washington DC from Uptown XO. Twitter: http://twitter.com/uptownxo Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Uptown...

VIDEO: Smoke and Mirrors Webseries: Episode 1

funny perspective on dating from the hometeam point of view Too often in love, people are not straight shooters. Enough of the time people don't simply lay their cards on the table and let the other make an educated decision. With no "carfax" you are left to take people based on what's in front of you but that's not always their real selves. It's an optical illusion. "Smoke and Mirrors" centers around the life of newly single, filmmaker Sonny Richard, who must reacclimate himself to the complexities of male and female relationships, just when he thought he had it all figured out.
