apache(jumponit!)

the other day i had the opportunity to attend the much anticipated show "from the grain" held at the popular atlanta music venue, apache cafe,and to rate the show as good is beyond an understatement.the show;featuring dow jones, lazymayne, kosherbeets, yelawolf, and nwk, not only entertained, but reminded me why i love hip hop and music in general.i love that its able to get a message heard, i love that its relate-able, and i love the passion in the eyes of those who are candidly preaching what their feeling to the audience with the microphone as their only weapon.
nwk(new ways of komprehension), a group made up of two of my multi-talented friends ,freeman and ethereal, did an especially grand job of this.micah(freeman's) complex lyrics and dramatic stage presence mixed with brandon(ethereal's) eclectic flow and abrasive original beats makes for a lost genre of music that not only forces you to expand your ears, but your mind as well.



(ohh yeah and yelawolf killed it as usual but that's just something you have to experience first hand, done writing for the night)
