The freestyle cypher is a staple of Hip-Hop. It’s so ingrained in the original culture that it’s impossible to try and discredit it’s importance. But that’s not to say it’s always executed correctly. In fact, one would argue that unless the cypher is composed of veterans who can adjust and adapt to the rhythm of it all, then it’s […]
Read More Worst Ever: NYU Freestyle EttiquetteEven though the beat is simple, barely any bass, and only 1 minute long. Dumbfoundead goes off on how he loves to do what he does. Also I think this the beat fits Dumbfoundead’s voice well at least for this video. There’s really not much to say but DFD makes it seem like the “rap […]
Read More Dumbfoundead Spits Another “Blue” (Prod. by Soulspeak)Even though the guy is sick, literally, dumb continues his weekly video series. This time he unveils the track “Hit Me Up”, produced by Soulspeak. You can actually hear the sickness in his voice… that’s dedication. I get a kick out of seeing Zo always chilling in the background of these video drops. Just a […]
Read More Dumbfoundead Shares “Hit Me Up”It’s been years since we’ve seen a full-length LP from Philadelphia rapper Decipher. Sure, we’ve seen a couple mixtapes from him along with a plethora of feature spots on other artists’ songs but those aren’t enough to truly gauge how an artist has evolved over time compared to an actual, conceptualized album. But this changed […]
Read More Critic’s Corner: Decipher – The EffectWho would have thought these three rappers would have joined to make a video together? When I first heard they were collaborating together, I was really excited and didn’t know what to expect. At first, I thought they were going to be really serious with the video but I was totally wrong. It had a […]
Read More Dumbfoundead x Traphik x Jin – Charlie SheenDFD continues with his weekly webcam song drops, this time spitting a piece called “No More Sundays”. It’s a smooth jazzy Hip-Hop beat that I’m feeling and the good news is that Dumb will be taking all these snippets and making full tracks out of them for an upcoming mixtape. Everything I’ve heard so far […]
Read More “No More Sunny Days” Performed by DumbfoundeadThe new Joseph Kahn flick, “Detention” has just been given the official trailer treatment. Why is this on a-Tunes you ask? Well, that’s because one of the supporting roles is played by Mr. DFD, Dumbfoundead, himself. You can see him in a couple quick cuts in the trailer. I still have no clear idea what […]
Read More Detention Movie Trailer (Featuring Dumbfoundead) ReleasedUgggh. Dumbfoundead is one of those MC’s you don’t wanna challenge on that lyrical tip. This latest drop, “YO!”, only reinforces that fact. The beat, laced courtesy of 6Fingers, gives DFD the perfect vehicle to shine and I don’t think he disappoints. That line about kids covering Bruno Mars slayed me haha. Gotta love Zo chilling in […]
Read More It’s Dumbfoundead x 6Fingers “YO!”Kevin Cao, the same guy who’s done kinetic typography videos for Dumb’s “Love Psycle” and J. Reyez’s “Smile Through it All” has just dropped one for another Dumb track – “Zonin’” from his Cut + Paste mixtape. I’m sure many of you have heard the song before but it’s always interesting to watch it via […]
Read More New Dumbfoundead Kinetic Typography Video for “Zonin”Here’s a new freeverse video drop from DFD. Production was laced by legendary Korean Hip-Hop producer The Quiett; the two of them seem to make a great team. This one is titled “Blunts and Sunshine” and matches Dumb’s west coast persona well. I wouldn’t say this was a superlative video but it’s definitely more than […]
