Maestro Knows - Episode 4 (Bun B) from Maestro Knows on Vimeo.
Kinda late but this is my favorite episode yet.
Bun B is a true idol in my opinion. This videolog shows how much of a humble dude he is, and his support for his fans. Whether it be throwing out free pairs of J’s, or giving a fellow fan a hug, Bun’s gonna stay true to the game and himself.

For the Spring/Summer run of merchandise, Lupe decided to stick with a simplistic theme that focused more around iconic imagery than complex design. A true innovator in both fashion and music, Lupe goes in depth on his clothing line, how he separates the two and what he hopes people will take from it.

It's not everyday you come across an artist like Curt@!n$. Musical talent aside, you can tell this guy has confidence in every word he says. Truly genuine from head to toe, his style translates directly to his lifestyle, which then is expressed through the music. His name is defined by being the end all be all to memorable moments, you can really get a feel of him as an artist.

World Premiere Video: Kanye West- Power




Short, but I love it. So genius. Power depicts an empire on the brink of collapse from its own excess, decadence and corruption. Directed by Marco Brambilla. Marco speaks to Vulture about the meaning behind the video.

So what exactly is the piece?
Well, it’s a video portrait of Kanye. It starts with a very tight shot introducing him that’s kind of a reinvention of a neoclassical painting. It pulls back from the shot, without any cuts, and we reveal the video canvas, populated by all these characters who are depicted in various stages of undress and decadence. The iconography comes from Roman iconography, Renaissance iconography, and it connects to the sexuality of the music as well. As we reveal the setting for it, there’s a feeling of a moment of transition for him. A fall from grace, if you will. It visualizes power, and him as the icon as power, and then at the end of the piece it challenges the power that I set up at the beginning. It’s an elliptical piece of storytelling.

How did you guys end up using that kind of imagery?
He approached me via my gallery and he wanted to do something that wasn’t a music video. He wanted a video work that would accompany the music. I said, “That’s great, because I don’t do music videos.” I wanted to give it an epic feeling. The song feels very personal, but the orchestration and the production of the track is epic and I wanted to give it something hypersensational and exaggerated.

And I understand you’ve heard that Dark Twisted Fantasy is the name of the album?
I’ve heard that’s the latest name. I would say not locked-in, and it would probably not get locked until closer to the time of the album release.
