The Underachievers

So a while back we dropped Gold Soul Theory and after one play you could tell these guys were going to get big.  More recently, the Underachievers have teamed up with Brainfeeder to produce Indigoism.  Check out what Brainfeeder had to say about it: 

"‘Indigoism’ marks the first Brainfeeder/Underachievers collaboration. Dropping February 1st, the 17-track mixtape features the duo’s underground hits (including ‘Gold Soul Theory,’ ‘Herb Shuttles’ and ‘Leopard Shepherd’), in addition to brand new tracks produced by the likes of Mr Bristol, Rich Flyer, The Entreproducers, Bruce Lee Kixxs, Juice and Lou Chapo from Tribe Gang, and Dreamrite. Listening to their sage lyrics, it’s hard to believe they’re only 21 (Ak) and 22 (Issa Dash) years old. And on the strength of ‘Indigoism,’ it’s near impossible to believe that up until 9 months ago, Ak and Dash had no set intention to be in the rap game at all. As they say themselves: “Indigos on the rise.”"

The Mahdi is one of my personal favorites and we've got the video ready to go after the jump.  Also! be sure to grab your free copy of Indigoism (link below the video).

FECAL FACE

"How would you describe Fecal Face to someone that may be unfamiliar?
Well, it went online in 2000, and back then there wasn't much in the way of art/ skate centric websites online. We were online before EBay/ Youtube... Google had just got going a few years before. There were no such terms as "blog", etc. So at the time, it was a pretty radical thing... Now, I tell people it's an online art magazine/ blog that's mainly curated by me and its contributors from San Francisco, Los Angeles, NYC, and wherever really. Been doing it for so long and the web has gone through so many changes... Guess I would call it a forum for art, culture and visual information and stimulation curated through the eyes and ears of a man in his thirties that grew up highly influenced by skateboarding culture, music, art, and life."

It's a dope website and hosts some really crazy-good art.  Buck showed me free fridayz, which is a weekly drawing contest open to anyone that awards the artist of the top rated piece with some swwwag.  Check it out!
