If you are looking for ransom I can tell you I don't have money, but what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you.

Portland songwriter Eso.Xo.Supreme delivers the official video for “NASA” featuring Tony Ro$e from his new Amnesia project. Directed by Shiner Pacific, the visual takes us to a dreamy space where Eso is surrounded by several beautiful ladies.
“We found this incredible space in our hometown of Portland – it’s called Vessel by Eyn Vas,” Eso says of the vibe.”Shiner is great at turning nothing into something, and having conviction about what he wants to see. There’s a certain beauty to this video that seems so different from other videos I’ve done. It has a hopeless romanticism to it, mixed in with rap scene when Tony Ro$e the feature comes on. Almost a duality that I wasn’t even seeing until the video was created.”
Eso’s 28-track Amnesia project has been in the works for quite some time, and the messaging behind the project is key.
“When people hear the Amnesia project, I want them to get the message to not ever let anyone take away your power. In anything you do in life, it takes so much energy, effort, love to bring that to fruition. Don’t let a soul forget what you have done or who you are. Be magnificent and shine bright in all things.”
Fast rising Michigan artist Kelsey Lynn teamed up with her bestie Lica B for this smash party anthem “Get Lit”.

Kelsey is currently opening on East Coast dates of Snow The Products ‘Goin Off’ Tour so catch them in a city near you soon.
Recently GlobeRunners Entertainment, CEO and founder Hollyhood Bugz spoke to the press about his rising movement in New York City that’s quickly growing it’s buzz in the streets of Brooklyn.
Originally designed as a way to get kids off the streets, Hollyhood Bugz’ new rap collective the GlobeRunners embodies Hip-Hop’s original spirit; get the kids off the streets and give them something constructive to do. Accompanied by Backdoor Movements CEO, BDM Smit, the GlobeRunners are pointed in the right direction away from crime and the confinements of jail, with a renewed focus on pushing the newest track, “The Cypher.”
“I started making music when I was probably like 13 or 14 years old in a juvenile jail as a way to express myself. I kept seeing the kids on my block needing direction, so I’m just trying to creative platform to put the kids on my block in a position where they can be doing something constructive and be successful,” Hollyhood Bugz explained. “I’ve taken a lot of trips around the world and the kids see that. I feel like its something that the world should hear though too. After I went to jail and stuff like that, the fact that I became a success out here despite the troubled beginnings shows the youth they can do the same thing too. So this is way deeper than rap.”
Inspired by the philanthropic nature of Jay-Z, Hollyhood Bugz draws inspiration from his fellow Brooklyn native that made it out and found ways to transform his community.
“I’m inspired by Jay-Z’s music because he’s from Brooklyn in the projects and for him to be where he is now, that inspires me overall with my circumstances. So I just want to create this way for the youth to find their path,” Hollyhood Bugz said.
Featuring a constantly developing roster at GlobeRunners Ent., Hollyhood Bugz has signed a host of talented and hungry artists including Willzbugatti, BiggsGTO, MaseratiMickey, Stellyhundo, Teddybucks and ShanPane. With ages ranging from 18-34, this Brooklyn based group collective puts one foot forward with,”The Cypher” and cohesive sound that goes far beyond the music.

WillzBugatti and BiggsGTO, they have a track out right now called Heartless and it’s kind of a melodic feel for the younger generation. Then we got an EP out called Take Money and it has 6 songs on there. Everything is on the EP, we just trying to get the best out of the music we are pushing.”
