Music video: Diggy Simmons – “Shook Ones Freestyle”

The young MC is back at it again.  Diggy Simmons has collaborated with director Phil the god once more to fashion out this far too short music video.  Watch Diggy freestyle over a Mobb Deep instrument.  I’m telling you, this kid’s got game, look out.  His second mixtape released in early September; download Airborne here.  It features the Lupe Fiasco & Pharrell assisted track “Oh Yeah!”  Been slacking?  Download his first mixtape The First Flight here.

Who ordered a G.O.O.D. Music freestyle?

Cuz here it is, fresh out the oven.  During the 2010 BET Awards this video aired as part of the “Cypher series” and a sponser for Sprite.  It features the Rosewood Crew, a rap ratpack consisting of Kanye West, Pusha T, Big Sean, CyHi Da Prynce, and Common.  DJ Premiere is scratching the throwback ’90s beat.  It’s crazy good and all for fun.  Watch it above now, download a version for keeps later.

Ben Folds’ “Ode to Merton” brings us more Chatroulette freestylin’

I bet you’ve all seen or heard of mystery man “Merton” who actually made Chatroulette’s existence something to actually take interest in (at least for a few minutes).  He interacted with strangers by playing the piano, improvising his lyrics based on the stranger’s looks and actions.  After this hilarious video made its rounds on the Internet, many started to believe “Merton” was actually musican Ben Folds.  A source close to Folds denied this rumor.  Fortunately Folds is a funny man at heart and decided to take hold of this opportunity.  And so we get the video you see above: Ben Folds performing an “ode to Merton,” hoodie and all, in front of a live audience during a stop on his tour.
