This second installation of Konektado DVD Magazine starts off with billboards you see along EDSA and pans into the minimum wage workers who put up these billboards for these big companies. You'll see exactly how these cats put up the billboard simultaneously interviewing Jay-r about that same billboard. Mike and J-Hon has progressed they're handy cam shooting skills and has managed to pick where Konektado 1 left off.
There are alot of intriguing stuffs going on in this release. The first one is how To The Billboard peoples got played by the Colt 45 situation through broken promises after Mike generated a buzz in the streets for them. There's tons of freestyles happening in between scenes from Gloc 9, 187 Mobstaz, Aero, Crazy Oddz and more! Also the Camera Gangsters walk through Manila's parties whether a block party of some elite shit. They spotted ad interviewed urban celebs Qyork, Tilt (Kid Robot), Mark B of Specks, Chub-b. Alot of clowning going on throughout the dvd -- proving that hiphop is not losing the element of fun. Shoutouts to Quest & Sunny Blaze for stealing the show and keeping it real!
Main features God's Will & Slick n Sly Kane proved time and time again the stories behind they're relevant success. As God's Will took you through his hood in Batangas while Slick n Sly Kane threw his story in there in detail about leaving South Africa because of a death of a friend and ended up with the pioneers of gangsta rap in the Philippines. The footages are indepth and although you don't see pinoy hiphop in all your commercial mediums -- this DVD captures it to catch you dumbfounded about how hiphop makes its way through these scenes, from the streets to your tv screens, from our studios to your ears.
NYC heads come in and wrecked shop and even shoutout Mike Sosa on the cover of the DVD. Ken Boogaloo, Sean the white rapper and heads from NYC give love back to the Philippines and just keeping the spirit of unison alive despite the distance. No movement has ever transcended race, nation, youth, history the way this DVD has.
Konektado DVD Magazine Vol.2 "Hungry & Humble" OUT NOW
To The Billboard has several players and pillars. And what this DVD captured is Roland Dantes' last interview by J-Hon himself. The legend that this man left is often forgotten by the internet raised youth. And Konektado bridges this, not even your favorite OPM act prolly has reached out this much. Hiphop bridges the old with the new, what other music genre can you say the same. Carry on tradition. Tuesday Troop lived around Mr. Dantes' presence, he is forever legendary.
