watch: dustin cavazos – alright [feat. slim gravy of a.dd+]

it’s incredible how far dustin’s come in a couple of years. the clip for for “alright” opens up with footage that he took himself of his song playing at the american airlines center during a tv timeout at a mavericks game. impressive, really. just a year and a half ago, we were talking to him in his apartment about the release of “be.leave.me” and all of that jazz.

well, get on the clip above and enjoy the music video for “alright,” a track that saw dustin putting out something a bit more commercial and just as effective, and a video that sees him surrounded by his friends, family and colleagues enjoying the aforementioned track.

1000 days is available for free download, and his newest LP (which holds this track), is available here.

pretty much as soon as dustin wrapped up production on in and out of sleep (i JUST got my physical copy in the mail, by the way), he hopped projects and switched over to a new one: 1000 days. the project will be produced by his friend jose gomez and will hit your internet airwaves in exactly a week from tomorrow, february 19th. the man doesn’t sleep, nor does he stop working. “1000 words” is a fantastic kickoff to this project, featuring a slide show of images he’s shot in the time he’s been working on the project.

video: dustin cavazos – daydream & make believe [apartment version] (2012)

dustin cavazos always has a unique sense of promotion. he always maintains a sense of “open book” with his fans, but is reluctant to share album versions of songs as promotion, so he’s always coming up with clever outlets such as this. in this clip, he premieres a new song from his pending LP, in and out of sleep, and performs it live within the confines of an apartment. along with him for the ride is friend and guitarist, jaramiah. IAOOS is out december 14, and you can preorder it right here.

show recap: schoolboy q + the niceguys + dustin cavazos (june 29, 2012)

Schoolboy Q has been cleaning up blogs and hip-hop heads across the webs’ recommendations this year, hasn’t he? After Kendrick Lamar’s superb 2011, Schoolboy Q was the next up from Top Dawg Entertainment to showcase his talents, managing to hold his own on January’s Habits & Contradictions. It was strange that by the end of June, he was already headlining a set at Houston’s Warehouse Live Studio, and brought along our friends The Niceguys and Dallas’ Dustin Cavazos along for the ride.
