Watch: Rich Niggaz - @KhalilJibran_

Everything happens for a reason, they say. I say it's true.

I don't know if many people know it but over the summer New Jeruselem emcee, Khalil Jibran got shot in the head. Although I'm a Journalist, I'll just let him tell the rest of the story. It's gotta be one hell of one to tell. Either way God is good. That pretty much sums up the small skit in the beginning of his latest visual. Below peep Khalil's Rich Niggaz (as made famous by J. Cole) freestyle off his Rain on a Sunday Mixtape. Watch that after the break.

Watch: Tryna Be Heard - @KhalilJibran_

Khalil Jibran dropped a brand new visual for Tryna Be Heard off his Rain On a SUNday mixtape. The video includes a snippet of his Versace freestyle and features DJ Frosty (the host of the tape). Tryna Be Heard also features Olawumi on the hook. The visual was shot by BMar Famous Films. Soulful, Hungry, and Authentic. I guess you can figure that out for yourself. Watch Tryna Be Heard after the break, and be sure to download Rain on a SUNday via soundcloud.

Deeper Than the Music with Sir Moore & Khalil Jibran

Snowed out Tuesday equals Late Night Friday.

 Between chilly weather, precipitation, and campus police alarm settings, hosting WTM on our normal Tuesday night time slot was impossible. All setbacks lead to a better opportunity. The station gave us the go so we convened WTM on a prime time Friday Night from 10 pm-1 am. Well we didn't let the snow stop us from this dope sit in with Sir M00RE & Khalil Jibran. Of course we spoke about both of the artists and their projects and upcoming events. 

Khalil came in with a few announcements to make. The first of which was an announcement of his upcoming mixtape Rain On a SUNday which is expected to release on February 14th. I asked why Valentine's Day and he explained the oxymoron of the title. He got into his R&B roots and disclosed the smoothness of the project. "We don't have music for rainy Sundays where you can just look out the window and listen," he says. Valentine's day seems perfect in my eyes for something that soulful. Later on in the broadcast we played one of the tracks off that tape titled Please Just Get Away from Me featuring The Olawumii.

Throughout the segment we chopped it up with Sir Moore. We talked about his first ever EP, August Rush. He discussed the name and inspiration behind these six tracks. We also got a little off-topic and broke into his relationship with The Strivers' Row Poetry members and fellow NJ Emcee, Moruf. He filmed the show Moruf had with Jasmine Mans earlier this month in Newark. Joe V and August Rush was featured in Garden State Hip-Hop's "10 NJ Rappers to look for in 2014" article ran by Rodney Coursey.

Following the inteviews both artist had a killer freestyle to multiple instrumentals old and new. Both of them killed their spot. All in all both artists have a crazy 2014 coming up on the way. Glad to have gotten them on the show before greatness occurs. Clips from the freestyle will be posted at a later on, tune in.
