Tek & Steele are Brooklyn duo Smif-N-Wessun, presenting the music video for "Stafallah", the new single from The All, their new album produced entirely by 9th Wonder and the Soul Council. The "Stafallah" clip comes on the heels of visuals for The All singles "Testify" (watch) and "Let It Go" (watch). Smif-N-Wessun crashed the hip-hop scene in the 1990s with their debut album Dah Shinin' (named a Top 100 Album Of All Time by The Source and a Top 50 Debut Album Of All Time by Complex), and made a lasting mark on hip-hop alongside the other members of their Boot Camp Clik (Black Moon, Heltah Skeltah & O.G.C.). Their 2011 album Monumental was produced by Pete Rock, and their last release was their 2012 EP Born And Raised. North Carolina producer 9th Wonder came to fame as beatsmith for Little Brother and went on to produce for Jay-Z, J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar and many more. The All is out now on Bucktown USA, the multi-media company General Steele created in 2004 alongside partner Cynical Smith, with digital distribution through Duck Down Records.

Bay Area, California rapper and Distant Relatives member Vocab Slick presents the William Rushton-directed music video for “That Money”, Vocab's new single produced by HG Beats and co-produced by Starski. The new clip comes on the heels of visuals for "Highway", Vocab's collaboration record with DJ True Justice and Z-Man (watch), and "Flying" (watch). Releasing his debut solo album Lyrically Conscious in 2003 following several stints in jail, Vocab formed the group Distant Relatives with his childhood friend Emotionall and rapper Maynee (stream "Celebrate" featuring The Grouch and Eligh). Emotionall was subsequently deported to Mexico, and Maynee passed away in 2014, one year after Vocab's mother passed and his daughter was born. Vocab bounced back with 2014's Somethin' Slick EP (Soundcloud), followed by the Issues & Episodesfull-length (stream "Priceless" featuring Opio of Souls of Mischief). Vocab co-founded the Slap Frost Tour, which grew into an annual festival featuring the likes of Planet Asia, Locksmith, and Chino XL. Vocab recently toured with Tha Alkaholiks and Gavlyn following the release of his EP The Day After Yesterday(stream "Pusha" featuring Planet Asia). ''I just wanted to write a song for working class people," Vocab says. "There is a whole other side to the get money mentality that a lot of artists don't address. It doesn't always have to be duffel bag boys and fancy cars. I come from a back ground where my parents got up every morning and went and clocked in at a 9-5 job. I wanted to shed some light on that because I feel like were getting to a point in Hip Hop where the majority of the message conveyed is you have to have some kind of dope hustle to get ahead and that's not always the case. If that's your thing by all means get your money. On the other side though it's ok to have a ''real'' job if that's what puts food on your table and takes care of your family. Salute to all the grinders."
