This Thursday is the very first show in the Fresh Selects Presents… event concert series – and I’m proud to be launching series by bringing out one of my favorite artists, Invincible, for her official Portland debut. So if you’re in the Portland area, be sure to come out to The Fix tomorrow night! [...]
I know, I’ve been telling you that this video was coming for a while now – but its finally here. The delay for the premiere occurred due to the censors over at MTVu banning the video for being too “problematic” due to “suicide undertones.” So Invincible, being the G that she is, decided [...]
Here’s the exclusive premiere of some live footage from both Invincible & Finale’s performances from SXSW last week. With Invincible dropping the delayed “Ropes” video soon, “Looongawaited” is too fitting of a track to pass up (the video will be well worth the wait – trust). Similarly anticipated, Finale will be dropping both his [...]
Another Bling47/EMERGENCE exclusive from Invincible – this time I’ve got an unreleased track from the same sessions that spawned last year’s underground classic (yeah, I said it), ShapeShifters. The song is “Taxicab Confessions” and it was produced by the legendary Brooklyn-based duo, Da Beatminerz – best known for their classic work with Black Moon [...]
Here’s an exclusive first look behind the scenes of one of my favorite MC’s, Invincible’s upcoming video for the song, “Ropes.” The track is an emotional highlight from her debut album, last year’s ShapeShifters, which pairs Invincible’s intimate storytelling with some hauntingly somber vocals from her Bling47 compatriot, Tiombe Lockhart, all over a stuttering, organ-filled [...]
Today marks the debut of my new podcast, simply titled Fresh Selects Radio. Even though this is the first episode, it feels like the second in a way, because its more or less a follow-up to the Loose Joints mixtape I put together last fall. Just like that, its a collection showcasing both [...]

As promised, PPP have released an exclusive free download mixtape to promote their brand new album, Abundace, dropping next week. PPP founder, Waajeed, originally put together this mixtape for PPP’s European tour last fall. Compromised of exclusive new remixes of PPP classics & Waajeed-approved blends by Seattle-based, DJ Topspin, along with exclusive outtakes [...]
For everyone who hit me up about the new Finale tracks from the Loose Joints unmixed-tape and asked for more – I got you. Fresh from Finale himself, we’ve got another pair of new tracks – “Jungle Music (All Day),” his take on Baltimore club/go-go music produced by Nick Tha 1da, and the introspective [...]
