Calez

Calez released a mixtape a few months ago entitled Is Calez Famous Yet? Frustrated by a lack of blogosphere distribution, Calez created this new record and video dedicated to all those that didn’t find space (or more likely time) to check out the project.  “Middle Finger” is more than a rant from a young with a lot to prove.  Calez tells the story behind releasing his last mixtape, and the very real struggles of promotion and getting posts.  It’s much more than just recording, grabbing email address and sending out a somewhat-personalized-mass message.  The song is  a window into the 2011 methods of shopping a demo, and getting some attention. The production is a solid throwback to Native Tongues era Hip Hop, and the video also shows similar aesthetics.  Check it out below.
