Alternative Juke Box Time: SoloCult ~ "Follow"

in #sick-hop6 years ago (edited)

Tonight we are listening to @solocult, they make a new genera of hip-hop, they call it #sick-hop. This song is called "Follow" the video above is generally awesome and very artistic, the song is well produced and the lyrics are very poetic. This duo consists of Xel Xel (@ghostcat here on steemit) and McScaRy 777.

If you are feeling a bit sick of everything (like me right now), do yourself a favor and listen to this song and follow @solocult here on steemit!

Artists have always been the "avant-garde" on the "front line" so to speak, leading new movements, do yourself and the community a favor and support local steemit artists!

@solocult are also on soundcloud, with some new material, like this song:

It's said they might be planning to continue to populate steemit/dsound/etc with more tunes, so show them some love!


This is a comment from @solocult on this song/post:

This was our very first video as I’m sure Is obvious but I still think it really captures that time for us better then anything I could now create on more advanced platforms. This song happens to be the #1 fav of most our friends and supporters, and Imo is the first time we where ever really able to produce a full track that could be thought of as “professional” or at least approaching what we all generally consider to be commercial level production.

So stoked to see that dipping our feet into this new platform has been able to help extend our pool of listeners, even if only by one ; ) making this SickHop music is more then a hobby for us and for me personally is without a doubt directly responsible for me being on this earth today.

I’ll elaborate on such matters one day but suffice it to say it’s SickHop with a capital Sick. And I am being literal. Much love to my new friend-fenix for putting a smile on face of a freak who really needed one tonight. Ty.

Well, thank you @solocult!

Actually I am certifiably half-craaaaa... Sometimes... -Enjoy your beer!
Maybe that is why I love this song and the video, it really has this hypnotic-suggestive vibration pulling your mind into a whole new rabbit hole of existence, never really got this feeling from any other song, feels like being really drunk on some real Absinthe (the kind the great poets and artists used to drink for inspiration back in the 1800), whilst being barricaded with your best friend in a room in some kind of halfway-house, whilst the portal begins to open.

Great work @solocult and thanks for the feedback, having actual artist feedback is amazing, and rare and Im very grateful for this, it brings such amazing value to this post!!!

Thanks!!!

Smart post them lyrics. I would probably quote some of the lyrics in the post but, it's hard when you don't have them transcribed. =) Please comment the lyrics:

They should definitely put their stuff on DTube/DSound etc. and earn some rewards. However, don't migrate it all across, as these aren't permanent storage solutions.

Oh, sorry my bad @eftnow, migrate as in move their entire "body of work" over to Steemit or Dtube and just cancel their other accounts... No thats not what I was meaning to say... Im going to edit that, thanks for the heads-up @eftnow... I hope you enjoyed the song?
