Hollywood Hiatus (video)

Fresh off the Love Supreme album is Hollywood Hiatus (we played it on the show a bunch)...this video looks like it was a lot of fun & the ikea-commercial whip was a nice touch.

If you lag, you can still get A Love Supreme @ YOTHURZ.COM

...and here's a clip from their freestyle at The Takeover last month

Soon You'll Understand.

When you download this album, you will understand. This is Diz Gibran's latest project, totally produced by Moonshine and done in conjunction with Crooks & Castles. We had Diz come by the Takeover last month where we got to know a little about him and this project. It came out today and already has a crazy buzz, not to mention it's really good. Listen to the Takeover w/ Diz >here<



You can download the whole album (free!) at www.diznmoon.com and everybody that enters their email address and downloads the album from the site will automatically be entered to win a limited edition Crooks & Castles X Diz Gibran t-shirt.

Check out the Takeover this week to hear some more from Diz and everyone else who makes good music!
