Greetings!  Namaste!  I bow to the the Divine you!

Straight out of the DMV, HippieLifeKrew’s own Visto links up with a familiar face and an Austrailian goddess.  Yep, I’m talking about T.I.’s son, Domani Harris, and Austrailian singer, Emmaline for the music video of his song “Namaste”.  With earthly visuals provided by Mother Nature, herself, and director Minista Millz (Minista Cinema), it provides a euphoric place of calmness to go with the vibes of the song. It’s different, in a positive way that it’s an escape from the mainstream.  A great message. Check out Domani when he first reacts to the track after the jump.

HippieLifeKrew’s (Visto & PinkyKillaKorn) new “What Hippie What” is undeniably contagious. The DMV has come accustomed to solid releases from HLK’s Visto and Pinky and “What Hippie What” is another radiant example of good music coming from DC’s resident flower children. WHW’s heavy bass and airy melodies display both artist’s versatility as lyricists and songwriters, melding indie sound with a hook that has massive radio appeal. Both Visto and PinkyKillaKorn’s authenticity is unwavering, selling not only their unique sound, but their credible brand of new age hippie. (Tye Dye sold separately)

The baby-faced MC, hailing from what he calls “New Maryland,” follows up his freshman project Watch The Bleachers with his new single “Party in CawlVille” produced by KevThatsDope. Cawl Sted made noise with his video New Black Panthers featuring Eddie Vanz around this time last year, and his cult-like following, Shepherds of the Black Sheep (SBS), have been busy cultivating a movement since. Cawl Sted will be sharing the bill with Visto January 23, 2015 at the Fillmore Silver Spring.
