BYP Shows His Affinity For Grass On ‘Smoking Everywhere’

Jake Mayo — Thu, 31 Mar 2016 18:41:08 +0000

Beau Young Prince shows his affinity for grass on ‘Smoking Everywhere.’ Premiered on HipHopDX, ‘Smoking Everywhere’ is a herbal-centric insight into the life of the Groovy God. Shot/edited by Myster, (a DC based brand whose high-end smoking products are revolutionizing the way canibus is consumed) SE is a stoner’s anthem. The video’s bright tones and weed-heavy direction match the essence of the track’s overt simplicity; Basically, it’s obvious that it’s for smokers, but not exclusively. Whether you’re a fan of Mary or not, ‘Smoking Everywhere’ (from his new album, Until Then) is visually pleasing and embodies a playful and fun nature. Produced by his go-to beat maker, Yalamusiq, (who subsequently produced the entire album) Beau’s on-camera presence is charismatically settling, acting almost as an invite of sorts to bask in the energy of the song’s message. Myster’s products can be seen throughout, visually introducing things like the signature ash tray and magnetic rolling tray, adding an element of product placement in the most subtle and tasteful of ways. With pot legalization in full effect in our nation’s capital, ‘Smoking Everywhere’ is not only a staple from the album, but the vibrant colors and flawless transtitions transforms a pot-heady (yes, I’m aware I just made that up) sonic into a captivating short-flim based on BYP’s herbal-friendly lifestyle. In an age where pot records are in abundance, ‘Smoking Everywhere’ sets a new standard for not only how they’re supposed to sound, but look as well. So sit back, roll one (on the Myster tray of course) watch, enjoy, repeat.

Beau Young Prince Embodies The Groove On “Until Then”

Jake Mayo — Fri, 11 Mar 2016 22:56:22 +0000

Beau Young Prince embodies the groove on Until Then. What Until Then signifies is the tale of a DC artist pushing the boundaries of creativity and musicianship, cultivating a wave of sound that travels far beyond the borders of the District of Columbia. Paired with his go-to producer Yalamusiq, (sort of a Drake & 40 or Batman & Robin type of situation, whichever analogy you prefer) Beau’s captivatingly detailed journey of late studio nights, trippy tour stops, and tireless writing sessions are poured into the album, weaving a combination of sonic innovation and crisply mastered production which in turn adds newly tweaked elements to an already budding sound. Until Then is soulful passion; a blissful mix of Yala’s Midas touch and BYP’s knack for blending thoughtful rhyme and soft, memorable melodies. The album consists of 13 cuts, ranging anywhere from records like “Galapagos,” and “Kisses Don’t Lie,” which are melodic onslaughts of emotionally charged and reminiscent messages, to more of Beau’s smoker-friendly tracks like “Smoking Everywhere,” “Faded In The Night,” and “Blue Dreams.” Not to mention “Half & Half Tea” which is high-energy ode to a not just a popular carry-out drink, but an entire culture rooted in the nations capital. What Beau and Yala have amassed is body of work that signifies struggle, unwavering dedication, and a seemingly unmatched work ethic and skill set that will hopefully carry this album through for some time to come. This is truly just the inception of what the future holds, but Until Then…

Yalamusiq Feat. Beau Young Prince – “Circumstances” (Prod. By Yalamusiq)

Jake Mayo — Thu, 28 Jan 2016 22:08:37 +0000

Yalamusiq and Beau Young Prince lustfully journey through the night on “Circumstances.” Ingeniously and craftily sampling the horns from Wreckx-n-Effect’s ’92 record “Rump Shaker,” (yes, from ’92) YM’s Jazz-infused, Digital R&B production is crafted around a vocal which places Beau Young Prince in the midst of artistic, albeit literal, indulgence, highlighting the triumphant vices of artist life. As the follow-up to “One Night” the DC/NY bond that has formed sonically on “Circumstance” appears to be on the cusp of pushing a futuristically chill vibe that much more into the future.

YalaMusiq and Beau Young Prince create a setting of musical bliss on “One Night.” Smooth synths, heavy drums, and an airy energy that paints a picture of transient love and lust, “One Night” is what happens when powerful, genre-blending production pairs with catchy phrasing and ingeniously quirky hooks. This record is yet another example of what’s being cooked up in our nations capital. Night moves.
