The Jealous Guys | Audiobook by 3qtr
Saw this video for Miss San Francisco by The Jealous Guys and had to find out more about them. Definitely digging their EP so had to of course share. Here is the dope video that got me excited and a little blurb about the group.
ABOUT
Frisco born sons Ayinde and BizYCasa met as children way before music was a thought, but as teenagers, life took them in very different directions. BizYCasa would go ahead to consume a steady diet of popular street culture and hip hop while Ayinde found the lure of the street corner lifestyle in San Francisco’s Lake View more attractive. Reunited by tragedy and circumstance, the duo started pursuing their artistic dreams as The Jealous Guys. They are motivated by two words: Life Insomniac — defined as someone who doesn’t sleep on life or the opportunities thrown their way.
Ayinde and BizYCasa’s recently dropped the project, “The Love Mixtape,” was met with critical acclaim. The videos for the singles “BRAINWASHED BY LONDON” and “LOVE YOU SO” both premiered on TheFADER.COM, while “BUSSTOP JAZZ” found its premier across the Atlantic in the UK with SouthernHospitality.com, eventually making its way onto UK and US radio. The Jealous Guys found love among producers as well with Clams Casino, Solomon & Finder and Lunice producing the aforementioned tracks (respectively).
The Jealous Guys will follow up “The Love Mixtape” with “Audio Book:” a four-song, four-video EP that’s crafted 100% by the extended Life Insomniac family including in-house film producer/director Chasen Paper, production from Jeremy Rose (The Weeknd) and vocals from Nieko Deluv. Audio Book’s juxtaposition of smooth, exotic production, hip hop drum patterns and the duo’s abstract, streetwise rhymes combine to create a sound that is unique, original to hip hop and instantly addictive to your ears.
