A couple of music videos have been released recently that pay tribute to the earth's natural mood lifter, cannabis sativa. It's no secret in 2011 that socially and legally that marijuana has a prominent culture, especially the "arts" and especially our favorite, hip-hop.
Wale is a premiere wordsmith in todays game of rap and his free mixtapes along with his major label release Attention Deficit are all definitely worth spending the money and time to listen to. He's also been rocking throwbacks which to me will always be classic instead of some fad. Wale is definitely known for his gear and sneaker game and he's on point with his Barkley Maxes and the purp 95-96 Scottie Pippen All-Star Throwback…coldblooded. "Wear what you dig".
This video for "The Cloud" off his More About Nothing Mixtape is a great song with acoustic guitars and a sultry chorus by Tiara Thomas. You can download this fantasic mixtape here.
The other video is courtesy of Shia LeBouf….yeah, Transformers, who directs and shoots Kid Cudi's video for his song of his second album, Man on the Moon II, "Marijuana". Doesn't get more direct than that, but the video is a cool version of a documentary of Cudi's visit to Amsterdam and the Red Light District. He guest judges for the infamous Cannabis Cup 2011.
