ROBB BANK$ SHARES NEW SINGLE "KASE"

Robb Bank$ has just shared his new single "Kase", along with the announcement that his new album I Think I Might Be Happy Pt. 1 will be out on March 1st. Consistently rapping with a lethal combination of rapid-fire flows and intimate barwork, Robb Bank$ has proven himself as one of Florida's most prolific artists ever since emerging onto the scene over a decade ago. Known as a pioneer of the SoundCloud-era Hip-Hop whose sound was elevated to the mainstream throughout its boom in the mid-2010s. Since the release of his debut mixtape Calendars in 2012, Robb Bank$ has carved out a lane for himself as a firestarter, helping to break the careers of fellow Florida artists like Ski Mask the Slump God and XXXTentacion, who he collaborated with on tracks like "Plottin" (25M+ Streams). A series of other standout tracks like "It's Lifted" featuring Trippie Redd (14M+ Streams) and "Can't Feel My Face" featuring Wifisfuneral (26M+ Streams), have helped catapult Robb Bank$ into the upper echelon of modern-day Hip-Hop, garnering critical acclaim from the likes of Office Mag, CLASH and VIBE in the process.

After dropping I Dnt Txt Back, I Dnt Call, a Special Edition of his 2015 EP 2PhoneShawty and a collab tape with Tony Shhnow, I Can't Feel My Face Too last year, Robb Bank$ is keeping his hot streak alive with the new release of "Kase". The announcement of his highly-anticipated album I Think I Might Be Happy Pt. 1 (out 3/1) arrives today, on the birthday of his fan-favorite mixtape Calendars – paying homage to the breakthrough project on the forthcoming project's cover. With the release of his new single "Kase" following "Baby Tunechi" in setting up the forthcoming release of I Think I Might Be Happy Pt. 1, these singles are pulling back the curtains to reveal a long-awaited project that Robb Bank$ has been alluding to as a reference to his state of mind throughout his career. Now a solidified veteran figure in the Rap game, Robb Bank$'s I Think I Might Be Happy Pt. 1 will be out March 1st.

Courage in the Unknown

Today, for the first time in her one year of life, Ashi ventured out into our backyard. Found as a tiny runt in a shopping cart in a parking lot, she never truly knew the outdoors. The past year was spent in a small bedroom in a temporary living situation until she was adopted and learned a world beyond a tiny windowed room. Little by little, she ventured out into our living room—and from there, she graduated to a little explorer of the Bungalow.

We didn’t know how she’d react to going outside. At first, she had to be coaxed inch by inch with a Churu to even approach the door.

She sat behind the curtains, terrified yet intrigued. The rustles and chirps of mockingbirds, pigeons, and parakeets echoed in our golden hour backyard.

Ashi felt reluctance and allured at the same time by something so incredibly unknown—innately frightening. But after a few times of darting back and forth between the curtain and first steps, she began to prowl through our garden, chirping along.

By the end of our session, she kept darting back outside even after being taken back in. She was a kitty converted. It was such an overwhelming moment to behold. This cat transformed from being frightened of the world to being emboldened to explore it.

There’s a lot of unknown in the world right now. It’s easy to get caught up in your mind's concept of a thousand deaths rather than living in the present moment. The world may burn tomorrow—or it may not— but for right now, the birds are singing and golden light whispers through the wind chimes of our mango trees.

Take care of yourselves, swampies and swampettes.

Tigerland (2000, Joel Schumacher)

27/03/2024

Tigerland is a 2000 film by Joel Schumacher.

In September 1971 a group of recruits undergo training before being sent to Vietnam. The training consists of a perfect simulation of what the boys will face in war, and takes place first at Fort Polk and then in Tigerland, a Louisiana swamp very similar to the Vietnamese environment. Among all the recruits, the Rebel Roland Bozz stands out, allergic to the rules, who does not hide his anti-patriotic attitude at all.

Shot on a very low budget and with a handheld camera and in 16mm format. The actors did not have at their disposal make-up artists, hairdressers or any of the luxuries that actors are normally accustomed to. Filming lasted 38 days, from February to March 2000 in Florida.

Rising FL Star BossMan Dlow Shares Video for Hot 100 Hit "Get In With Me"

Bubbling out of South Florida with the slipperiest flow in the Sunshine State, BossMan Dlow is about to blow. Today, the Port Salerno native shares the highly-anticipated video for "Get In With Me," one of the fastest-rising and most surprising rap hits of this young year, generating over 10 million on-demand streams to date, and making its debut this week at #68 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Slithering atop a sinister instrumental by Dxntemadeit, Dlow stacks a series of slick-talking flexes, starting off the song with a memorable one-two, "I was bad in f*ckin' school, now I'm tryna dodge a sentence," and elevating from there, commenting on his iced-out wrist, noting his recent purchase of thousand dollar sneakers, and whipping his Bentley Bentayga like there's no tomorrow. The young rapper's charisma pops out of the speakers on "Get In With Me," as he rhymes in short bursts in an addictively off-kilter cadence. In the video, the rapper who calls himself "Big Za" gives a glimpse into his high-rolling lifestyle, starting with a long night of partying in Miami, before he takes his Bentley to Orlando for the NFL Pro Bowl. The video features clips from Dlow's post-game club performance with YTB Fatt. 

The new video for "Get In With Me" is only the latest step in the song's rise from regional hit to national smash. Released in mid-January, the song started life as a freestyle on Jacksonville, Florida freestyle series "Kreepin Through The Streetz." When Dlow posted a snippet from the freestyle on his Instagram feed, the post immediately went viral, generating over 8 million views and drawing comments from the likes of DaBaby and Luh Tyler, and many others. The song built grassroots momentum upon its official release, generating over 51k creates on TikTok, getting posted on social media by fans like Lil Baby and Solange, and trending on YouTube with a still image video. That grassroots bubble quickly exploded, and "Get In With Me" grew from an internet hit to an IRL problem–it currently ranks #11 on Apple Music's All-Genre Chart, after peaking at #1 over the weekend, and at #8 on Shazam's U.S. Top 200. Over the weekend, players from the Kansas City Chiefs turned up to the song in the locker room after winning their second straight Super Bowl.

Born and raised in Port Salerno, a city on Florida's Atlantic coast north of West Palm Beach, Bossman Dlow emerged in late 2023 as one of the burgeoning Florida street scene's most exciting voices. Before "Get In With Me," the 25-year-old rapper built a loyal following with songs like "The Biggest" ft. YTB Fatt (2.5 million YT views), "Phil Jackson" (1 million YT views), and "Rotation" (1.4 million views). Those three anthems and more appear on 2 Slippery, Dlow's first release for Alamo Records, which dropped in December. Featuring additional features from fellow Floridians Loe Shimmy and Woodboy Gee, the tape racked up over 2 million streams on Apple Music in its first week, reaching #17 on the platform's Hip-Hop Albums chart and #47 on the All-Genre Albums chart. The rising star has been generating over 19 million streams per week across his catalog. 

With a national hit on his hands and the world in his sights, Bossman Dlow is ready for stardom. Stay tuned for much more.

Reclaiming and Living

Clay is quasi-living—it has “memory” and follows the shape of your hands. In the lifespan of a clay blob, it can either become a beautiful piece of artwork… or maybe it ends up being another folded mess on the wheel. But discarded clay can rebirth through a process of rehydrating and re-wedging it into its former malleable shape.

Recently, we took on the challenge of reclaiming all our used clay on a beautiful sunny day.

We mashed up the clay, preparing it for its new life.

Mia spread the clay across a canvas board, evenly distributing it. She signed a heart shape and gave good intentions for the reborn clay to continue helping us continue our ceramics journey.

Reclaiming takes time. It takes energy and effort to reshape, remold, and sometimes it looks different. Whether it’s reclaiming clay or reclaiming your life’s story, anything will take love, compassion, and persistence.

It’s not a secret nor philosophically novel, but we gift ourselves these reminders as we push towards our dreams and goals. In a world that’s pushed by profit and productivity, it can seem like a waste of time to indulge in the stillness. That’s something we’re always trying to unlearn in our studio—to give ourselves grace to simply live.

Be still, be gentle, and—more importantly—be kind with yourselves. You’re doing great.
