In case you missed it: Old Money - Jubilee (video)
Here's the plug that accompanied this video, as you will see this is from around the time of the July 4 holiday:
"our timeline/newsfeed the weekend of july 4th ranged from essentially "yo where the party at" to "read this frederick douglass speech" to "I wish I was 5 years old again" to "fireworks to me symbolize BOMBS and remind me of violent scenes in my neighborhood." point is, we have a lot of friends with conflicting feelings on holidays like independence day in America, due to past struggles and/or presents issues i.e. immigration or marriage rights or police brutality or just the overall feeling of being a second class citizen. that in mind, we took footage from a small get together in Pennsylvania and made this, for them."

Afrikan Boy - "Lagos Town (Konrad Old Money Remix)"
You may know this dude from his cameo on M.I.A.'s "Hussel" track on her Kala album. Now check out this remix of his own single by Konrad Old Money:

BUY the original version on itunes here (although the remix is pretty much killing it, to be honest). The Can of Whoopass Vol. 1: The Rise of Captain Africa mixtape also coming soon (possibly?) featuring this remix.
