Living in NYC, I come across so many fair weather Jets fans who have jumped on the bandwagon since the team’s big playoff run last year. And it’s annoying as fuck. Two years ago, I could go to any bar in Brooklyn and catch my slowly up-and-coming Cleveland Browns (who sadly lost an overtime nail biter to the Jets a couple weeks back) on TV. Now every bar I go to is filled with a new wave of Jets fans, and the bartenders refuse to turn to the Browns game.
But being a fan of a struggling team myself, I can appreciate the die hard cats who have always stuck with their team like Strange Famous Records’ artist Prolyphic. This video is for his track NY Jets – a song about the anxiety involved in being a Jets fan in years past. Luckily the team has battled back from years of struggle, and is pretty much a lock for the Wild Card playoff spot this year. Congrats to the Jets, but watch out for my Browns next year!

This isn’t exactly a video – more like a footage compilation. But either way, I like it. Fake Limps is a former HHL featured download featuring Cubbiebear (who also produced the song) and Seez Mics of Educated Consumers – along with cuts by DJ Addikt.
This is a nice remix of Prolyphic’s On The Side, one of my favorite tracks from his ’08 album “The Ugly Truth.” Remixed by Baltimore producer/emcee Cubbiebear. Click below to listen to On The Side Remix:

This is a nice video for former HHL quotable of the week Best Of Times, a track from Sage Francis’ new album “Li(f)e” – which has a regular spot in my rotation right now. If you like this, check out Slow Man.
This track is part spoken word and part hip-hop, so you’ll have to get a minute or so in for the actual rapping to begin. Nevertheless, I picked it as this week’s hip-hop quotable due to the track’s deep lyrical content. Best of Times, which you can download for FREE here, is the second leak from Sage Francis’ upcoming album “Li(f)e” – scheduled for release May 11 on Strange Famous Records.
