It’s always interesting to see the motivations behind a track by a creative genius such as Tonedeff. This piece of video is from Tonedeff’s CD/DVD of Archetype. Check out Tonedeff as he deconstructs “Porcelain”.
Here’s the entire song for your enjoyment.

“The Distance” is the latest collaborative effort by Kno (from CunninLynguists) and Tonedeff off Strange Journey Vol. 1. I know I made a Chico and the Man post before but I had to let y’all hear this new joint. So dope.

Tonedeff and Kno aka Chico and The Man are a sick emcee/producer duo from QN5 in case you haven’t heard and they’re (finally) dropping their long-awaited album this summer. I got an update today regarding the new Myspace account made for the team. Check out the music and spread the word!
“My Lady” was originally released on the Asterisk: Four Mixtape but will also be included in the upcoming album. Enjoy.
