The Diligentz: Punk Rock/ Tyga on the rise


The Diligentz are making fresh music. With cool production from Jay Ant and a care-free rhyme style, their music is fun and refreshing. The Diligents are advocates of the punk rock movement occurring in hip-hop culture right now. I posted the video of their big hit with The Pack which kinda sums it up on this older post. This next video is an example of indie influence on their music:
This has been my favorite song of the last couple days, and this video just makes it better. Here's the song:
Also, here's the video for the original song they did the spin off from... It's called Young Folks by Peter Bjorn and John:

Another song to display their creative style is this one from Damey. Using a video game beat, he combines romance with video games. I like it.
Also check out these two songs. The first one refers to meeting in the ladies room.
...and the next one is the newest single off their myspace page

A big upcoming artist from Compton named Tyga is making some noise lately. He's been signed to Young Money by Lil Wayne... not a bad endorsement. He also kicks it with The Pack. You can see him in the background of the In My Car video as the guy with the big smile on doing the steering wheel dance. Here's a clip from the video shoot...you can tell who he is thanks to the huge TYGA chain he shows. Check out Tyga's video for Coconut Juice featuring Travis from Gym Class Heroes:

And finally, check out the super fly song from his new mixtape featuring Lil Weezy himself. The beat sounds like what a medieval king would use to roll out his red carpet. I could see Wayne doing that in his next music video.
