Brandon Backhaus
Brandon Backhaus has been asleep at the wheel for a decade. He just woke up smashed in a roadside ditch surrounded my empty Mike's Hard Lemonade bottles, and Ragga Jungle mixtapes. And after taking stock, has decided to hitchhike back to life, pausing only to belt out the occasional, "It's the Final Countdown", masturbate, and be mouth-raped by Cap't Crunch.

One Song: OneWerd feat. Myka 9 - Your Own Monster
Brandon Backhaus | July 20, 2016
Like several other rappers turned educators, OneWerd, is keeping the it hella live for the elbow patch set. I do challenge you to find another rapper in the teach rap genre that packs more rhymes per syllable. OneWerd also...

World Premiere: Sammy Warm Hands & Ogar Burl - Break The Mold
Brandon Backhaus | July 18, 2016
What do you get when you cross a rapper who looks like a piñata mid-explosion, and another rapper who definitely knows how many hit points it takes to fell an ogre?
It’s a world premiere video called, “Break the Mold” and I fucking LOVE IT!
My chubbed-up...

dumbfoundead - Safe
Brandon Backhaus | July 14, 2016

One Song: P.O.S. - Wave
Brandon Backhaus | July 13, 2016
The anxiety is real! I’ve been so fucking stressed out! Life has been jumping up and down on my balls for the last six months like my supple testicle skin was stretched out across a trampoline frame.
For those of you that don’t know, Minneapolis artist...

Aesop Rock - Blood Sandwich
Brandon Backhaus | July 12, 2016
After all the shit that went down recently, I was in dire need of some innocence, some childhood memories wrapped in humor and simplicity. Rap isn’t usually the place to find that. Luckily the world has one, Aesop Rock.
His record The...

Awkward - Torch Wave
Brandon Backhaus | June 22, 2016
I’m sitting in my empty classroom. I came to fill up the fish tank so they don’t die. It’s summer. It’s hot. Like nuclear hot. School’s out. There are no students. My son is playing with a combination of cowboys and indians and World War II plastic figurines...

World Premiere: Cesl - Strange Hop
Brandon Backhaus | June 16, 2016
I first heard Cesl during what now seems like ancient history. The Lemondrop Kid. He was a brash, artistic and adorable member of the Futurelics. Think Log Cabin Crew only more Silver Lakey before Silver Lakey meant Silver Lakey. The year was...
