Watch Brother Ali at Glaz’Art, Paris, France
Well, hello again. I realize it’s been a while since I’ve been able to post, time not being on my side. I won’t bother you with details, but just know that I am back and on a regular basis. Hell, you probably didn’t even notice I was gone. Well anyways, while on my leave from AWmusic I received many emails packed with amazing music that I’ll be sharing with you in the upcoming weeks.Today something caught my attention, a special treat for myself that I thought would also be a fantastic gift to you.
Brother Ali‘s recent release, “Us”, has taken an inward approach. The focus of his writing takes a look at the places, religious beliefs, people and situations that have led him to this point in his career, as well as the directions he is striving for in the future. Although blowing up and becoming one of the most celebrated underground artists today, Brother Ali remains humble and realizes his friends and fans are what have really helped him progress in life, not just as an artist.
The following is a high quality video from a set recorded live in Paris, France at Glaz’Art last month. If you are already a fan of Brother Ali then this is something special. If you haven’t heard of Brother Ali but are just curious as to what makes the essence of conscious rap…. This video is also for you.

As I’m in the mood for giving, here’s an mp3 from “Us”:
