Posts About Joell Ortiz

LOL at Joe Budden shaking the girl off his leg. This is going to be a good clip.

I wonder if the girl in question will be turned off or turned on by this? Good luck FreqShow!

Crooked I is back with his second installment to his behind the scenes series at this year’s Rock the Bells Festival, this time in Toronto.

Once again Crook takes you from the plane to the stage to show you the tour from the artist’s point of view.

There are also some funny moments back stage with Peter Rosenberg, then another one with Joell Ortiz and Joe Budden. KRS-One also makes a cameo in the video and says some nice things about Crooked and Slaughterhouse.

DJBooth caught up with Slaughterhouse at Rock The Bells in Chicago to discuss the group, what they want in 10 years, and who their favorite Rock The Bells act is.

Crooked I takes you behind the scenes at this year’s Rock the Bells festival with his group Slaughterhouse.

This is is the first video from the series he will release and Crook takes you all the way from the hotel, to the stage, to the backstage where Slaughterhouse kick back with Busta Rhymes.

I just posted up the first single from Slaughterhouse, “The One” [click here], and I thought I’d follow it up with some behind the scenes footage from the cameras of Royce The 5′9″, Joe Budden and others, documenting the creation of the song and it’s upcoming video.

Slaughterhouse, the group consisting of Joe Budden, Crooked I, Joell Ortiz and Royce The 5′9″, have had the internet a buzz with almost as much hype as Drake has lately, albiet without really catching on in the mainstream the same way. So it is no wonder their first official single from their upcoming album is more commercial.

Will it get them that mainstream love? Is it dope? Listen, find out, and comment below.

Ok I lied, this is more like 6 minutes with Joe Budden, Royce The 5′9″ and Joell Ortiz, can’t call it Slaughterhouse without Crooked I there, but you get the idea.

Here’s a filmclip for Saigon’s “Change Gon’ Come” featuring The Kickdrums. This is from the soundtrack for the film Inside A Change directed by Rik Cordero and stars rappers Consequence and Joell Ortiz. Check out the films website here. Props to ImmortalTech for the heads up.
