Three Variations Of Onaje (feat. Buscrates 16-bit Ensemble and Geeman the Grand Ear)

We heard a snippet of the forthcoming Daft Punk album.  A couple bars looped in a TV commercial (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUmEfR5Krg0).  Sounded like it had Nile Rodgers from Chic on guitar.  We knew they were working with him.  

We wondered what the whole thing sounded like, so we picked up some instruments and decided to to imagine it for ourselves.

I Don't Wanna Be Right (feat. Jordan Montgomery, EZ Scarz) (Produced by Linwood Randolph)

The Arts Greenhouse is a hip-hop music education program for Pittsburgh teens that is affiliated with the Carnegie Mellon Center for the Arts in Society. With the help of faculty and students, as well as local hip-hop performers, teens write, compose, and then record songs in a state-of-the-art recording studio. Through the process teens develop musical and verbal skills, gain familiarity with historical and contemporary issues, and form connections that open new routes to community participation and to higher education.
