[youtube]http://youtu.be/qyMJGE0ZcLo[/youtube] Old Money and Lamin Fofana present the video for “Ethiopia” (shot, directed & edited by Olivia Seally), the single they released on Dutty Artz last fall. The video also includes the B-Side from the release, Nãga.
Okaypayer writes: Brooklyn-based producers Old Money and Lamin Fofana continue their collaboration with Ethiopia/NÄga, the first in a series of three joint releases. The duo themselves describe the audio experience as “an examination of mysteries as articulated through fresh and distinct African Caribbean lenses†— which is dead on. These journeys, which I refuse to just call tracks, sound like solutions of different […]
Old Money & Lamin Fofana collaborate in the first of a series of three releases for an examination of mysteries as articulated through fresh and distinct African Caribbean lenses.

Originally posted on Mudd Up This Wednesday, with the all-volunteer help of Spectacle Theater’s Akiva, Cassie D, and Zoe S, and WFMU’s Mike A, Bill B, and Dave E, we were able to continue our strange and occasionally bumpy journey down the path of live radio built from video clips & staged before an audience.

Peace good peoples. I’m new around here, so thanks firstly to Jace for having me. This here is a mix from my group Old Money for the good folks at VANE. Less a compilation of “the new hot shit” and more so genuine touchstones of influence for us. A cpl unreleased jawns on there from […]
I remember the first time I heard slowed down, or screwed music. I was in an old lincoln towncar, driving through Orlando, FL with a dude named Cleon. It was hot as hell, and me and some guys from NY were down there shooting a no budget gangster flick. We shot in the hotel we […]
I was recently a guest on Impose Mag’s Audio Imposition show, where the host Eric Phipps and I talked a bit about what’s next with Old Money, Shamans in Peru, and more. I got pretty hype in particular when the question of early influences came up, because it made me think back to old Kayslay CDs […]
To twitter search Michael Vick’s name on Saturday, March 22, 2014 after it was announced he would be the Jets’ new quarterback was to get a view of (white) America’s underbelly. This is same America that has made George Zimmerman into a celebrity, and can barely muster sadness, let alone perpetual outrage when you’re talking […]

Dutty Artz began as a vehicle to release music that we were working on. Since then the DA family has grown, branched […]
