[Watch] Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip - "You Will See Me" (Official Video)

Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip return with another visually stunning clip for their lyrically heavy track "You Will See Me" taken from their recently released album, Repent Replenish Repeat. The video is a cool look into Pip losing it in a small room, before time seems to wind backwards while moving forwards too. It's rather cool. It fits nicely with Pip's passionate commentary and along with Dan Le Sac's ever building beat it makes for a pretty powerful watch. Check it out below.

When released last month, their album got to number one on the first ever Independent Record Store Chart and to celebrate that they're doing something a little special. On December 16th the pair will release the single on a limited run of vinyl that is exclusive to Independent record stores so keep your eyes peeled for that. The track will also be available digitally. Alternatively you could just buy their album and get a whole heap of awesome instead of just a little bit of awesome? In early 2014 you can catch the boys on the road which I'd highly recommend you do. Dates can be found after the jump.

[Watch] Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip - "Stunner" (Official Video)

Dan Le Sac and Scroobius Pip are set to team up yet again to bring us the best in beats and rhymes. At the weekend I was lucky enough to see them debut this track for the very first time in a live setting during their set at Y Not Festival. More on that later in the week! On Scroob's birthday though (August 3rd), as has been tradition for the past 3 years, he let loose some brand new goodies. This year we get the first single to be taken from their forthcoming album, Repent Replenish Repeat, which is set for release on the 7th of October. Turn it up loud and peep the vid below.

[Watch] Scroobius Pip x Grimes - "No Nimbus"

Here at SKOA we're pretty fond of Scroobius Pip. His solo album Distraction Pieces was a triumph both musically and lyrically but since then we've not really heard too much from him. Yesterday evening that changed as he posted a video online which contained some new music. Scroob says that it came about last week (Wednesday 19th) as he was driving around in his car blasting Grimes' latest record, Visions. When "Oblivion" came on he started to think up an accompanying vocal and when he got home he wrote it, recorded it and then a few days later decided to shoot a video too with the help of a friend. In the space of 72 hours he went from nothing to the above. The result, shot on a rainy Sunday, is an entertaining visual containing not just him but a pair of puppets for Grimes' parts. Brilliant. It's titled "No Nimbus" and can be enjoyed a number of times at the top. Grab it while you can as he doesn't own the beat and it could get taken down at any moment.

[Watch] Jackamo Brown - "Prayer for Slow Death"

Chances are you haven't heard of Jackamo Brown, he's just signed with Scroobius Pip's Speech Development Records and is about to put out his second single from Oh No. The Drift of the World which is out now on SDR. The track is a sombre alt-country number titled "Prayer for Slow Death" and you can enjoy the video at the top. It may not be the brightest of tracks but the pure rawness shines through and brings a chill to your spine. Definitely worth a watch/listen and we will certainly be keeping our eyes on Jackamo in the coming months.

His album dropped today though so if you want to pick it up head over to Scroob's store here.

[Watch] Scroobius Pip - "Soldier Boy (Kill Em)" Feat. B Dolan (Official Video)

Scroobius Pip's rip roaring debut last year was a lot to take in. From the lyrics to the heavy backing accompanying it, it was a little left field but it was so, so good.  We've already seen three videos from the album, one done on a minimum budget in a shipping container, the other featuring three ladies playing the parts of Scroob, P.O.S and Sage Francis along with a third for "The Struggle" with enough sugar skull face paint to make you think you were in Mexico for the Day of the Dead. Today though, a video appears online for the infectious upbeat jam, "Soldier Boy (Kill Em)" which features B Dolan. Regarding the video Scroob says:

"We had half a day spare with B Dolan on the last UK tour so we grabbed a camera, stole a jeep and made a video."

Think Ye and Jay-Z's "Otis" with a lower budget and more facial hair and the result would be this video. The single drops on January 29th featuring remixes from Rou of Enter Shikari, John The Baptist and WBYT.

Just two days ago we got to witness the cool concept video for Scroobius Pip's follow up to "Introdiction", "Let Em Come". Both tracks feature on his upcoming album Distraction Pieces which is set to drop on September 19th. This remix comes from Strange Famous Records and three of their affiliates: Sage Francis, Metermaids & Cecil Otter. FOr those who may not of know, Cecil is the mastermind behind the awesome Wugazi project and he made the beats here. Download it for yourselves below courtesy of Strange Famous Records

Pre-orders are available now for you guys and I'd advise you do it after giving it a couple of listens last night it is goign to be getting some heavy playback on my iTunes. Big beats and riffs paired up with Scroob's social commentary and digs works phenomenally well.

[Watch] Scroobius Pip - "Let Em Come" Feat. P.O.S. and Sage Francis (Official Video)

Last week Scroobius Pip posted a huge thanks to his fans for the amount of views his track "Introdiction" had got and promised us all a new vid if we helped him break the 200K play count. Guess what? WE DID. Offered up here is his brand new track "Let Em Come" which is set to feature on his highly anticipated solo album Distraction Pieces. Following up strong this track features P.O.S. and Sage Francis, it's a banger! Scroob's lyrical genius shines through and is complemented well with this collaboration. The video depicts three girls playing their respective alter egos of Pip, P.O.S. and Sage and what looks to be a very messy night on the town. Check it out at the top.

The album is set to drop on September 20th and it can't come a minute sooner! Pre-orders are available now for all you eager beavers.
