(Video) Quaine – “Talk to em”@LEGENDARYQUAINE
“I go by the name of QUAINE aka LEGENDARY QUAINE. We’ve all heard the stories, ordinary guys doing extraordinary things, urban HOOD legends defying expectations. Every time those stories are told, I’m reminded of my own.
IT took a while for me to understand how much we as a community have to deal with just by existing. I dont mean just us, but all of us who had to struggle, all of us who don’t ever give up, all of us who take risks and literally bet it all on US… just to make it. I WAS born and raised in the mean streets of Washington DC Just like many of you, I’ve overcame some rough terrain, tumultuous challenges and harsh obstacles. Most young black men face these conditions just as a part of growing up. I began to see our environment as an advantage, although we the cards dealt are designed for us to fail, I discovered that We also have a huge advantage, our mental toughness. Inside of one of America’s wickedest societies I began to embrace the important parts of life and learned to how to reach other like minded individuals, we share certain values and morality that makes us familiar…support the clothing line and learn more about the brand at www.smtfamily.com support the real!” – Quaine

(Video) HoodTrophy Bino – “By Your Side” @binngobino
Hoodtrophy Bino just dropped a heart melting new video for “By Your Side” from his new album HoodTrophy. This emotional track serves as a love letter to his daughter Milliani and his family, showcasing the artist’s personal journey and deep family connections as he embarks on a new chapter in his career and life.
The music video for “By Your Side” was filmed in Chicago where Bino received the Community Awareness Award at the Tylerman Social Awareness Film Festival – one of the 61 awards that his documentary HoodTrophy Bino: Breaking the Generational Curse, has received so far in the festival circuit. Even the video shoot became a family affair, with Bino’s extended family in attendance including his 86-year-old grandmother, a former Black Panther member, whose presence added a powerful generational dimension to the project.
“By Your Side” stands as a testament to the enduring power of family bonds and the resilience of the human spirit. Through his music and visual storytelling, HoodTrophy Bino continues to bridge personal narrative with broader themes of social justice, creating work that is both intimately touching and universally relevant. In a separate but related achievement, Bino’s documentary won Best Short Documentary at the Black August Film Festival. This annual event, which began as a prison-based observance, commemorates Black freedom fighters and political prisoners while highlighting Black resistance against racial oppression. The festival’s origins can be traced back to 1979 when it was initiated by the Black Guerilla Family in San Quentin State Prison – the same institution where Bino’s father is currently serving a life sentence.
Hoodtropy Bino is gearing up to release his second full-length and is currently on a North American tour with Bravo the Bagchaser followed by 19 tour dates with Soulja Boy.
