KANSAS CITY, MO. - September 10, 2015
- Kadesh Flow links up with fellow emcee/producer Richie Branson to
create "Boxes" a lyrical expose on the plights of growing up as a black
nerd in trope-filled high school and collegiate environments, weaving a
tale of how hip hop stood as a guiding light through his adolescence.
The video continues Kadesh's #MayTheFlowBeWithYou series, a string of
weekly uploads that will occur every Thursday
through early November. The track was initially created as the second
round entry to the 2014/15 Nerdcore Vocalist Producer Challenge, which
Richie and Kadesh won handily in January. View the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=TWe1wzgZUeM
