(Music Video) "Gloria Clemente / Mindframe '13" [Ads Antalik]

Though young in age, R.A.R.E. Nation's Ads Antalik is old in spirit. An artist that makes sure to always pay tribute to those who have paved the way for his hip hop style (his biggest influence, Pete Rock, especially), Ads delivers his newest music video, "Gloria Clemente / Mindframe '13." The video pays tribute to the classic movie "White Men Can't Jump" while maintaining Ads' modern signature sound, as the young emcee depicts the struggle of using your rhymes as an unknown artist to make a living. The video was directed by Antuks.

(Music Video) "Coming Right Back" [Ads Antalik ft. Palermo Stone & AF Rome]

The lively, exciting Ads Antalik recruits label-mates Palermo Stone and AF Rome for crisp visuals to "Coming Right Back." The song, produced by Samuel Whitney, finds the three talented emcees in a reflective yet celebratory mood. Ads Antalik is currently preparing his debut project as a R.A.R.E. Nation artist.

Pittsburgh’s twenty-year-old Ads Antalik offers a new, refreshingly different voice for hip hop, a voice that is not bound by city limits or subject matter. He boasts an exciting, rapid-fire delivery mixed with chillingly intricate, yet easy-to-digest lyrics. As hip hop enters what seems to be a lyrical revival, Ads Antalik is the voice to pair this lyrical resurgence with a positive message and push the limits of hip hop in order to bring a positive change to a world that so desperately needs it.
