Gilbere Forte’ – “Die For You” Video x “My City To Your City”

05.16.11 Written by Greg Whitt

In unlikely collaboration news, I have the unique opportunity to mention Gilbere Forte, Lex Luger and the 2005 film Memoirs of a Geisha in the same sentence. In the second installment of video director and creative Swiss Army Knife Jerome White’s #WhyNotWednesdays series, the surprisingly smoothed out track from Gilbere’s Eye of Veritas mixtape is paired with artfully edited footage from the aforementioned film. The versatile rapper/singer laments a once-torrid love affair that’s now as cold as a pimp’s heart. Read the rest of this entry »

05.04.11 Written by TC

Let’s see here. In 1987, Reaganomics were a way of life, Whitney Houston was a Goody Two-Shoes and most avid sports fans took the phrase “Lakers vs. Celtics” for granted. It is also the year our chosen one of the second, Gilbere Forte’, was sent into this earth where he would later set his Eyes of Veritas on the music world. Read the rest of this entry »

Gilbere Forte’ – “Train Lights” (Prod. By Bink!)

Gilbere Forte’ – “Born In ’87″ (Prod. By Don Cannon)

01.17.11 Written by MZ

The saying goes that a journey of a million miles begins with one step. In the case of Gilbere Forte’ it all began with a dream deferred. The then newcomer’s 87 Dreams grabbed the attention of many and set the bar for Gil’s next move. Now with “Born In ’87,” the Philly transplant’s visions emphatically explode on the mic, bringing him one step closer to that dream reaching fruition. The track serves as a pretty vicious warning shot to listeners & competitors alike, as Gilbere’ further cements his foothold among those on the cusp of Hip-Hop’s next wave, taking a mere few minutes to address the questions of his origin, publicizes the industry chatter and the co-signs surrounding his name.
