Jon Connor Feat. Pill – “Don’t Fall In Love With A B*tch (Remix)” Video

11.17.11 Written by Beware

Men, don’t leave your women around these two guys. As much as Jon Connor and Pill back-up the old adage you can’t turn a ‘ho into a housewife, I have a feeling they’re not opposed to turning housewives into hoes, either. Read the rest of this entry »

Jon Connor – “That’s What He Does”

11.01.11 Written by Raj

Even though I’ve seen Beware rave about Jon Connor so many times before, it took me awhile before I finally came around and listened to his music. The Flint emcee is definitely a guy who can carry his own weight on a record, but it’s still brave of him to take on an already pummeled beat like Lil’ Wayne’s “Intro/Interlude/Outro.” However it’s a whole ‘nother deal to then put a baseball bat to it and smash it up some more.

J. Capri Feat. Jon Connor – “In My Lifetime II”

09.16.11 Written by Beware

As much as I appreciate the fact NC spitter J.Capri enlisted Jon Connor for a homage to a certain Marcy mogul’s breakout hit, that’s not the proper angle for sharing this heat rock. Read the rest of this entry »

Jon Connor – “F.L.I. 69″ Video

08.10.11 Written by TC

Your favorite rapping Flint native, Jon Connor, continues to put on for his city like he’s their last hope similar to the real…err…fictional John Connor. To properly lead “The Resistance” you need to have adequate visual support and Salvation’s videos just keep pouring in on the weekly. Its latest track, “F.L.I. 69,” is just so-so but you have to admire the work ethic that’s being pounded into the pavement. The desire to get better is there and it should come as surprise if it doesn’t occur. Read the rest of this entry »

Jon Connor – “Aint No Future” Video

07.29.11 Written by TC

Before Mateen Cleaves and Michael Moore had Flint, MI receiving national attention, there was MC Breed, bursting on the scene with an instant classic that put perps, posers and p*ssies in their place the moment the beat dropped. “Ain’t No Future In Yo Frontin’” was so distinctively West Coast, Breed rarely got associated with hailing from Detroit’s lil cuz. But he was a Flintstone and so is Jon Connor and he’s doing in part in making sure his hometown is properly repped. Read the rest of this entry »

Cloudkicker x FLüD Watches Present Emilio Sparks – Scumbino’s Way

07.19.11 Written by TC

Emilio Sparks gets paid to be a professional cretin.

As if his dream job isn’t great enough, he mostly likely has your favorite rapper on speed dial for prank calls because he’s the spontaneous type. While you can catch the shameless disc jockey weekly on WSIA 88.9FM and his iTunes podcast, “The Emilio Experience,” he’s contributing to Hip-Hop in a major way with his 2nd compilation of beats-n-rhymes in Scumbino’s Way.
