Outasight Releases Further EP


Here's the press release, or just click ahead to iTunes to grab the special digital edition of the album. 

Burbank, CA – Asylum recording artist and Yonkers native Outasight is gearing up for the release of his first commercial release, a digital EP titled Further. The EP comes as a follow-up to the incredibly successful mixtape of the same name that dropped as a free digital download in December of 2009, accruing over 120k downloads since. Popular clothing line L-R-G sponsored the 14-track mixtape and also distributed the free physical product through merchants nationwide. The digital EP, out March 23rd, will include four tracks that were featured on the mixtape in addition to two brand new songs. The video for “Catch Me If You Can” will debut the same day on MySpace in conjunction with the EP’s release. Three more videos from the EP will soon follow.

Outasight grew up in the suburbs of New York City where he discovered his love for music at a young age through a guitar passed down to him from his father. Because of his interest in various genres of music, it was not unusual for Outasight to practice with a garage band one day while honing his skills as an MC the next. His multi-faceted personalities manifest in the music he makes today as he weaves traditional hip-hop, classic soul, and pop music with a tinge of indie rock to form a style coined as “urban-alternative.”

Outasight’s first release was the Employee Of The Year mixtape that dropped in 2007. The project was successfully promoted through MySpace and became a fan-favorite in the blogosphere. However, it was his 2008 follow-up, Radio New York, which gave Outasight his biggest break. The mixtape landed on MySpace Homepage as part of their unsigned hype where it was prominently featured for three consecutive days receiving an average of 50,000 plays a day. The video for the song “Good Evening” was added to MTVU after winning the online MTVU Freshman competition. He released his third mixtape, From Here to There, with DJ Mike Boogie in March of 2009.

Outasight and his music have been featured on trendsetting and critics’ choice websites such as Complex.com, 2dopeboyz.com, Nahright.com, SmokingSection.com, URB.com, XXL.com, Okayplayer.com, HipHopDX.com and more.

As for his next step, Outasight will release his anticipated debut album, From Here To Eternity, due out later this year. “The concept behind my album is one person’s quest from the present moment to being timeless,” he says. “It’s something that lives way beyond me. It’s about the quest.”

Outasight Named a "XXS" Top Freshmen


White Boy Likes Hip-Hop? and HoldMyCoat teamed up to put together their own list of 2010's top ten freshmen. Outasight made the cut...

Outa won mtvU's Freshman, put out a dope EP with LRG, and recently signed to Asylum/Warner. On top of that, his creativity is on a complete different level than anyone I've heard in awhile. I would say with all that going on, he deserves a top 10 spot. And with the help of his producer, 6th Sense, OU will most likely continue to put out dope music and probably do well on the radio too.

The Kid Daytona... Profile by Tone

It's some kind of miracle that I'm awake this morning. But the blogosphere awaits. Meanwhile, 6th and Outasight been banging out some live performances (Twitter showed mad love), so make sure you check Ou's MySpace for the most up-to-date listings.

I had the chance to bring Tone and Daytona together last summer at The Stoop and it looks like they kept in touch. Tone put together one of his dope artist profiles for the Kid. This is a great video to watch not just for fans of Daytona but anyone looking to get into video-making, photography or new media -- Tone just goes in.

Peace and blessings to our family in chile.
