The first official single, &#8220;Elevation,&#8221; hits the streets\u00a0 today, and the crew have been hard at work finishing their chilled-out, yet heavy-hitting new video to go along with it. Shot up close and personal with the emcees spitting to the camera, the video takes place in a small and shadowy room &#8211; representing feelings of isolation, confusion, and loneliness that so many can relate to feeling at some point or another. But on the flipside, despite the track&#8217;s dark and almost bleak feel, listen closely, because the message is one of motivation rather than misery.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Elevation&#8221; features a guest appearance from lyrical maestro Opio of the Bay Area&#8217;s Souls Of Mischief, who true to form, delivers a tight package of carefully crafted lyrics that get straight into your head. &#8220;The idea of always elevating, getting better, wiser and stronger is something I always try to do in all aspects of life, music, art, business, spirituality&#8221; says Opio. The song is about taking a stance, being aware of your surroundings, and elevating past limitations.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/album\/understanding-elevation-single\/id352529149\">Buy the song at itunes<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;This particular song is about elevating your art form past the norms and standards of an industry with an ever narrowing emotional range.&#8221; &#8211; Opio The Video: West Coast\/Midwest trio Chosen Few (comprised of MC&#8217;s Cold Showda, Charles \u201cChop\u201d Cooper, and producer Unjust) are preparing to drop their highly anticipated Hiero Imperium Records debut, New [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[592,588,591,463,589,590,593],"class_list":["post-1182","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-chop","tag-chosen-few","tag-cold-showda","tag-hieroglyphics","tag-opio","tag-souls-of-mischief","tag-unjust"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thegiantpeachnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1182","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thegiantpeachnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thegiantpeachnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thegiantpeachnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thegiantpeachnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1182"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/thegiantpeachnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1182\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1185,"href":"https:\/\/thegiantpeachnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1182\/revisions\/1185"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thegiantpeachnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1182"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thegiantpeachnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1182"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thegiantpeachnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1182"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
