Our Story
I'm Drew Welsh. I'm making a music video for Kanis Lu and Mark Deez for their new track "Vendetta," which will be featured on Kanis Lu's soon-to-be-dropped solo album called Mouth Of The Dog. I've completed several videos for Kanis Lu and Cornbread Children in Atlanta, GA, and so far it's been a great working relationship. Kanis and CBC have also done several collabs with Mark Deez out of Augusta, GA. These guys are kick-@$$ hip-hop artists, and this is going to be one kick-@$$ music video.
Kanis Lu is working on a solo album featuring dope tracks and collaborations with all your favorite underground hip-hop cats. "Vendetta," produced by The Goat, is guaranteed to leave you reelin'.

Why Should You Donate?
Because lame music videos suck. Because Kanis Lu has been hard at work and is about to drop two sick records that you're gonna love - Mouth of the Dog and Doape Children. Because you love Mark Deez' rap. Because good art is worth it.
The Video
The video is about two guys who have... a vendetta. Seriously, though, these two guys mean business, and they're delivering the business to some crooked-type @$$hole businessman who... wait, what did he do? Anyway, he has it coming. We're going to film it in the Metro Atlanta area, with a few possible pickups in Augusta. The guys are gonna be lookin' sharp, acting tough, and bringin' the heat.
What We Need & What You Get
I'm filming/producing/editing the video for free, though there's still a lot of the production that costs money. We're asking for a thousand bucks, but the more you give, the better this video will be, because we'll be able to afford better stuff: we need dolly/jib equipment, special lighting, wardrobe, locations (you know all the cool places you see in videos? they actually cost a lot of money to "buy" for a video shoot,) some hired talent, some props and supplies, money to go get Mark Deez from Augusta (he only rides in a white chariot driven by thirty seven Norwegian stallions...)
You get a seriously sweet video. And, in return for donating, we're offering you all kinds of free stuff, like music from Kanis Lu/Cornbread Children and Mark Deez, autographed memorabilia, and if you're feelin' frisky and wanna help us a LOT, some photo/video work by me, Drew Welsh. PLUS... the end product that you're gonna watch when we're done will be that much cooler. It's a win-win situation.
There are a ton of perks over there in the side-bar... We know you love free stuff.
