"M.I. – “STONED” VIDEO"

Unless you’re married to Amber Rose, making a song about how much weed you smoke isn’t really helping your cause these days. However, despite the overabundance of odes to herb and the hesitation you might have going into this video from M.I. for his blatantly-named “Stoned,” you’re in for a treat with the goods this up & coming Austin MC delivers. The lead single from his recently-released project The Coldplay Sessions finds it’s potency in M-Dot’s admittance his costly habit can be counterproductive, via an impeccable flow that glides over a well-flipped sample of the UK super-group’s song, “Don’t Panic.” Couple that with an easy-going, catchy chorus and you’ve got a song worth your four minutes.

If the rest of the project carries this much honesty and displays the same amount of talent, a trip over to DJBooth for the rest of the Sessions might be in order. - SmokingSection.uproxx.com

"Video: M.i “Nothing”"

Earlier this year, Austin rapper/producer M.i dropped his latest street release, The Coldplay Sessions. The project featured 15 songs all based around samples of Coldplay records. I gave it a few spins, and was pleasantly surprised by it (get it via DJ Booth ). Today, we get a video for the standout track of the album “Nothing” which features a flip of Coldplay’s “Yes.” Video directed by the homie aaronisnotcool. - OkayPlayer.com
