“X History” is the new video from Point Blank’s new album of the same name.

The long-awaited album will be distributed through Entertainment One (eOne) which was released on November 6, 2012, leading up to the Day of Remembrance – a relevant theme within the lyrics and visual elements of the X-History video. The track is written and performed solo by Stump Gets; one-sixth of the Point Blank group, who said:
X-History video pays homage to the pre-revitalization Regent Park neighbourhood, the stomping grounds of the Point Blank group. Known for using their art as a form resistance, the single and video represents the not only untold stories of past Regent Park community members, but also recognizes the stories of other communities and nations that the group identifies with.
“Alone” is the lead single from Angerville and royceBIRTH’s collaborative EP, Prelude to a Sequel.
This new Angerville video ‘Alone’ showcases stunning special effects and hard hitting lyrics touching on the struggles that come with being an independent artist. MC’s Conscious Thought and Fortunato detail the long hard road that comes with being a self contained entity in the music business.
