Itch FM – Dedicated to Hip Hop
Rapper Big Pooh brings you visuals for “Stop” produced by Apollo Brown. The visuals conveys the on-going oppression on the Black community by the police force in the U.S.
Big Pooh was a former member of the acclaimed North Carolina hip hop group Little Brother and in recent times he signed a two album deal with independent label Mello Music Group.

The track Stop is lifted from Pooh’s latest project entitled Words Paint Pictures EP, which dropped March 2015 on Mellow Music Group.
The new project is entirely produced by Apollo Brown and features the likes of Ras Kass, Blakk Soul, Steve Roxx, Marv Won and more.
The guest list helps buoy Pooh and Apollo’s vision into the third dimension. Ras Kass indicts everyone from the media to Obama for the mess we’re in. Gorgeous and raw hooks come from Steve Roxx and Eric “Blakk Soul” Keith.” L’Orange contributes an unsettling remix and Detroit representative Marv Won exhales fire.
But at heart, you return to the words, the pictures, and the complications inherent in the soul. You might have previously known Big Pooh best for his work in Little Brother, but this is the most powerful music he’s ever made. Mining deeply into the personal, he’s created something profound and universal.
