Grupo HNE are “Black Angels” in new video
Grupo HNE have released a new video this morning combining two of their singles “Black Angels / Big Pictures.” Directed by Box Lo this two-fer also features guest verse/appearances by fellow Miami artists Shottie (on “Black Angels”) and Money Mogly (on “Big Pictures”). Bringing a Spanglish element to their boom-bap Grupo HNE (pronounced Henny) features DJ Exes as emcee as well as producer DJ Heron and multi-instrumentalist Nando (percussion, keyboards, vocals).
Speaking on “Black Angels” Exes said “the sample was taken from legendary band Los Angelos Negro and the vocal sample basically means ‘you wouldn’t dare’ I took it from there. There are three verses on this song. This is barely done anymore due to attention spans not being what they used to but the song dared me, so challenge accepted.”
Regarding “Big Pictures” he added “the song is inspired by a picture of my mother that I walk by when I visit her. To me, the picture reminds me of rough times when I was younger. Even though the perception of those times was bad, my mother gave us a positive outlook, saying good times are around the corner.”
In addition the group also recently released a video for the single “The Palmetto” also featuring close comrade Orion. All of these recent releases will culminate in the release of the group’s debut LP, Calle HNE to drop in late June.

Long-time listeners to Kingdom Kome’s projects will notice that he has unlocked a new chamber lyrically in this release. The emcee said “It’s a more spiritually focused album. I wanted to touch on a lot more esoteric and occult sciences on this one.” This extends to the subtitle Ein Sof which in terms of Kabbalah (the ancient Hebrew mystical practice that explores the nature of God and the Universe) which translates as “the endless one.” As Kingdom Kome states “there’s breadcrumbs throughout the album for people to do their own research.
