For years, Schama Noel has been doing his damn thing. From his beginnings with running the “RapLike” Twitter years ago to transitioning into an artist in his own right, Schama’s always delivered pretty thought-provoking music. The 23-year-old’s latest track, “Thoughts of a Loner, Pt. 2,” continues that trend (or should I say “legacy,” at this […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @GarrisonElijaah Hopes You Make It Worthwhile
Garrison Elijaah’s evolution as an artist is like what you’d get if you mixed up IDK, parts of Chance and J. Cole: abrasive youthfulness with sageful thought processes over uplifting instrumentals–even when he gets down and dirty in the lyrical trenches.
