Coming to us from the Bay Area by way of Delaware, JM Vercetti’s Family Game Night is, just as the cover suggests, a look into the life and upbringing of the indie artist. Bringing a mix between East and West Coast sensibilities, Vercetti gives listeners danceable tracks while still imparting knowledge and lyrical tracks that never […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @Dashcito Shows Us He’s Slick in New Visuals
This one reminds me of what’d happen if you mixed Too $hort with Pimp C and raised the result in Baltimore. It’s smooth and “smoke sumn”-ready, but still imparts some young man knowledge. I’m a big fan of the DIY visuals, as they’re directed by himself and Christopher “Solo” Smith. The single’s visuals follow Dashcito […]

This one is purely mood music with great bars in between the mood. Supa Bwe’s orchestrated production takes center stage for most of the track, while Lee Sahir’s bars bookend the track.

But, add in the bonus that it’s a SZA cover and we’re taken to another level of greatness. So, enough of me fanboying […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @NishoSoul Talks on His Tilted Halo in New Track
Nisho conjures up thoughts of Common and J. Cole on this one for me. Overall, I’m a fan of the two-step-friendly vibes (and production). Lyrically, it’s a track about finding a real one while not compromising yourself. And, I’m totally here for it. So, check out “Tilted Halo” below and remember to always support dope […]
