As mentioned in my piece on Brain’s “Roller Coaster,” he’s been on a different vibe for this project. Keeping the bars dope, Brain flows over a track that offers some cautionary advice to those in his way. “Protect Your Neck” is held together by a brass-and-harp-heavy production from Steven Padilla, which allows the DMV native […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @TheCouny Might Battle Wu-Tang in New Single
The Couny continue to switch up their style on each track. From a flip of the Sister, Sister theme to a booming All That tribute, we can expect a different sound each time The Couny hops on a track. This time, we get a bass-heavy anthem track that further introduces the “hip-hop sitcom network’s” Kenan and Kel. The […]

Portland’s Cool Nutz gets on this piano-heavy production and brings Illmaculate and Mistah FAB along for the ride. So, does it ride? Oh, yeah. Between the bars and the production, you’re given a pretty tasty jam in which there’s a proclamation of originality. That’s balanced out between reality-tinged lines and all three artists riding on […]

The Dude Clayy-produced “Pay Back” features backmasked synths and flute sounds to provide us with a dark atmosphere needed to deliver bars about getting the money right (and keeping it right).

Over a booming production from The Cratez, NoFace, Rapper declares that he’s here to stay–Grammy or not. Even if the bars don’t work, he’s got backup plans set in motion (which is pretty forward thinking of NoFace). But, he just jumps into the track “like an action star” to deliver some screwface-worthy flows and bars. […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @weirdojep Talks About Those Who Tried to Break Him in New Track
Between workity-work and transcribing the Drizzle Sez interview (part two comes tomorrow at 10AM), I got this tasty jam from New England-based artist Jep Roadie. One of three tracks recently released from Jep’s Tomorrow Wuz Great project, “Tried To Break Me” combines some boombappy feelings providing a background for a track about trying to stay […]
