So, quick show of (digital) hands. How many of you, intrepid readers, are (and I assume this is still a “trendy” thing to say) “caked up?” Ok. Cool Now, how may of you, intrepid readers, are struggling (even if it’s just a little, with that “good ass job”) and are constantly trying to figure out […]
Read moreNew Music: @BlackTonyRomo – The Back Door
Billz The Young One done effed around and got pissed. That’s really the only way you can describe The Back Door. I guess he got tired of getting Jazz’d by listeners and whatnot and decided to stand up to the Banks family and say “alright, I know it gets the laughs. But, for the last […]

Wiles brings some pretty legit bars. Additionally, both tracks have smoker-friendly vibes, although “PHILLYSHELLDEFENSE” (from *Wiles’ SixBlox project) is a lot darker than “UNIVERSAL.” Visually, I’m a sucker for […]
