In 2018, I want to do things a bit differently for SpeedontheBeat.com. Yes, we’ll still do #SOTBMusic and PA and (maybe) WIRTB and all that fun stuff. That’ll never stop. But, I also want to use my platform to help others get on elsewhere. So, with that in mind, I reached out to Joe Coad […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @JayVerze Talks About the Master Plan in New Release
Jay Verze is a versatile artist who definitely knows how to put a song together. That’s exactly what we get with his newest track, “Master Plan.” A laid-back, boss flow over a somewhat laid-back instrumental, “Master Plan” is a catchy tune about bossing up on haters and those who’ve doubted over the years.

I’ve got some new fire from DMV artist Kay Frank$ featuring SOTBMusic mainstay NishoSoul. I like this one because of its gritty nature and the bars presented. On top of that, the message of being real in a system of assholes and fakes? That’s something I can definitely get behind. So, check it out below […]

Happy New Year from the SpeedontheBeat.com family. In 2018, we’re going to continue the movements we’ve started in 2017 and before. Oh, wait…we’ve got a few hours left in 2017. Well, that’s great because I’ve got The Couny’s last song of 2017, “Outside,” ready for your listening pleasure. The Chuck Kennedy-produced slow burner features Charlie […]
