Jay Wyse (@jay_wyse) – Seen It All (Wyse Wednesday Freestyle)
Baltimore artist Jay Wyse continues his Wyse Wednesday series with a freestyle/revision of Jeezy’s smash “Seen It All.” Wyse had one of the top ten albums/mixtapes out of the area last year, and that wasn’t just Al Shipley’s opinion. Anyhow, check it out and be sure to support indie music and #ChooseWysely.

Cooley of the Fly Rebel Society (@FlyRebelSociety) released his first single, “Crazy,” off of his first solo project, #47. Featuring Tupac-as-Bishop-from Juice quips, Cooley flows effortlessly over a chill, turn-up beat.

In the midst of #DeathoftheKing Week and #TeamDARWeek, I was able to speak with an artist who I’ve featured on this blog and others quite a bit, Jay IDK.
