My plugs for DAR are never shameful. Dope music is dope music, regardless of if it’s from my boys or if it’s from someone else. Now that we got that out the way, my DAR brother True God gives us a story about his rise to where he is. Clocking in a bit over three […]
Read moreNew Music: @StvnLmnt – "Sincerely…"
New EP from Steven Lamont. I love the instrumentals on the project. On top of that, Lamont’s lyricism and comfortability in flow are showing a lot of growth from his earlier project. Check it out below and tell him how you’re feeling about the track by linking with him on social media.

I’m loving the alternative vibes on it. It’s party-sensible while still being on some empowerment stuff.

Cruz. The duo’s first track, “Three Words,” is a […]

Well, the baby.daddi EP finally dropped over the weekend. The T.E.A.O.-produced track, “All That I Want,” is, in a word, sexy. In three, it’s […]
Read more@raury x @BigKRIT – "Forbidden Knowledge"
I’ll let it be known: I’m not the biggest Raury fan. I think he’s talented, and I enjoy his music. However, at times, his knowledge gets lost amidst awkward production choices, songs that are good, but seem like they’re trying too hard to be folky and abstract, or over-wordiness. On his newest leak, “Forbidden Knowledge,” […]
