Yes, I know Nas dropped. I’ll probably get to that at some point, as I’m still kind of “meh” about these seven-track projects, dope or not. Yes, I know I said that Daytona was good, but my feelings still stand. However, Jay Rock also has a new project out and it’s heat. One of the pieces of […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @SabaPIVOT Drops a "Nice For What" Freestyle
Chicago’s Saba has bars. We know that, but I wanted to reiterate it here. I know you’re expecting me to dissect the track and talk about the multis and his slightly off-kilter flow on this one and all that. Nope. Today, I’m going to just vibe to the track like a listener tends to. Check […]

I can’t believe I almost missed this one from “BosMoreBurgh” artist B.Eveready.

I received the link a few days back, but I feel that this thirteen-track album needs to be featured on Friday the 13th. No, it’s not a horrorcore album or anything. But, it does mark an end to Jay Wyse […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @LJackPower Discusses Darkness and the Aftermath in Debut EP
Lena Jackson returns to SOTBMusic with her debut project, Darkness Brim. The ten-track “EP” definitely lives up to its name, as there are a lot of dark topics and feelings spoke upon and dealt with throughout each song. I love that there is an arc of sorts within this project. Things start out dark and […]
