Chicago artist ANXT gives us a dope two-part “untitled” track that dives into the mastery of bars and just a combination of hip-hop and testimony. ANXT has been one of my favorite artists out, but this one definitely is something that should keep your ears and eyes open on this young man’s journey. The command […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @Precyce and @achilles_hill are Stallone & Weathers
If you’re looking for some dope bars mixed with some sample-heavy instrumentation, check out the debut EP from Stallone & Weathers. The duo, created as an homage of the chemistry between Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed, consists of Brooklyn-bred MC Precyce Politix and North Carolina-based producer K-Hill. The EP is grimy (in a good way) […]

I got hip to this one via Reyna (who’s got a pretty dope ear for music on top of being pretty dope outside of that). This D.C. artist presents for us a slightly intergalactic, story-driven song that keeps it chill. It’s a real smoker-friendly track that has lyrics that just float across the instrumental like […]

Bars still matter. That’s the mindset the trio of 90Wyse, NoFace, Rapper, and Geronimo have on this three-track EP from the newly-christened 9GN. The EP is dark and heavy in its approach, intentionally so. However, Cerberus still has enough to it that it’ll have you nodding your head to each track, either for the gritty production […]

North Carolina artist C.Shreve the Professor returns with the new project Daddy Love To Rap. Shreve mentioned that this project is more aligned with just finding dope beats (most of which are produced by NC producers, by the way, to keep things in-state) and just ripping them to shreds. Well, let me say this. This […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @Eminem Drops Polarizing Single "Untouchable"
I haven’t been a big fan of Eminem’s drops from the upcoming Revival. “Walk on Water” was weak, even with the Beyonce assist (in fact, Beyonce was pretty much the best part of the song). The track listing seems weak and on some Recovery shit in its pop-catering sensibilities. With that said, I thought that the […]
