A very introspective project over some dope instrumentation, VA artist NoFace, Rapper jumps onto the scene with his Wintercoat EP project. I’m a sucker for introspective, emotional bars (listen to most of my music, shameless plug, and you’ll see what I mean), so when this artist popped up on my “XYZ just followed you” notifications, I […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @JarrenBenton – "Jealous of Drake"
I’m sure that folks will think this is a diss, mainly because of the cover. People will see the cover and say “oh damn Jarren Benton calling Drake a bitch” without even getting into the track. But, aside from that, let’s get into it. Why? Because that’s what I do. So, Jarren Benton tells us […]

At least Soulja Boy has something resembling a flow now…I guess, even if his production skills still seem to be stuck on novice FL user, circa 2007. I’m sorry, Soulja. I respect the fact that you’re pretty […]
