Once this one kicks in, you’re taken on a crazy-ass ride. That usually is the synopsis for any Royce 5’9″ track. This one is no different. Opting to “go Ted Bundy” on one of Summer Sixteen’s biggest hits, Royce kicks this one’s head in. With lines such as “I got something for you crooked cops/Turn […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic from @JColeNC, @YourOldDroog and @GoodbyeTomorrow – The Catch-Up
So, this weekend, we got new J. Cole and new…Soulja Boy. The best and worst of both worlds.

Too many releases today. I’m gonna go broke collecting everything. Well, not really, but the point is this: December 9th is a dope-ass day to be a music fan. On top of new Cole, CH, and everyone else dropping today, we get some new Ab-Soul. The “Black-Lipped Bastard” came out swinging on everyone and everything […]
