Dugee F. Buller has returned with a four-track EP, Pimps, Drug Lords, Cult Leaders, and War Criminals. The project features Buller dropping knowledge like only he can, in a way that’s both alert and disarming. The track “Dope Man” starts off like a mid-90s Southern dedication to the dealer, but then takes a turn that […]

I was in the middle of publishing my thoughts on Logic’s newest album when I came across Yoh Phillips’ 1 Listen Review of Confessions of a Dangerous Mind.

Charlie Too Much delves into the signs of love (making?) on his newest release, “Sucker for a Sag,” produced by Six08. While I’m more partial to an Aquarius (I’m about to marry one), I still love this track. I’m a huge fan of the flow switch on this one, as we’re given a more punchy […]
