A few months ago, I spoke about Roi Lorange’s “EXIT” as being a trippy Auto-Tune rap ride that was incredibly layered and drove me into the song–even as someone who’s not a huge fan of the “Auto-Tune rap” that’s been coming out the past few years. It’s pretty inventive, this track. So, with that said, […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @mikeypromethxan Drops What A Day
Long Beach artist Mikey Promethxan had this one dropped off in my inbox a few days back.

Mississippi rapper L.E.X. hit my inbox with this one. It’s smooth as hell and may make you want to smoke something to ease your mind. However, since I don’t do that, I’ll just take a shot of my chai tea and vibe with the melodic onslaught L.E.X. puts on it. It’s funky and old-school while […]
