Support dope music in all its forms. Figured I’d get that out the way before we get into this new Kendrick Lamar visual for “ELEMENT.” I wanted to post about this one before the folks over at Genius dissected every ounce of it and made this piece of art into an even deeper piece of […]

Joyner Lucas dropped his first official project a new mixtape that–according to him–isn’t his debut album, 508-507-2209, this week. I could do two things here.

Earlier in the week, I offered up five things that I wanted from Kendrick Lamar’s then-upcoming DAMN. album. Well, today is judgment day. DAMN. is finally a thing.
