Up-and-coming Philly artist Young Rell 215 dropped this one a little while ago. However, it’s new to me so I’m going to talk on it. The first thing that jumps out to me is that it’s like Freeway mixed with Meek, flow-and-emotion-wise. Since I still love Freeway’s flow and music, I’m here for anyone who […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @JoynerLucas Delves into Race Relations in I’m Not Racist
A raw conversation on race relations that hits the nail through the wood and back out the other side, Joyner Lucas’ “I’m Not Racist” isn’t a 10000000% perfect analysis of what it means to be Black (and what it means to not understand being Black) in America.

A great track with some cool and to-the-point visuals, “Low Tides” helps complete the story told in the actual song. Check […]

Newish music from Baltimore’s Nellz GC is now live. “Glory” could’ve turned out to be your typical “started from the bottom” track.
