Every time I hear a “Mask Off” remix, it’s like rappers are just consistently trying to one-up each other on it. It’s this year’s “Control,” which is both good and bad (mainly because that’s all we’re getting is remixes of it). All we need now is for Big K.R.I.T. to come out and say that […]
Read moreNew (To Me) SOTBMusic: @ClrConscience – On A Mission
Baltimore’s ClrConscience hit me up recently to check out this song from his Strictly 4 My Negus project. The track is a dope look into the mind of a man who’s trying to uplift those around him. The production is simple and to the point. It’s brash and brassy, but still smooth enough that you […]

If you’re in the mood for some Baltimore-centric hip-hop, not too many DMV-centric sites put on for the city like they do. But, enough doting. Let’s get into the music. Baltimore’s Jenni Dimepeace reminds me of the […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @TheDemoTape_ – Welcome to Baltimore Playlist
I’m Baltimore-born through and through. But, living away from my hometown for the past decade or so, I’ve been in and out of the loop with regards to what’s hot musically. I keep my thumb on the pulse, but sometimes–mainly because of familial obligations–I let it slip and I may miss a dope track here […]
