Between 2015 and 2016, I released three albums, Baltimore Commercial Break, Unhinged, and my final SOTB project The Sorest Loser. I made mention of these projects belonging to a collection called “The Baltimore Trilogy,” as all three were deeply rooted in my time in Baltimore before, during, and after my mother’s death. These albums documented […]

TwonDon releases the visuals to “Successful” from Paradise Isn’t Free. The “letter to my younger self” visuals help give a new life to the song, one of the standouts on the project. Check it out below and remember to support dope music in all its forms.

You’re probably expecting a full-on review of Bryson Tiller’s new album True To Self. That’s not happening. For once, I had to get a bit of sleep when highly-anticipated albums dropped on the random.
