As mentioned in my piece on Brain’s “Roller Coaster,” he’s been on a different vibe for this project. Keeping the bars dope, Brain flows over a track that offers some cautionary advice to those in his way. “Protect Your Neck” is held together by a brass-and-harp-heavy production from Steven Padilla, which allows the DMV native […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @NoFaceRapper Doesn’t Care About "Grammys" in New Song
Over a booming production from The Cratez, NoFace, Rapper declares that he’s here to stay–Grammy or not. Even if the bars don’t work, he’s got backup plans set in motion (which is pretty forward thinking of NoFace). But, he just jumps into the track “like an action star” to deliver some screwface-worthy flows and bars. […]

I got this one in my inbox from Joe Hova, who’s been hitting my ears and eyes with some dopeness recently.

This one is no exception as the “summertime in Cali”-themed single also doubles as a how-to guide for other indie artists. Over a pretty sick instrumental from Zach Striar, TOPE delivers some of the dopest bars I’ve […]

I’ve got some new bars from DC’s Muggsy Malone. If you want punchlines and multis that don’t exist just to show off skill, here you go. Muggsy chose to spit over one of the hottest tracks from 4:44 and he ends up doing it justice. There is not a line on here that doesn’t have a […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @heyamine Says Good For You in New Album
I’m going to keep this one short and let you get back to enjoying the music. Besides, I’m already late on this one. Amine must’ve taken notes from Millie Jackson on Good For You, aside from the Back to the Sh*t-homaging album cover. This album is free-spirited, fun, but still grounded enough to grab your […]
