Assemble Sound-affiliated artist Jaye Prime gives some sexy vibes on this new track. “Late Lights” sees the Dream-inspired songstress reassuring that she’s sticking by you through the long haul. I love the bigness of the chorus, as it hammers home that aforementioned point. Melodically, Jaye makes this song her own, especially through some of the […]

Baltimore City College’s class of 2006 is ripe with talented folks. I know I’ve probably said that time and time again. However, every time I say it, someone else pops up with either a tasty jam (shameless plug), a new initiative to better the community, a series of books, a new article of clothing, and so […]

dvsn returns with a sexy, bass-heavy ditty about a relationship that’s destined to fail, but still work (somehow). There’s not much else to say. I could go into the switches back and forth between sexy vibes and soulful questioning of the relationship. As I said, this one will probably be a pantywetter for some folks […]
