Now, you know that I love DITC. So, I was all set to do a retro review on Bobby Brown’s first album King of Stage. I mean, not as many fans are aware of it (unless you know the entire history of NE; and even the recent BET movie–which was pretty encompassing for a six-hour […]

New music from the brother JusXJustice. I’m always the one for some dope vibes, doubly so if they’re positive and uplifting. And “It Be Okay,” in these crazy times, does not disappoint. Check it out below.
