The “I Got You, Homieloverfriend” track is a part of hip-hop history as much as boombap and mob ties (no, not those “Mob Ties”). It’s a critical part of any artist who’s worth their weight in salt’s repertoire. Regardless your affiliation or orientation or what have you, we all need love and we all want to […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @Deal_TheVillain Hops on Madlib Beats to Create Jackson Jones
Keeping up with the gritty bars hears from Droog and Conway, I got this one in my inbox from Jersey’s own Deal The Villain. Jackson Jones is a 15-track EP-ish project (the length is EP-like, but each song packs a full-length-sized punch with it) from the Jersey native and it’s a pretty sweet collection of tracks. […]

This is dark, pantywetter music with a throwback twist. It feels like The Weeknd stumbled upon Jodeci and decided to cover the entire discography. That’s probably the best way to describe Morning After without giving too much away or saying a bunch of gobbledygook to make myself look “smart.” And even then, I’m not doing the […]

H/T to Benny Universe for sending this my way. “Medicinal” is a track about love, lust, and its drug-like effect. This dreamy wave of a track is amazing. The way that Gallo and Samson complement each other is beautiful, especially over the sparsely-produced track. Gallo’s unique voice definitely shines through on this one. So, as […]
Read moreNew (To Me) SOTBMusic: @Alex_Wiley x @ChancetheRapper x @itsthecons x @chuckisdope x @GLCTHEISM – Spaceship III
This is a slightly older track (by a few days). But, when you get two-thirds of the original “Spaceship” on a track with Chance and Chuck Inglish? I believe it’s safe to say Alex Wiley won the internet when this one dropped. Lyrically? It’s on point and evolves the concept of Kanye’s original College Dropout cut. […]
Read moreNew To Me SOTBMusic: @NayomiRosina – In The 9 (Mixtape Stream)
You may’ve heard Nayomi on Benny Universe’s “You,” which dropped this weekend over on the site. But, what you may not know is this: she’s got a project of her own. In The 9 is a nine-track project released over the course of nine weeks. The project highlights Rosina’s songwriting abilities and voice. So, if you […]
