Over two years ago, I came in contact with Virginia’s Nighlawn and her Purple Elixir project. It was, to put it mildly, one of my favorite projects of 2016. Over the next few years, I heard rumblings about the follow-up and other moves she had coming down the pipeline. As with anything, you can’t rush […]
Read moreNew (To Me) SOTBMusic: @OfficialBill757 Pays Homage to Jay Z on Song Cry
What often distinguishes SOTBMusic from other music reviewers and the like is that I don’t really mind if a song is a few months old; as long as it bangs and makes me feel something, age ain’t nothing but a number, song-wise. I say that because Norfolk’s own Official Bill hit me with a track, […]

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. […]
Read moreNew SOTBMusic: @TheFuryMCs – B.I.B. (Visuals)
Virginia’s The Fury MCs return to the scene with visuals to their track “B.I.B” (Bitch I’m Back). The visuals switch back between Rome and Dre standing in a walkway, rapping their verses and performing. I enjoyed the laid-back nature of this one, mainly because it serves as an introduction to the duo. You can learn […]
