Zip Dot Is Back With A Bar Heavy Track & Video, “Midnight”
Zip Dot has had a landmark year. The Chicago MC has dropped 10 songs in 2017 alone, and none have missed the mark. With the help of both SoundCloud and YouTube, Zip has built a strong (and growing) fan base. If you’ve been rocking with us for awhile, you already know I’m a huge fan of his work…

Loren, femdot. & Flight Link For A Classic Chicago Collab in “Fake Deep 2”
Loren has proven his versatility as an MC and performer. It’s been years since he dropped his standout EP Famous, and has only grown in his artistry. Many fans of artists are mad when they change their sound or direction, and I find it unfair. We all grow as people as the years go by,…
