James Ross – Get Lifted (New Track)
I want to first extend my apologies to James Ross. I completely slept on his submission from over a month ago. I’m not sure how I missed it, but I did you all a disservice not to post it. To make up for it, I’ve made the stretch to post it although it was released…

Chrisjaan LeMann – Tithes (New EP)
**SoundCloud has been messing up lately, and I’ve not been able to embed correctly. You can stream the project here. It’s a bit ironic that the cover art for Chrisjaan LeMann’s newest EP is almost identical to J. Cole’s Forest Hill Drive.

Wil Akogu + Colin McGinn – Star (Acoustic Performance)
Hip hop can be an aggressive genre. Bass heavy and vulgar music seems to be the trend of 2017, with xxxtentacion being the perfect example. His music has permeated music blogs, has broken streaming records, and is relentlessly talked about on social media. There are few rappers who concentrate on using their music to empower.

Breeze – Let Em Know (Prod By Tha Shipmates) (The Best Song You’ll Hear All Day)
It’s a gorgeous Sunday here in the city of Chicago, and I’m enjoying every minute of it. I’ve been playing smooth hip hop from the likes of Tribe Called Quest, Curren$y, and vocalist Sampha. It’s barely 1pm, and this has been the best Sunday in recent memory. Going through submissions has taken some time, but thanks…

If you’ve been following the blog for a while, you’ll know we are HUGE fans of rapper Marko Stat$ and super producer Aced Spade. Both are some of the brightest underground stars in hip hop, period. Marko releases music sparingly, but it’s all worth the wait and for the greater good. He’s been working with…
