Rob Hicks – Perception (New Track)
Rob Hicks evokes 5 personalities in his new track Perception. There’s dark cooing, high pitched vocal stretching, a squeaky distorted background and even toned rapping.

Dre King – God Bless (New Track)
First off: I hope everyone had a blessed holiday. I traveled to Atlanta to see my entire family. I hadn’t seen everyone in quiet some time and it was a beautiful experience. There is so much to be thankful for. there are always certain issues in every family…but there is love no matter what. We…
