Musa Reems Drops Flodge’ As The First Single Off Upcoming Project
Chicago mainstay Musa Reems can do it all. He’s proven that in the last few years with bursts of short EP’s that are incredible works of art, AND never sound the same. His lyrical game is ALWAYS on point – he can rap on any beat, and his creative mind has grown with every drop.…

After A Brief Hiatus, Shon Goner Returns With His Finest Offering Yet – ‘Like This’
Philly’s finest Shon Goner dropped a hell of a debut album last August that I wrote about extensively. The project was full of club ready, r&b centric bangers that were catchy & innovative. Shon can sing, rap, and put together cohesive albums and creative singles. He’s been gone for a minute, working on some personal issues…

Jarrett Rad Drops Infectious, Yet Dark Single ‘Adore Me’
Jarrett Rad is such a blessing to the Chicago music scene. The young talent knows how to make a god damn jam, no matter the subject matter. Jarrett turns a rather simple scenario (a girl who didn’t fuck with him now does) into an infectious, off the top meditation behind a HEYJEANPAUL instrumental. As Adore Me progresses,…

TR0Y W0NDER Uses Creativity As A Means Of Self Expression On ‘Bloodrot’
Sometimes the world becomes too much for us to handle, and seclusion seems to be the only option. No matter how extroverted you are, we all need breaks from the stress and strain of friends, family, work, and relationships. I thought about this while listening to TR0Y W0NDER’s new track Bloodrot.

Veteran MC’s Abyss, Dese, & Mic.ill. Link For C-Lance Produced Banger ‘Beast Mode’
If this beat by C-Lane fails to bring you a surge of adrenaline, something’s up. The instrumental serves as the backing for Beast Mode, a record featuring veteran MC’s Abyss, Dese, and Mic.ill. All 3 have a unique set of skills, but their wordplay, flow, and cadence are all A-1. Yes, they brag and boast, but…

Tom Moore Drops Another Impressive Cut Off Upcoming Album ‘Can’t Sleep’
MF DOOM and Aesop Rock have die-hard fans, and if you’re a hip hop pursuit you’ll understand why. Check their catalogue, interviews, album reviews and the UGHH message boards and get back to me. Tom Moore is a descendent, or perhaps a disciple, of what DOOM, Aesop, and the “underground” stand for. Last week, after a…

ILLECT RECORDING’s James Gardin & Terem Team Up For New Track ‘Groove’ (Review)
ILLECT Recordings signee’s James Gardin and Terem recently teamed up for a funky, new record titled Groove. Terem brings out the best in James and his half-sung raps and catchy chorus. Groove has potential, but it’s lacking polish. James often goes off-key, and the volume of his voice changes rapidly. I’m not sure if that’s due…
