I can’t believe there is only 6 weeks left in Mpulse’s 52 week campaign. One song per week for A YEAR. We’ve been covering the campaign extensively, almost from the beginning, and I can’t believe it’s coming to an end. In Pulse’s newest he gets his Kanye on, dubbing the rest of the competition “regular.”…

Chicago’s Jay Wood Gives No Hesitation on His Femdot and Chulo Assisted Single ‘Right Now.’
Having the right connects can do wonders for artists in the music industry. But what if those connects actually fucked with your music? That is the case for fresh new talent Jay Wood. He’s built friendships with a host of Chicago players, including Malcolm London, Jamila Woods, and Femdot respectively, but he’s been putting in the…
