Welp – we’ve found another killer rapper out of Chicago. There’s even better news…imyNoah is a student at my almamater Columbia College.

Kid Marquis – Southside Hero (New Track)
Another day, another SoundCloud discovery. Even before I pressed play on the new record from Chicago’s Kid Marquis, I noticed the song’s cover art. It’s exceptional; chosen I’m sure for very specific reasons. It matches the self production of Southside Hero well, incorporating dreary and dark bass, and deep sampled vocals. Marquis makes a compelling…

Breeze – Trillmatic Freestyle (New Track + Video)
Freestyles tend to be on the shorter side – but the West Side of Chicago rapper + producer Breeze strays away from this trend. His new freestyle to A$AP Mob’s 2013 single Trillmatic, is 4 minutes long; and there are no spaces in-between. Director Rickee Arts provides a gritty, 90’s nostalgic visual, (shot in 4K resolution)…

Jimmy Pham – Room 202 (New EP + Extensive Review)
R&B artists experiment from time to time with distorted vocals, abstract beats, and occasionally both. But, it’s a rare occurrence when a vocalist breaks boundaries throughout an entire project. Although Jimmy Pham’s newest EP Room 202 is only 3 full tracks, (there are 3 interludes) every facet of the project is in a realm of it’s…
