FFD Premiere: No Face, Rapper – ‘GFNS’ (New Track)
In the last two years the ever versatile No Face, Rapper has blessed me with an incredible single and a top notch EP. The project, Never Fear Rejection, impressed me so much that I wrote an extensive review without any edits. We haven’t been able to link for a FFD premiere yet which has always…

FFD Premiere & Exclusive Interview: REY – ‘Hold Me Back’ (New Track)
Talented singer/songwriter/MC REY doesn’t put out music until it’s perfected. That’s why his latest song, and our newest premiere ‘Hold Me Back’ sounds as good as it does. He kept me in the loop in the entire process, sharing demos and different versions until he was completely happy with this final version. I typically can’t…

FFD Premiere & Exclusive Interview: Connor james – Been Up Freestyle (New Track)
Chicago’s Connor james turned heads last year with The Champagne Tape, which mixed calculated trap beats with his creative lyrical approach and flow.

ILL Gordon Drops Soulful Party Jam ‘Having A Good Time’
I’ve covered Ill Gordon, one of Chicago’s best kept secrets, for years now. He’s vicious on the mic, and a technically skilled emcee. Gordon’s biggest sell is his energetic tracks (and freestyles) that are best represented by last year’s Imma Beast. When I peeped his latest submission, Having a Good Time, I was surprised – but…

Vince Verza & Sherpa Quietly Drop One Of The Best Chicago Collabs Of The Year
Sherpa was first brought to my attention this March as a submission to his incredible beat tape. Sherpa’s instrumentals were dynamic, and a breath of fresh air in innovation.

Illect Recordings’ Sundance Steps Out On His Own With Debut Single ‘The Last Sunrise’
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Illect Recordings is one of the best independent hip hop labels in the country. Not only do they host dope music, but often put out cassettes, CDs, and vinyl for their drops. Another gem has come out of the camp – this time from Sundance. The multi-faceted,…

FFD Premiere: Lam. – ‘Kno U’ (New Track)
I’ve known Lam, and most importantly, his steady musical output for a number of years now. He resides in the sunny state of California; a spot I’m the least familiar with among all of the artists I’ve worked with. Luckily, Lam. personifies all that LA has to offer. Yes, the emcee loves hip hop, and can…
