I fell in love with Logic during his Young Sinatra mixtape run. His incredible lyricism, impeccable flow and 90’s influence lead me to write an article naming him the Best Rapper Without An Album Out in 2014. When his debut dropped it was one of the best rap releases of the year. But since then, his projects just haven’t hit the…

As you probably noticed, SoundCloud has been tinged with yellow in the last few days. Why you may wonder? Because its community is celebrating its champion, its beloved prince, its brightest rising star, chromonicci, and his sparkling debut, Bounce Back. With all the madness that went down during his year, from the infamous robbery to his graduation, this project has…

Yesterday’s unexpected release of Eminem’s tenth studio album Kamikaze is undoubtedly the biggest surprise in music of 2018. The first lines of ‘The Ringer’ read “I’m just gonna write down my first thoughts, see where this takes me, ’cause I feel like I wanna punch the world in the fuckin’ face right now”, setting the stage for the bomb Em…

Young Sinatra is back! After teasing “the old Logic” on ‘Warm It Up’ and ‘The Return’ Logic once again brings out his Young Sinatra alter ego on his brand new freestyle ‘YSIV’. The track sees him picking up where the Young Sinatra series left off, going in over a classic (‘Bring The Pain’). The two minute flow is a lyrical barrage…

With J. Cole’s KOD Tour kicking off in Miami on Thursday, he’s opted to set the internet on fire ahead of the first show with a new freestyle. ‘Album Of The Year’ sees Cole going in for 2 minutes over Nas’ ‘Oochie Wally’ beat. Despite its short length its rich with bars giving us flashes of mixtape Cole while mixing in…

Last month we named Rome in Silver as one of the top artists to watch in our Focus Five segment. It seems we weren’t the only ones with our eye on the California producer. UZ’s Quality Goods Records is known for having a keen eye for talent as well and they’ve proven it yet again by scooping up Rome in…

Chance The Rapper is back! Earlier this week rumors of a new Chance album dropping this week were running rampant until Chance took to Twitter to shut them down. But just because a new album isn’t here (yet) it doesn’t mean Chance wasn’t good to his word for dropping new music. Today we’ve been blessed with 4 stellar new Chance…

Champagne Back! 2018 has been a whirlwind for Drake. Not only has he been crushing the charts with ‘God’s Plan’ and ‘Nice for What’ but he’s been in a highly publicized beef with Pusha T. Nonetheless, that hasn’t slowed the Toronto rapper from dropping his 5th studio album (not including mixtapes or collaborative projects). Scorpion boasts 25 tracks and is considered…

Lido has done it again. The genius producer has reworked Kanye West & Kid Cudi’s Kids See Ghosts and even some Ye. into a seven minute epic. If the idea sounds familiar, it’s because he put together a similar work for the The Life Of Pablo. ‘kidsloveghosts’ pulls elements and sounds from Kids See Ghosts and combines them with original production and…

The Carters. Whoa – out of the Blue (see what I did there?) Beyoncé and Hov dropped a new collaborative album. Featuring 9 tracks with production from Boi-1da, Cool & Dre and Pharrell to name a few, the surprise album on first listen is pretty damn dope. Click above for the ‘APESHIT’ video and check out the album in full…
