For episode #18, we’re highlighting Dylan Chambers. Dylan Chambers? Who is Dylan Chambers? I have no idea myself, but one listen to this song and I instantly, and I mean instantly, was rooting for it to blow up. Whether that be via social media, as a movie soundtrack, or whatever. I just want more music…

I love the rap music genre, but I never could get into trap or drill music. That, or the type of songs that feature very similar sounding beats that rely heavily on bass along with the rappers mumble rapping and whatnot. Heck, I can’t even get into the more popular southern type raps that are…

Sometimes you come across a song that is so criminally unknown or underrated that, well, it’s almost a crime in itself. All it took was one listen, and I was instantly hooked. It wouldn’t be a surprise to me that the song most likely was a top ten hit at some point or another. What…

I’m sorry, Hong Kong’ers, but I’m hearing a lot more catchy and memorable songs coming out of Taiwan each week on Spotify, and it’s not even close. A lot of the songs coming out of Hong Kong from the playlist I’ve subscribed to on Spotify are just plain boring. Whereas in Taiwan, their R&B hits…

RBG! RBG! Say it with me…RBG! Revolutionary but Gangsta! Back in the days, after the shutdown of Napster but prior to streaming services like Spotify, purchasing physical music CDs was actually a thing.

Tennessee is known for country music and whiskey. But if you ask hip-hop heads, they’ll likely say that the state is also known for being the home of the legendary group, Three 6 Mafia. Them boys were wild back then. They had a ton of classics. When the Smoke Clears: Sixty 6, Sixty 1 and…

It was with great pride when I first listened to Field Mob’s debut album, 613: Ashy to Classy, when it first debuted. Their southern charm, grammar, and lyrics were refreshingly different in a year that was dominated by the likes of radio-friendly hits such as Nelly’s Country Grammar, Jay-Z’s Big Pimpin’, and Dr. Dre’s The…

Know which hip-hop trio supergroup have just two albums under their belt and yet still had a “best of” album compilation? Westside Connection. That’s right. The trio consisting of Mack 10, Ice Cube and WC have put out some bangers for the West Coast. Their first album together went platinum, and their second went gold.…

There’s a reason why The LOX is one of the most respected hip-hop trio groups of all time. They’ve been doing it for almost three decades now. It’s obvious their stock has risen tremendously after their Verzuz battle with Dipset. It’s crazy, but if you look at their album catalog spanning the decades, they’ve only…

We’re taking it back to New York in episode #9! Specifically, we’re heading to the Bed-Stuy neighborhood in Brooklyn. One rapper who represents Bed-Stuy to the fullest has got to be Maino. In fact, I just found out that August 16 is officially dedicated as Maino day! Maino was definitely a controversial type of dude.…
