Single Review - “Sad Bitch, Bad Bitch” by Iyla
“Sad Bitch, Bad Bitch” by Iyla is a creative blend between trap beats and R&B lyrics. In some way, trap and R&B have always remained flirtatious.
Review - “WHAT?” by Throwaway
"WHAT?" Is fast, frenetic, organically chaotic, and very loud. Carey at the helm preaches messages of defiance, while helping organize a project of work that rivals any body of work released this year.
Artist Interview- Lamia
Over the weekend, I had the opportunity to interview singer Lamia. We discussed her 2021 project, “Ever After.” We also discussed her artistry roots, musical inspirations, and upcoming projects.
Album Review - “When the Good Starts to Fade” by Fernando Silverio Solis
“When the Good Starts to Fade” by Fernando Silverio Solis, for lack of better words, feels comfortable. In a simple three-track project, Solis’ finds the visceral, emotional release that accompanies the mental rollercoasters associated with nostalgia.
Song Review - “New Drip” by Chev
New Drip.” By Chev is a gleeful shit-talking-fuck-you-up anthem, as Chev provides defiant bars that showcase her beyond artistry and enters a realm of standing firm on moral principalities.
Single Review- “Hypnotizing” by Ripjacub
“Hypnotizing” by Ripjacub features much of the classic formulas associated with the popularized tunes of club-ready, love-struck R&B tracks.
Song Review - “Living Is Hard, Dying Is Easy.” By DK Ph@ntom!
“Living Is Hard, Dying Is Easy.” By DK Ph@ntom! is a complex series of bars that illustrate the often fantasy-driven rhymes associated with the fiction of 1998’s Eminem and the dark themes of the late rapper xxxtentacion.
Single Review - “Troo” by Langston Bristol
“Troo” by Langston Bristol featuring Curtis Roach is a playful, light-hearted song referencing a straightforward appreciation to loyal friends, family, and fans alike.
Artist Interview- Kyle Mack
I had a chance to catch up with Detroit rapper Kyle Mack. We discussed his recent run of shows and his upcoming performance taking place in Champaign, Illinois.
Artist Interview - Breez
I had a chance to sit down with Ann Arbor rapper Breez, and discussed his 2022 plans, his heavy work output in 2021, and his culinary endeavors in “Breez’s Kitchen.” Below is our interview.
Album Review- “InTheDazeOf: Audio Depiction” by Beretta Shells
InTheDazeOf: AudioDepiction by Beretta Shells is a testament to the power of audio curation when done correctly. When producers provide mock attempts at artistry, they’re often a step slower, and the random assortment of artists can see the album displaying a weird form of impostor’s syndrome.
Song Review - “They Want That.' By Cha$eDxpe
“They Want That.' Cha$eDxpe is another feather in the cap of Detroit's signature rap style.
Artist Interview - DJ N01y0uknow
I had the privilege of interviewing DJ N01y0uknow. During this interview, we discussed his artist roots, his 2022 plans, and his musical influences.
Album Review- “No Cap” by Pepp aka Mr. Attention
Artist Pepp is neither a poet who allows his lyrics to have room for interpretations nor is he a rapper that’ll blitz you with rhyming speed a la Twista. Instead, Pepp is a straightforward poet who possesses otherworldly charisma.
Album Review- T.I.M.E (To Increase My Excellence) by Churchill
Rappers in themselves by their genetic codes are world-class shit talkers. Only second to their excessive need to outshine anyone opposed or anyone they imagine is opposed to them.
Artist Interview - Derrick Shorter
I had a chance to have a conversation with artist Derrick Shorter. We discussed his latest project, artist roots and plans for the 2022 year. Below is our conversation.
Album Review “SMBTNM 2” by Derrick Shorter
For most rapping producers, it’s often an unspoken truth that production is their true talent, while we humor their attempt at cosplaying as a wordsmith.
Single - “Let Me Down” Churchill & Kristianna
“Let Me Down.” the single from Churchill’s latest album, “T.I.M.E (To Increase My Excellence) Feels honest, painfully relatable, and silky smooth all the same.
Album Review - “The Space Tape.” By Asaka The Renegade
Asaka The Renegade's project, The Space Tape. In short, introduce an artist on the cusp of stardom, yet not at the peak of his powers.
Album Review - “Every day They Change Their Number” by Sasco
In the experimental landscape of the music scene of today, Sasco’s project “Every day They Change Their Number” can come across as a scatterbrain sound of random directions looking to find their cohesiveness.
Give a listen.
Local artist deserve to be heard, give them a chance with my spotify mix. You never know what you’ll find.
