“Man I love everything about this. The vinyl scratch in the backing, that beat, and the tasty old school delivery. Fun truth and words of wisdom spit in the classic way that takes me back. A relatable and easily digestible flow that will have you quickly singing along with Provurb in pure ‘Joy.’”
“Moving on is hard especially when you can still feel those feelings of old. Hip Hop artists Ozi and Cat’s Eye unfurl this flow about wanting to ‘Work It Out,’ but some damage is irreversible and sometimes things will never be the same. The track has a old school West Coast rap vibe that keeps the linster on the edge, leaning in for the entire lyrical build.”
“Two-time Canadian Choice Award winner Di$tinct unleashes what he is ‘KNOWN FOR.’ And what he is known for is with a strong hook and rhythmic delivery that not only holds your attention but demands repeat listens. A little old school Gangsta Rap style mixed with a modern contemporary pace and writing gives this track pop and a strong hook. ”
“Errol Eats Everything is turning back the back and taking Hip Hop back to it roots with ‘Round N Round.’ The track features Rome Streetz and delivers lyrical punches that land with far more than a catchy beat and hook. That is not to say the track isn’t fire that hooks, just that there is emotional depth and meaning behind this flow with old school sensibilities.”
“TORK” by BigBagMack hits with raw energy and confidence, driven by a hard beat that matches his aggressive delivery. The track feels unapologetic and street-rooted, showcasing his ability to talk his talk without overcomplicating the message. Lyrically, it’s more about presence and attitude than storytelling, which works for the vibe he’s setting.
Overall, “TORK” is a solid turn-up record that reinforces BigBagMack’s momentum and sound.”
“Mylani Tsunami brings raw emotion and lyrical honesty to the forefront with “Gwendolyn”. The track feels intimate yet powerful, showcasing her ability to tell personal stories through a sound that’s both fluid and fearless. With this release, Mylani Tsunami continues to carve out a distinct voice that demands attention and leaves listeners wanting more.”
“New Orlean Hip-Hop has always been influential on the scene and FARROW joins a group of talented artist to come out of the city. ‘Planting Seeds’ is a track about investing in your future by taking care of yourself and your business. A thinking man’s track the lyrics give you something new each time you listen.”
“Lil Pak steps into a new lane with “No Heart,” linking up with Gunna for a track that blends icy confidence with smooth, melodic flexing.
Lil Pak delivers sharp, focused verses that feel like he’s leveling up, tapping into a colder, more polished persona. Gunna slides in with his signature effortless flow, adding a glossy layer that elevates the entire record.”
“Taye Blues’ “GTTH” hits hard from the jump a sharp, confident rap track that blends street grit with self-reflection. His flow is clean and assertive, riding a slick beat that keeps your head nodding. Lyrically, Taye spits about hustle, loyalty, and staying true while cutting through the noise.”
“Hailing from Canada and standing 6’2 Lex Leosis is used to standing out. And now she’s turning Hip-Hop stereotypes u[side down with her deep voice and wild curls. A self-proclaimed recoevering people pleaser, she dedicates ‘sayso’ to others who have went against their gut for the benefit of others. Especially women and queer folks who’ve carried the weight of others, and now must learn to build boundaries and reclaim space for themselves.
Beyond this, the track has a gnarly infectious beat and an undeniable rhythm that will leave you singing along long after the last note has faded.”
“BlackDiamond and Compton Av team up to deliver this hard hitting flow. The streets of Fresno shaped BlackDiamond and a thirteen year prison stint further honed who he is today. ‘Who’s Next’ is the kind of track that will resonate for others but comes from the heart and soul of a an artist that is simply spitting his own truths.”
“The song is full of surprises even with a mood shift midway, the standout moment is the verse at 1:36, which the artist calls their best part. It’s sublime and keeps the groove alive. A perfect fit for any groovy, feel-good playlist.”
“The song carries a strong West Coast Cali vibe, reminiscent of 2Pac, but with a danceable groove. It feels authentic and raw, with a true gangsta rap aesthetic that stays true to the culture.”
“M-Dot lays down the hard hitting lyrics in a flow that lands with passion and precision. Confidence produced the track with a nod to the old school boom Bap that made Hip Hop what it is today. ‘24 to 1’ defies the trend of catchy hooks and instead leans into the power of verse and a well delivered flow.
Real, honest grit and emotion carry the day on this track. And I am here for it.”
“Cam Carter and Ray K team up on this hypnotic Hip Hop vibe about the fakeness that permeates through not only Southern California but society on the whole.
The beat and build almost mirrors some of the vapid Pop tracks that certainly add to the trendy fakeness of our culture but these artists do a masterful job of toeing the line between highlighting the fakeness and creating a track with bite.”
“Hypnautic is one half of the popular hip hop group Top Flite Empire. ‘Memories’ is a lyrical bomb just waiting to explode in your ears and heart. The track definitely is a tweener in terms of genre but that does not diminish the impact of the talent or writing.
A track to feel and complex enough to give you new nuance each new listen.”
“What’s not to love about a groove-filled jam from Roots of Creation, Afroman, and Edo.G? I mean come one you can feel this one right from the start. ‘Ride Or Die Chick’ is a mantra tof stubborn love and dedication. An ode to loyalty perhaps even when it isn’t deserved.
And the easter eggs of hits gone by is a nice addition. This is talented artists having a good time and it shows.”
“Jay Wood demands your attention with his track ‘ASSUMPTIONS.’ But probably not in the way you imagine. This trippy, almost psychedelic flow is a vibe that doesn’t force your full attention by force like so many Rap tracks but rather is alluring in musical groove kind of way.”
“KSI mshes the pedal on this track and thrill ride of a video. ‘Catch Me If You Can’ is an anthem for those who have put in the work, defied expectations, and cemented their place at the top.
KSI says: “This track is all about levelling up, proving yourself, and staying ahead of the game. ‘Catch Me If You Can’ is my way of showing that I’m always pushing forward, whether it’s in music, boxing, or life. No matter what obstacles come my way, I keep moving.”
THe video is well down and is a throwback in some ways to the Golden age of music videos.”
“Earl Hondo might sound like a spaghetti western villain, but give this track a listen and you’ll discover he’s a killer alright ... A lady killer offering up a groove you can get down to between the sheets, or cruising up the boulevard.
Saddle up and ride the vibe!”
