We shouldn’t have been out for this long; it’s been a rough month trying to process and adapt to the current pandemic we’re enduring. What I’ve taken away so far is that, in dull moments when we lean to catastrophizing, music provides a much needed respite from the avalanche of news updates that have...

…Because that’s the feeling I was going with. They been told me DJ Okoro, you’re all about the sweet moments and lovely times. But just in case you didn’t knew, your boy can get grimey and all that if the occasion calls for it! And this is just a little exhibit of how sick...

While chopping up with Buck about the direction of the playlist and the site in general, he brought to my attention that I never made a straight up hip-hop playlist. He suggested one that would showcase the new wave of rappers that keep going about their business of showing off their dexterity and prowess...

Very few today would be quick to remember that the charismatic, chiseled and health-conscious Gucci Mane we see today was once a doughy irreverent recalcitrant. What never changed has been his prolific nature with music output. The Meek-Mill-assisted “Backwards” single is the second in the rollout to his 14th(!) album (Delusions of Grandeur) in...
