Anyone need a new friend? KOTA is here for you. 'CAMP' is a fun performance, one of those beats that keeps your attention but doesn't override the rapper at work. Feel like this dude is gonna have a big 2019. We shall see! image via KOTA...
Another slept on MC. Everything I've heard from this artist has impressed me tenfold. 'Hometown' contains a more modernized sound, Walker tore this up. Haven't heard him flow like that before. Has a West Coast feel. Pillars! image via Katori Walker & UMG Recordings, Inc. ...
YES! Oven fresh Doms. I still play the tape he and Evidence put out way earlier in the year. Too good. Singing was on point on here. Shoutout the versatility and growth. Look for a new EP from Domo Genesis titled Facade Records soon! image via...

Up-and-comer QUADRY grabbed my attention this year, and I bet he'll do the same for you after spinning this joint. Unique, got the bars and knows how to ride a beat. Pretty much all you need if you ask me. Props to DJ Dahi on...
Yo Powers this is a really great beat. Biggest question though - who killed this more? Curry? Or IDK? My gut says the latter but hey, this shit is all opinion at the end of the day right? Spin this at the gym. Guaranteed to...
TDE and Tee Grizzley. Expect the rawness. This shit was made for the streets! Video was intense, really dug the cinematic feel to the whole thing. Jay Rock stay underappreciated if you're asking me. What a banger. image via Jay Rock, Tee Grizzley, TDE & Jack...
Criminal. This new ALC x Earl collab is too good. Having a hard time getting those strings outta my head so let's wrap this up so I can spin this joint again. Shoutout Goldwatch on the visuals. This is designer rap. image via The Alchemist,...
And now MIKE is dropping music too?! We are blessed beyond any comprehension these days. Hell, I've been overwhelmed by good music all damn year. If you wanna know what Earl has been spinning in prep for his new album than look no further. Mad...
Fahim AND Earl!? Lethal. Fahim became one of my new artists to watch last year, and he's only grown since then. Output is just dumb - dude has quite the catalog already. True to the pillars. Those horns. image via Tha God Fahim & Rightful...
BRUHHHH JUST LISTEN TO THIS AND STOP READING MY WORDS I DO NOT MATTER RIGHT NOW ALL EARS AND EYES MUST BE ON THIS YOUNG MAN JAYY GRAMS. A PURE SPITTER. AND NOW HE'S UNDER THE WING OF CINEMATIC MUSIC GROUP...
Pivot Gang in the house! What a lineup of MCs. Everything Saba has had his fingerprints over this year has been absolute fire. 'Blood' is no exception. Chicago takes no L's. Some of the best music in the world being put outta there right now...
Every time. This song gets me every time. Maxo's versatility gotta be shouted out real quick. He's got bangers. He's got tracks with humor. He's got Southern shit. AND he can storytell with the best of them like he did on this joint. Those bars...
Brand new Meek! Fuck the corrupt prison system. The boy is free. This was dope as hell. Soulful, filled with flow and has the classic Meek Mill street sound. Amped for his album CHAMPIONSHIPS! Comes out 11/30. image via Meek Mill & Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for...

tobi lou stay cooking up the heat. 'Knock Knock' is a beautifully bubbly banger. If you dig this kinda stuff then you gotta peep lou's EPs from this past year. So much good music in his catalog already. Shoutout No I.D. too. image via tobi lou...
Tame Impala and A$AP Rocky. Quite the combination. 'Sundress' is a light upbeat number front to back, definitely has more of a rock/alternative vibe to it. I'm still playing TESTING...
MORE EARL!?! This is HEAT. Love the current sound. Love to hear different shit. My hype for Mr. Sweatshirt's upcoming album Some Rap Songs is boiling over the top of the pot. Ten days until it drops! Patience...
Great news today for my Aesop Rock fans. The wizard of words will be dropping a new album this July with TOBACCO of Black Moth Super Rainbow, under the name 'Malibu Ken.' If this new vid is any sign of what's to come, then we...
Better bundle up my friends. This is some cold ass hip hop. Ka really hasn't dropped a bad project in his career, and with Animoss on the boards their sound is dynamite. Cop their Orpheus vs. The Sirens album now! image via Ka & Animoss ...
