We showcased City Flow’s song, “On My Mind” a while back and a lot of people loved it so when I went back and listened to the rest of his tracks “Ricochet” was one I had to post even though I’m 7 months late. The smooth piano and beat tie in perfectly with Mark’s lyrics [...]
Here’s another track from Namasté, who we featured earlier on our Artist Watch segment, off of their EP, L’absurde. This one is called Patience and is done in both french and english. It’s an absurdly (see what I did there) dope track. It sounds a lot like the song Say Yes by Floetry, but of [...]

With our second installment of the Artist Watch series, we would like to introduce XV. With clever wordplay like, “Then I started playin’ in her Bush, but she screwed me out my seat, so I guess I’m Gore,” XV can’t possibly remain unsigned for much longer. The rapper out of Kansas has a lot going [...]
