Over the last year I have covered the rise of Trevionne, from “Broke and Bummy” to “Damn” to shining a little light on his previous album “Seal Team 6,” but all that was literally last decade. The test now rests in how you can make an impact in 2020 while building upon what you’ve already created without blatantly trying to repeat it. If this is a fresh start, then Trevionne has taken it and continued on his path with a refreshed momentum. Continue Reading…

Dufflebag Cal ft. Kronik – “Ballerz Gala” (Video) Best known for his latest hit, “Blessings ,” New York rapper Dufflebag Cal retur ns with an impactful new visual called “Ballerz Gala”. For the New Year, the fast -rising slick talker delivers his most stylish effor t yet. Featuring talented recording ar tist Kronik, Cal is draped up and dripped out as he plays host to an extravagant mansion par ty. Similar to a young Hugh Hefner, surrounded by a following of beautiful women, Cal raps about fasting living filled with endless amounts of blue faces , suits out of the roaring 20s and several foreigns in the garages . Dufflebag Cal shows a tremendous amount of promise as the next big thing to hit Hip hop in 2020. For newfound fans , “Ballerz Gala” is the perfect jump -on point to follow Dufflebag Cal’s ride to the top. “Ballerz Gala” is produced by Kronik. The new song is slated to appear on Dufflebag Cal’s for thcoming album, titled, Dufflebag County.
Dlux – “Outta Love” (Video) Dlux is an artist with many talents, that really creates a visual picture with her songs. Most of them seem to be written in mind of future videos for the records. Not too many artists can create music and paint a picture for you, which will make you really see what she is talking about.
HGR Cultivates Their Position It was two days before Christmas and the rain was coming down Records being set as the water hit the ground The City lights illuminates the sky showing its hazy tint
Up on Union, many talents making their way to a networking event Different voices together in one room, traveling from miles around
Sharing parts of their stories on All City Sounds. I was invited to an event at Hollow Earth Radio as I was told this would be a good opportunity to pick up some interviews right alongside All City Sounds conducting theirs live on the air. Never one to miss an opportunity this appealing, I looked over and saw the lineup that was expected to show. One caught my eye right away, Hard Grown Records, or HGR for short. An artist of theirs who I’d known for close to a decade, Anji D, had just released her single “No Time” just a few days earlier. Being able to
congratulate her while getting to show the rest of the group seemed like a moment where the stars aligned, so we set a time to meet. I sat down with the group after they gave an interview to Gerald Beamon, Marianne Reilly and the All City Sounds crew, as they began giving me their story. The labels CEO is known by Mistah Moufpeace while the President of the label is Anji D and their soul artist, HIM, rounds out the group. Within the first few moments the thing that stood out to me was the bond they all seemed to carry with each other. “We’re a collective, we move as a family unit,” Mistah Moufpeace said as I inquired about that. It’s that dynamic that actually lends to the authenticity of who they are and the music they put out. When I asked about influences, a question I asked all of them in some form, he gave me the list of familiar names but Master P being at the top made sense. To build a family unit is one thing, but to set a foundation in which each is given the ability to grow is a different feat in itself and while many strive for that, it takes a particular frequency to get it to actually click.

Impeachment Poem by Jhantu Randall
They gathered in the chambers to debate a system encased in corruption Crimes committed, defense and denial lead to our mutual destruction
Words were weaponized Frothing at the mouth, the hoards aimed to make their lies canonized
A white supremacist atop a pyramid of leeches Murky waters as poison was expelled in multiple speeches The plutocracy openly deceives us Ready to let a criminal for free due to intentional malfeasance
Another day increases the divide The rift continuously grows between them and I The empire falters through arrogance that hits like cyanide Witnessing the fall of it all in real time It feels like we're experiencing America's suicide
