Mixtape Review: ThatYoung – Young Timo

For the last week or so, I seen this new emcee YOUNG TIMO tearing up the internet with his debut offering ThatYoung mixtape, so I thought I give him a trial.

EP Review: Nobody Listens – Chris Patrick

At beginning of this year CHRI DOLLASIGN released mixtape, S**t Real. Now almost eight months later, he extended the six-track production to a full-length EP, Nobody Listens under the new name, CHRIS PATRICK.

Mixtape Review: Y.O.D.A – K.I.N.G Holloway

Dallas-based emcee K.I.N.G HOLLOWAY dropped his fifth mixtape, Y.O.D.A (You’re On Drugs Again).

The 18-track gives an insight in the 22-year-old’s life – and boy, it’s a roller-coaster ride! Featuring clever takes of 70′s classics with seriously head-rolling bassline, this hop-hop wordsmith spits (in his raspy and husky voice) lyrics that seriously rips through the soul – and (at times) have you…
