Operation Doom Discography/Song of The Year-Phantoms featuring Kendra Morris & Open Mike Eagle produced by 7L by Dan-O I couldn’t have been luckier than to wrap up the Doom discography run with Czarface Meets Metal Face.

Song of The Year-I’ll Be Fine by Trae The Truth by Dan-O More than any project before his new album Hometown Hero represents the uniqueness of Trae The Truth.

Song review-Goyard by Lil Debbie produced by Kid Class by Dan-O I will be forgiven for not being all in on Lil Debbie when she popped. She came about during that big 2011 White Girl Mob mess that spawned V-Nasty & Kreayshawn. She came in the game as a tiny white girl with a pronounced…
