Mixtape Review-Real Nigga Shit by Kolley
Mixtape Review-Real Nigga Shit by Kolley While it’s easier to be a Southern rapper than it ever has been, it really depends on how Southern you are considered.

Song of The Year-Blood, Sweat, Tears by Future produced by Katalyst

Mixtape Review-Route the Ruler by Young Roddy
Mixtape Review-Route the Ruler by Young Roddy by Dan-O Rappers always want to join prestigious crews but imagine the reality of it. You run with the Jet Life crew underneath the guidance of Curren$y who has been making music so long he was signed to Moses (and dope back then). Meanwhile Smoke Dza is snarling…

Mixtape Review-Long Live The King by King Mez
