David Dallas

I found David Dallas through a song called “Caught In A Daze” that he did with Freddie Gibbs. I’m a huge Gibbs fan and dug deeper after I heard this track.

It’s from David’s mixtape “The Rose Tint”. I downloaded it today and have listened through 5 times. He’s from New Zealand and definitely has a [...]

There’s so much bubblin’ talent out right now.

Roll Deep

I felt like going in the way back machine tonight. I found myself listening to Roll Deep circa 2007. I like hearing British rap because their slang blows my mind. They’re also super heavy on the knife play on account of the Queen’s strict gun laws.

I had never seen the video for the song “When [...]

Freddie Gibbs – Serve Or Get Served

Freddie Gibbs is too cold. Chi town got murked with this one.
