A song coming from an artiste that has had the “next to death” experience. Artist SlickMick details his journey from being “ok” to lying in a hospital bed not knowing what is really going on whether in his head or anywhere around him. This is basically a testimonial of closing out an experience in Cambodia and heading to Thailand where his world change in the blink of an eye. He could remember stepping from a bus and as he made his way to crossing the street, it all went blank when he was hit by a car and ended up in rehab where his life was now a matter of recovery or out.

Through his song, you could literally hear his passion for living and his strong courage and determination to fight his way through to full recovery. This song portrays his bravery and can definitely be a form of peace and motivation for those going through a struggle and trying to keep going. Though it may be a sad experience, his strength over-powers that and makes him a tower of strength for many in the music industry and those listening. It goes to show life experiences don’t determine your destiny but pushing through and using those said experiences as a stepping stone for greater heights. A true inspiration of fighting through physical, psychological and emotional weakness!

What do you call an emcee who is always on the scene, flexing like John Cena, but you just cant see him? Well if you haven't heard of Plhus 1 yet then I suggest that you get familiar. Coming out of East Flatbush, Brooklyn, NY, the Faceless Gawd, known for wearing designer brand scarves on his face is next up from the borough with an laundry list of legends. Plhus is back with his new single "John Cena." Laced with a laid back trunk shaker produced by Forever Young Beats, Plhus goes in and lets everyone know what a day in his Timbs is like. "Creep me in you teepee and you can be my Navajo" is not just a witty rap line but also a part of his culture. With a mother of Native American descent and a father who's assisted Harriet Tubman in creating the Underground Railroad, even in subtle metaphors the Faceless Gawd manages to shout out his heritage. John Cena is just the start for the enigmatic emcee as he plans to drop his first EP soon, named for another mysterious figure, The Night King. With tremendous skill and truth behind him, I wouldn't be surprised to fans rocking designers scarves on their faces and reciting lyrics from "John Cena" in homage to the Faceless Gawd.

Rising hiphop artist, Critical Focuz, got the jumper cables out for his new album titled "The Ride". "The Ride" is a 7-track look at a hungry rapper with something on his mind. Critical starts out right with super charged "We Just Niggas". It's an uptempo and raw view of lyricism. On "Roller" you'll hear street knowledge with a ill raggae influenced hook. Peep the mad graphic visuals below! "Hood Holiday" is a light-hearted, thoughtful, and inspiration hood anthem! 

Ultimately, "The Ride Ep" is a gem filled with rich concepts and dope rhymes. Read more about Critical Focuz and download the full EP today! https://criticalfocuz.bandcamp.com/album/the-ride-ep

I can hear this one in my car, stuck in traffic on my radio. "They Can't Do It" is one of those hits you can def here in a DJs mixshow between the Future, Drake, and Chris Brown joints! The song is for the ladies. The bad ones.. Something for you to dance to. Jaevionni and Fedarro killed it!!!

"Recording artist Jaevionni just released his brand new record "They Can't Do It" & it has already caught headlines. In this uptempo record Jaevionni gets everyone in the mood to dance! Curious to see what he'll have up his sleeve after this one."
