Real Talk Tuesdays: Earl Sweatshirt

I really dug Earl's debut, Doris. His sophomore effort, I Don't Like Shit, I Don't Go Outside is streaming now on Spotify. So heady. So cool. Dig it.

Feel Good Fridays: Oddisee

D.C. rapper Oddisee is bringin' the good vibes today. Dig his latest, "That's Love". Feels so good.

Way Gone Wednesdays: Frank Leone

Last year I wanted to book a show with newcomer Frank Leone but he was too young to put on the bill. Last night he dropped his first full length album and it's a keeper. I watched this kid work his ass off, make his own beats and put this out into the world. The hustle is alive in this one. Dig.

Madhouse Mondays: Notorious B.I.G.

On March 9, 1997 Christopher Wallace (Notorious B.I.G.) was murdered for his music. Put one in the air today for Biggie Smalls and dig this mix by DJ Short-E. Fuck the bullshit.

 

Feel Good Fridays: Eisenhauer Beats

Dig this instrumental cut from Eisenhauer Beats and peep the whole collection for more head-nod goodness.
