Local Music

Propain is one of my favorite young rappers from Houston because he actually tells stories and has substance. Unlike a lot of artists nowadays, Pro makes music that we’ll all want to be jamming 20 years from now. Keep up the great work, man. I can’t wait to hear more from your upcoming project “Against […]

From the title of Mr. Wired Up’s new song, I thought I wasn’t gonna enjoy it. I was expecting “Strip Club Junkie” to be super ratchet and un-relatable…but the sh*t is actually catchy! LOL Jam it below and then let me know what you think! Follow MrWiredUpOhBoy @TheAmirDiamond & @979TheBox on Twitter & Instagram!

I’m all for any song that promotes shining, despite what negative people have to say about it. As long as you’re doing something positive or just being your plain ole self….then f*** those haters and speak yo mind! Lol Those are the lyrics from Stoppa and Why Jae’s new song “Shine” (produced by The Prodeuser). Jam […]

Lyric Michelle’s “Weekend (La di Da di)” makes me feel as though I’m in the corner of someone’s bar, sippin on a Friday night to the sounds of a dope singer and her live band. Her unique sense of style and talent makes her one of my picks for Woman Crush Wednesday! You can pick up this […]

After leaving the YMCMB imprint, he’s continued to grow & make his mark on the game. I haven’t spoke with him but according to his Instagram, (imfreshdoe) […]

It excites me when local artists put some actual creativity into their visuals…like Roosh Williams’ new one for “Unorthodox.” Mortal Kombat was one of my favorite video games to play in the summer time with my cousins growing up, so Williams brought back some of those old childhood memories. Check out how Roosh incorporated some […]

He’s here (as if he ever left)!!! OneHunnidt is one artist I’ve been rocking with “The Longway” since my days at the University of Houston. Go Coogs!

I’m am so freaking grateful that our generation of artists and entertainers are stepping up and using their platforms to bring light to topics that need to be discussed. Lyric Michelle has always made it a point to keep audiences talking through the things she preaches in her music and poetry. Check out “The Rhetoric” […]
