DJ Vadim f/ Pugs Atomz, Psalm One, ShowYouSuck, Qwazaar, Ill Legit & Thaione- This DJ (Chicago Flex)
Produced by DJ Vadim Take your idea of a posse cut, then feed it after midnight (a’la Gremlins), pour water on it, then main-line it steroids. For a week. I’m pretty sure you’d end up with this “This DJ (Chicago Flex),” posse cut. The verses aren’t the longest, but the artists jump in, spit and…

Video: Logan – My Religion
Directed by J Krown. Produced by Flight. I must say, I love this new trend of rappers dropping new videos and/or songs on their birthdays. It should be a requirement — plus it lets the people know to reach out and wish them a HBD. That being said, tonight we have the world premiere of…
