I can’t lie, I’ve been waiting on this one a long time. In my opinion, the first volume of My Turn is a Detroit classic, and easily one of my favorite rap projects of 2014. Quis emerges three years (gasp!) later with the sequel, aptly titled MTV2 — that’s My Turn Vol. 2 for you…
Paypaman, eternally of the Chicago fearless foursome, Project Mayhem, is back with The Books — his first new project since 2014. 10 brand new tracks from one of the flyest in the Chi. Keep it off the books, and grab it below now.
Wow, Nick Cannon and Wild’N Out have been showing the Chi a lot of love this season. Just last week, Saba and Chano were on the show, now this week Vic is involved and he’s on here slaying people (sorry Nick). Watch them go toe to toe in this clip from the program. I told…
HXLT is crazy for this one. Do you remember the Superfun era? Some of you do, but for most of you: #YouWasntThere. It was a moment in time. A special era of Chicago nightlife and culture — one that needs to be celebrated more. It was legendary. It was trendsetting, and it will never be…

Words by Aaron Navarro (@aaronlarnavarro) Ay we got it. Best music video out of Chicago this year, instantly awarded to young Warhol for this one. Worked over with precision and creativity by director Lonewolf (@whylonewolf), Warhol’s video to accompany this bouncy heater is a match made in heaven. The brand is at its strongest point…
Twista’s debut album, Runnin’ of at da Mouth, dropped all the way back in 1992. A lot of you guys weren’t even alive yet. Fast forward to 2017, and at 25 years in, Twista is still relevant and still killing the game. But not only is he a legend in his own right, he’s passing…
