New Project: Key Wane – Everyday Key Wane
Key Wane is one of the dopest producers in our region. Actually, forget that, he’s one of the top dogs in the industry right now.

Chief Keef – Hate Me Now
Keef has been listening to a lot of Nas and Dipset lately, me thinks. You can hate him now, but he won’t stop now. You’ve gotta be deaf to not pick up on that here. This is yet another leak from his Dedication project with DJ Holiday.
Gzus Piece – Open Letter
Produced by Mr. E A quick “Open Letter” for the currently embattled Treated Crew bad boy, Gzus Piece. It’s nothing but bars from one-half of White Gzus that quickly fill up the margins on the pages. It’s a letter from him to you, so pay close attention. Sincerely yours. This is just a taste of…
