It’s that time of the week again. Do remember, that if the song dropped anytime since last Friday (11/14) it’s eligible for the list. Now we aren’t saying these are the BEST songs of the week, but they are the staff’s faves and joints you can catch us bumping in the office.

Shorty K – Check A 100
Produced by Pressure. Shorty K can’t lose right now. Shorty’s given us nothing but heat over the past month or so with his recent drops and today, he returns with yet another heater that he’s calling “Check A 100.” Listen to “Check A 100” below via illRoots and look for Shorty K’s new project to impact…
ACE B8gie – Unholy
Produced by Plainro. ACE and Plainro snapped with this one. For ACE’s latest offering, he takes on a flip of Amy Winehouse’s “Some Unholy War” and kills it. Enough from me — press play below and listen for yourself.

Michael Christmas f/ Sir Michael Rocks – Bootleg Designer
The Best of Both Michaels… Boston and the Chi collide for an ode to fufu designer wear. You know the good spots for counterfeit goods from city to city, and Mike and Mike explore and detail their exploits in this new track below. Fufu never sounded so good.
Lil Durk – B.O.N. (Remix)
Durk takes King Louie’s current hit “B.O.N.” and puts his very own OTF spin on it. He addresses rap beef (he doesn’t do it), eating exotic foods with Diddy, shouts out Bump J and the Goon Squad and so much more. “B.O.N.” is incredibly addictive anyway, so it’s nice to hear another artist put their…
Supa Bwe – Fefe At My Funeral
Produced by Sami Beatz & Supa Bwe Ever heard of a second line? Well, it’s a parade/party thrown alongside traditional funerals in New Orleans. Well tonight, Supa Dupa brings that concept to Chicago with “FeFe At My Funeral.” Sound like a bummer? Nah, Supa contests it’s all in good fun. It’s a new tradition. Although…
Martin $ky – Don’t Go
While we prefer raps and beats from Martin $ky, we’ll take a beat when we can get it. And today he blesses the FSD congregation with “Don’t Go” — he doesn’t call this an instrumental or even a beat — he just calls it good vibes. Go find it below.
Video: Montana – Ice Cream Truck
Directed by Zae. Produced by Jay Storm. Mr. Ice Cream Man, but no it’s not Percy Miller. Nor the Luniz for that matter. It’s Montana of 300, and he’s back with his latest visual “Ice Cream Truck.” No “Pop Goes The Weasel” over there. Jay Storm most definitely killed this beat.
