Words by Carlos Arrieta (@LOSO.70) Ever since “Don’t Tell Em” shot up the charts in 2014, the chatter has been about when Jeremih’s highly anticipated album, Late Nights, would actually drop. There has been plenty of frustration over the numerous album pushbacks among fans and critics alike. However, Jeremih has done his part to feed…

Family affair. Sunday is the day to be at this year’s Summer Ends music festival as Chance The Rapper, Vic Mensa and Kanye West will be closing out the annual festival in Tempe, Arizona. Contrary to popular belief on the internet, Summer Ends isn’t Kanye’s own festival (sorry guys) and also feature performances from Travi$…
FSD Feature: Pass Me The Aux Cord – What We Heard This Weekend [8/7 – 8/9]
Words by Ryan Chandler (@NayrRyChi) Summer is beginning to simmer down, and the seasons are preparing to shift gears. Chicagoans are getting out and enjoying the dog days, and their final summertime rides.

Chella H, Sasha Go Hard, Katie Got Bandz & Lucci Vee Announce New Group & Album
Tonight, it was announced that four of Chicago’s top female emcees are joining forces like Voltron to form the supergroup, WWA — which I’m guessing stands for Women With Attitudes. I hope so, at least. It’s only fitting we get a WWA just days before the release of the great NWA biopic, Straight Outta Compton….
FSD Feature: Why Isn’t This On The Radio
Words by Carlos Arrieta (@LOSO.70) Sometimes you hear a song that changes your life. I don’t mean anything grandiose such as the song will alter your behavior or your point of view of the world.
