Words by @fuckhuev0 Produced by Pul2o Nash & Mayhem Meech Lucki is not playing around with his recent releases. And yet again he’s back with another banger titled “Relax” featuring Dexter. The song was dropped via A$AP Mob member, A$AP Illz Soundcloud — and it’s not the first time Lucki has done this. Fans have…
ZMoola has been one of the most influential Chicago acts of the past few years. From the streets to the studios he’s been mimicked. But you know what they say: imitation is the highest form of flattery. But he addresses this admiration on his fire new release “Tryna Copy Me.” New Z album on the…
Produced by ROMderful Now this is the shit. We’ve been waiting on some new Jean for quite a while, and today she more than impresses with the dazzling “Wikipedia.” From the vocals to the arrangement to the production — this one is a winner. Very well done. Take this one and add it to her…

Directed by JVisuals312 A few weeks back, Mulatto Beats dropped his pretty great new project, 22 Summers. The early standout for me was this King Louie-assisted “Long Live The Kings,” which in my opinion brought Louie back to the zone I like him in. The backdrop was perfect, and Louie attacked the track effortlessly. The…
Produced by Steve “Stone” Huff Caleb James returns with the slow-rolling “Yellow Light” — produced by his pops Steve “Stone” Huff. The SaveMoney superstar might’ve titled this one “Yellow Light” but there’s nothing cautious about it. He does slow it down a bit, but it gives him the perfect backdrop to return to his Jones…
A few years ago, I was honored to take part in the kickoff for Young Chicago Authors’ ‘Chicago Track’ program. It’s now an inaugural program in its third year, and for this year’s rollout they’ve treated it almost as a ‘Making The Band’ type of campaign, taking their participants and grooming them for the music…
