Pull up a seat at the bar & hear dope bars!!! When he dies don’t cry cause his legacy will live on forever!!!
5) JOHN JIGG$ & MONDO SLADE have a “War Of Words” over FREEHUEY seared audio opulence from “JJ’s Revenge!!!” This gem gives us the kind of chills down our spine we experienced when throwin’ on a cherished Earth, Wind & Fire classic from the 70’s! John & Mondo got this tag team thang on lock. They’re true underground overlords who push Hip Hop to the limit & beyond!!!

Be prepared to get raptured off of this mortal plane and into a heavenly realm where #theones rule Hip Hop forever!!!
9) ENEM & HIM LO show ya how to go from a “Vandal To VanGogh” on audio art so criminal it could only be labeled the “East Coast Stomp!!!” WINO WILLY weaves an impenetrable wall of sound lesser MCs wouldn’t dare to climb as the deadly duo scale creative heights with an air of casual ease. The rhyme warriors go to battle and smash everything in sight. The East remains triumphant in a lane that’s solely all its own!
10) JALEN FRAZIER & J-CLASSIC say “I Hope Your Pistol Don’t Jam” as they stare down the barrel of the competition!! The sonic snipers disarm the opps with a full clip of lyrical artillery over a FOUL MOUTH fueled heater titled “Kelly Tripucka!!!” When the rhymes rain down on rivals it’s like acid being poured across their face!!! There’s no way adversaries can win! The modern day minstrel show of rap is fading. Jalen Frazier will stomp it out ’til it ends!!!
Well that’s it for this week. Catch ya next time and…DON’T SLEEP!
