Grumpy Old Men - "Bucket List" featuring Grade Aplus

Peep the latest and final track from the Grumpy Old Men off their album that's dropping in a few days. Same of that good stuff from these cats.

Grumpy Old Men's sophomore project, #FreeLunch is scheduled to drop May 30th via LiveMixtapes so, Mike Schpitz and Pete Sayke wanted to release one final leak before #FreeLunch is served. The last leak, Bucket List, finds Mike and Pete along with Chicago emcee, Grade Aplus, dreaming about the finer things in life, only to realize that cost to achieve a dream adds up fast. Bucket List borrows production from araabmuzik's beat tape, Electronic Dream. #FreeLunch coming soon!

@KirbyLauryen's A Song A Day: Day 145

Get Kirby wasted. Ha! There's something about day 144 and 145 that brings a slightly different sound that you don't hear in the first 143 days of the A Song A Day series. That's not to say the new nor the old is bad. There's just something uniquely cool about the past two days that I really dig. Maybe it shows a level of versatility from Kirby. Anyhoo, enjoy the music.

Interview: Willie Waze (Early Certainty 1.7)

From the cover design by Nick Danny Fulcher to the actual music on Early Certainty 1.7, Willie Waze continues his talented and musically entertaining journey with this solid video game influenced Hip-Hop release. When I first heard of the Virginia native, it was off his previous mixtape Early Certainty he dropped last year. This new mixtape is pretty much a great appetizer to hold you off until he releases version 2. It's like he started right where he left off on this new 13 track venture giving his listeners an insight into part of his life and delivers his messages throughout the mixtape with morally inspiring flows that not many unsigned artists folks choose to spit. I dig an emcee that can aspire to be successful while maintaining both feet on the ground. He just lets the music speak for itself with honesty and creativity as he does on Early Certainty 1.7. I reached out to Willie Waze and posed a few questions about his project to get an inside feel into his outlook about it. Peep it and don't forget to grab the mixtape!!!
