What I'm Watching: "The Miguel Medley" x @OfficialSoMo


I was first introduced to SoMo via @MLissa910 and suffice it to say, after hearing The Trilogy Medley inspired by The Weeknd (one of my favorite artists of the year), I jumped on board. But it was his mélange of newer and older songs by Miguel that had me officially sold (not to mention using my favorite joint on Kaleidoscope Dream "Use Me".... if you haven't heard that yet, peep that). I may or may not have shed a tear and fainted after listening to the intro. His voice is strong with an edgy grit to it that is just... ooh wee! So check it out below, and enjoy!

What I'm Watching: Hayze - "Creepmode" (Produced by Apathy)


"Purchasing Js when you stay with who birth you, kid / caught the same charge. Verdict is you ain't learning shit."

Aight, aight. The kid sounds like he got some skills. I'm listening. I peeped Apathy talking about this new artist he was working with and here he goes with his first release off "The Smoker's Section" mixtape. Chalk up another artist that can combat the wackness the radio plays. I'll be waiting for this mixtape's release especially knowing it's being presented by Apathy and Man Bites Dog Records.
