Flash Bang Grenada top Spock at his own game and teleport alongside Verbs and Riddlore. The latter is a Project Blowed O.G. and one-time member of Chillin’ Villain Empire (CVE). You should be aware of him, but you are likely not. This is a good place to start.This remix tweaks the original “Teleport” from last… Continue reading »
You already know the company line on Nocando. In consecutive songs on his new Zero Hour EP, he spits hard as Hell(fyre) double-time raps referencing Oedipus Rex. The next song is called “Westside Rentals” and finds him dreaming of a “house with a pool on the Westside with a black Betty Page sitting deckside.”It’s smart,… Continue reading »

Barring you being a bubble boy (or “person” if we’re being politically correct), there’s no excuse not to go. 9 p.m. until the… Continue reading »
