Rob Regal - The Soul (Official Music Video)
One year. It's been a whole year since I've dropped any new visuals for y'all (not including "The Constant" with PHZ-Sicks and "Excel" with Osiris Green,
of course - those were collabs). My apologies, but life has been real,
to say the least. The good part is, for the latter half of 2015, the
statement "life has been real" can be followed by the word "positive".
Things are on the up-and-up. Money is being made. Music is being
written. Inspiration is being found. The family is getting healthier and
stronger. With that being the case...I'm slowly but surely making my
way back to what I do best.
Earlier this year, I dropped a verse over Terrace Martin's instrumental version of Kendrick Lamar's "Ignorance Is Bliss", entitled "The Soul".
At the time of writing it and recording it, I was still battling many
demons I've since conquered, using the beat as my avenue to speak on
personal turmoil I would've never had the courage to rap about a few
years ago. With time comes growth, though. Enjoy the new video, directed
by none other than the homie Matt Sugawara, and look out for more visuals coming soon. New project, Good Luck Road (formerly titled The Reflection)
coming in 2016. For those of you that kept checking in and supporting
while I went through my hardships, I appreciate y'all more than words
can express. Feels good to be back...

25 year old Dolo Moretti started out producing beats and recording

mid 2015 following up with a joint ep titled 'Been Hollywood' that fall
with his friend and fellow local artist ShaMe Aveknu that lead to him

making him a artist to watch in 2016 with his follow up solo project
'Yolo Moretti' coming this spring.

BJR - PRISM
Ryan Leslie Protégé, BJR is releasing his anticipated LP, “PRISM”. This album features the single "No Wonder", which is his take on the changing sound of R&B/Hip-Hop.
Better put, this compilation of music by the producer/artist is an opportunity for listeners to see his versatility.
The sounds of BJR are reminiscent of Frank Ocean (No Wonder) & Chris Brown (Pillow Talk); however he also
manages to pack in bassy, club pumping hip-hop on the project.
With different cadences in his vocal delivery, he is able to take a different approach on the beats that he created.
@kingpenslim @johnblu @DJJBUTTAH @DJWhooKid - "L.A.N." !!
Just in time for cuffing season, Northwest D.C. native Kingpen Slim decides
to shed light on the ups, downs and in-betweens of relationships with
his latest audio contribution, entitled "L.A.N." (Love A N*gga). The J. Buttah produced single features an impressive rework of Notorious B.I.G.'s Life After Death cut "Sky's The Limit" in addition to an A-1 hook compliments of Chi-Town singer/songwriter John Blu. Can anybody say Winter anthem?
