KB talks about the success of his debut album ‘Weight & Glory,’ remaining humble within that success, upcoming music and videos, and what to expect for Unashamed Tour 2012. KB also talks about dealing with his demands as a husband and what role he plays in Reach Records.
In a recent interview with Rapzilla, rising Christian rapper Rockstar JT, known for his hit single “Stick” with Duke Deuce on the Reach Records Summer Twenty playlist, revealed a few names of artists that will be featured on his new upcoming EP. “I’m workin’ with a lot of people and I’m tryin’ to work with an artist out of Chicago. Not gonna reveal his name yet because I don’t want everybody to go crazy. I’m emailin’ the people back and forth and we are tryin’ to get somethin’ in the makin’ with mainstream artists. We got Social Club Misfits on […]
Gospel hip-hop songs are fast becoming the in-thing in Nigeria and the world at large. Limoblaze is one of the key drivers making that happen. The past few months have been dark for the world. The entire Earth has not been herself after she got hit by the Coronavirus pandemic. The streets at some point became empty and the world had to stay at home. Many say that this loneliness and idleness have given the world time to reflect on how much hurt it is passing through with racist attacks, rape, and high-level robbery cases stealing the headlines. However, none […]

Mogli the Iceburg wants to be the Drake of Rock music. “I grew up listening to Nu Metal and Hard Rock, and that’s part of my life, my story, and culture just as much as Hip-Hop. My goal is to be that guy that is the Drake for Metal, like the way Drake came and was able to blend R&B and Hip-Hop in a new way. It set a precedent. I’d like to do that for Rock music.” Before his EP Sad People Make Dope Music, Mogli “didn’t know exactly how” to fuse Rock and Hip-Hop without deviating from his […]
Sitting across from Nashville rapper Mogli the Iceburg at Knoxville’s famous Kbrew, we met together for coffee and conversation. Specifically, my aim was to interview him about his faith and personal relationship with God. He was visiting town already for the weekend to visit his family and shoot a new music video, so the timing was perfect. When I pitched the idea of this interview, what I said was that I wanted more than anything to get to know the real Mogli. I wanted to get to know Jacob Horenburg, the one who struggles, hurts, and aches like the rest […]

Logic has never been found to shy away from controversial topics, ranging from racism and immigration to relationships and depression, even releasing a song on suicide in 2017 that landed No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100. Although admitting in previous interviews that he is not a religious person and doesn’t believe in organized religion, the second track of his retirement album, No Pressure, has overt theistic themes and discusses God, something he does not do often. “[‘Hit My Line’] is a conversation between me and God and me kinda speaking to the heavens like, ‘Yo, this is what’s going […]
Young up-and-coming Texas artist 350 released a new single today, “East Side” featuring 1K Phew “After our wedding, my wife and I moved on the block her father was raised on. Being raised in the gang life, her father was quickly caught in a cycle of drug abuse and violence which cut his life short.

After much inactivity over the last few months, WHATUPRG is seemingly back with a vengeance. He just announced his project New Hollywood will be dropping on September 25th. Then today he revealed that he is no longer with the indie tribe. collective. The move has shocked many fans reacting so far but from a business standpoint makes sense. Even though indie tribe. is not a label, RG is with Reach Records, not exactly an indie situation. We’ll speculate no further on whether other things are a factor and wait to hear more news. For now, this is what we got – […]
Last night Lecrae revealed plans to retire from releasing music soon during our live interview. We had a really great time with Christian rap artist and Reach Records founder Lecrae on our Community During Chaos Instagram live session alongside other hip hop heads Coop and CJ Luckey. The interview with Lecrae was an interesting one and a great experience as he spoke about several pressing issues ranging from Black Lives Matter, the “White Blessing” interview, the LGBT community, his new album Restoration to be expected alongside his book, Reach Record’s 2020 Summer Playlist, and many more. Towards the end of […]
The dopest songs are commonly a collaboration of writer teams, producers, and musicians. These are producers and artists that have shown us the importance of carrying your own weight and killing it! Christian rap is no different… *Criteria is based on artists and producers working on a full project or roughly 10 songs. No self-produced artist either.* Zaytoven & Lecrae – Let The Trap Say Amen Lecrae and Zaytoven took us on a ride thru the trap. Lecrae’s concepts over Zaytoven’s piano keys and trap symphonies were cultivating and edgy. The lead single “Get Back Right” started the ignition and […]

Christian Hip Hop artist D. R33D has released his newest single “Free”. The song features Apoc and TC aka The Collector as the trio speak on systemic racism and whether or not religion is a part of the problem. “Systemic racism is real in our country and, sadly, a lot of Christians in the American church contribute to the problem” states D. R33D. “I used to be a racist, but I am free from it, change can happen. That is why I won’t be idle and silent about it.” Listen to D. R33D Below:
This afternoon Reach Records tweeted out “¡Sin Vergüenza!” which translates to “without shame” aka “unashamed,” the 116 anthem. However, looking deeper into it, we find some clues that this could be hinting at a new Latino signing. ¡Sin Vergüenza! — reachrecords (@reachrecords) August 12, 2020 Here’s the theory. Reach Records next artist is *drumroll*…Tommy Royale. If you don’t know who Tommy Royale is, he’s a Puerto Rican artist who does his music exclusively in Spanish. He’s been featured on Reach affiliated songs, most notably “Live Forever” which also introduced Hulvey who hadn’t been announced yet. Royale was also named a […]
