On August 23, Andy Mineo released a musical-podcast hybrid called Work in Progress. The project is unlike any released by the artist before, compiling several unreleased tracks into a single release with a podcast series used to create additional conversation. Whereas Mineo’s earlier releases accounted for a single season, Work in Progress gives listeners a more complete display of Mineo’s artistic evolution. Whether it be the fear of aging, a celebration of marriage, or musical experimentation, the album is a thematic feast and might be Mineo’s most powerful project yet. Perhaps the most crucial element of Work in Progress is […]
NF recently sat down for a conversation with Ill Will at NME.com this week. Being someone who tends to be pretty vulnerable on the mic, NF found some space here in front of a camera to be real. Considering himself to be a quite negative person and preparing for the worst, NF says he finds it thrilling that he outsold Chance The Rapper’s debut album ‘The Big Day’ in the first week of sales with his new album The Search. Nate also shares how his perception changes the older he gets. He looks back on the song How Could You Leave Us […]

If you need a little push or motivation into the next step of your career, creative endeavor, or just to get some encouragement from people pushing through the same things you are – Christian rap has got you covered. This community does something well that I’ve always sought from other places of music and artistry. It allows you to know people’s stories. Fame does this uncomfortable thing where it strips people of their humanity and places them on a pedestal. When the reason most people are famous is in part is because of their story. Yet, money and clout get […]
Zauntee released his music video for “Fanatic,” and for the young artist, it’s a whole level up! “A zealot is radical and uncompromising in their beliefs, and that’s what ‘Fanatic’ is all about,” said Zauntee. “It’s a call to inspire myself and others to stand for the Gospel and make the world a better place by chasing our purpose. If I can do it with all I’ve been through, you can do it too. You have greatness in you. Don’t conform to the system but be bold and dedicated in your pursuits. It’s a lot of hard work, but you […]

Today I am reviewing What’s Understood 2 by 1K Phew. I’ve not been much of a 1K fan in the past, but I can dig his track “Back Soon” from What’s Understood Vol. 1, and I’ve seen him in concert with Aha Gazelle and Lecrae, so I am familiar. The modern wave of hip-hop is hard for me to wrap my head around. I can vibe with melodies with the best of them, but in my own snobbery, I tend to yearn for lyrical depth as well. Admittedly, I will be listening today with an open mind. I am sharing all […]
