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 – […]

Towards the end of […]

New Kanye fans were shocked when the highly-anticipated Donda failed to release at midnight on July 24, 2020, as the artist promised while old Kanye fans half-expected a stunt like this to occur. The world was anxiously refreshing their smartphone screens on the early morning release, waiting for the moment when they would hear the opening for “Stay on Em/Precious,” the first track of the album. However, that moment never came and devoted followers are still ritualistically checking Spotify and Apple Music. The following day, Kanye West posted the cover art for Donda on Twitter, giving music lovers a glimmer […]

Here’s some dope music that’s kept me hopeful and motivated this summer. I’m thankful to each of these Christian rap artists for their style and creative abilities. I really hope you dig this music too. Vicious Vic This Nigerian born artist has stood out to me since I first heard him in 2018 with his debut EP Young But Mighty. The sound is clean and well done, and the message is on point. He’s really on that modern tip with the beats, and his flows are pretty tough too. He just dropped his newest EP The Heat List. You’d better stop sleeping […]
