by Kevin March 16, 2011 Around The Net

We kinda feel behind with these… that’s why I never commit to a daily/weekly promo that any artist does. But Ritchcraft just dropped the final video yesterday so I’m assuming he’s at SXSW now.

We’ve been covering Wax here on KN.com for a few years now with the work he’s done with EOM, Herbal T, Nobody Famous, as well as his solo stuff and YouTube videos.

Vandalyzm: Nothing Ass Verse, With A Hook On Beat

by Justin March 15, 2011 Singles

This song title goes right up there with one of the all-time best, although nothing will ever top The Coup’s “Me & Jesus The Pimp In A ’79 Granada Last Night” in my opinion. With SXSW about to kick off, Vandalyzm drops a dope that is exactly what the title says: “Nothing Ass Verse, With [...]
