IDK – Is He Real (Album Stream)


If you think about rappers from this area in a tier system, IDK is certainly top-tier. However, within that tier, alongside the Wales, Shy Glizzys, Rico Nastys and Q Da Fools, IDK is perhaps, still the underdog. Is He Real, his latest, a full album, might put him ahead of the pack, with a hybrid style of the recent album-as-a-playlist trend, and an actual, full-length album. The project has some surprises as well, you’ll have to listen to find out. The Apple stream is below, you can also listen on Spotify and Tidal.

Borleone – December (Video)


Young Borleone! One of our favorite’s from the Maryland side drops a surprise new video to cap off this Labor Day weekend. P.G.’s finest is up next, with one of his trademarked, two-minute-long bangers. “December”, shot by @mikeandnikess & @trdmrk.glbl, is short, smooth and two the point. Goonew has a cameo in the video. Expect more from Borleone soon. Free Flock!

Super Nike Nando – “Why Am I Not Surprised?”

It took us a minute to figure out what was going on, but DMV peers dopeSMOOTHIES and Super Nike Nando have been having words on social media (as to why, we have no idea). In the midst of all that comes a new freestyle from Nando titled “Why Am I Not Surprised?,” which sees him taking aim on wax over Pusha T’s “Infrared.” You can check that out below…presumably, listeners can expect a response at some point.

Pusha T Feat. Lauryn Hill – “Coming Home”

It definitely looks like that new album is closer than we think. Following the release of “Sociopath” comes a new drop from Virginia’s Pusha T titled “Coming Home,” which features the legendary Lauryn Hill and (as with the previous record) sees production from Kanye West. The track was premiered during an interview with Ebro Darden on Apple Music’s Beats 1.

You can check out both the interview and song below.
