SONG OF THE DAY – Sacrifice (feat. Yazarah) – Darien Brockington
Sometimes you have to look back to move forward. With the resurgence of R&B from D’angelo to Chris McClenney, I figured I would share this original R&B jam from 2005.…
Song of the Day: Milo – Zen Scientist (feat. Myka 9)
https://open.spotify.com/track/5ip8NxzAUFcKFI2BRwaQ9B Last year was a ridiculously strong year for hip-hop, and I'd say Milo's sophomore album So the Flies Don't Come was one of the best. This track, like all on the record,…

This beat is TASTY, right from the start. Busta's production team needs high fives all around for this one. Also, Chance The Rapper does his thing for like... 2 minutes,…
SONG OF THE DAY: MANDOLIN ORANGE – “FROM NOW ON”
It's a softly Americana acoustic piece that sounds kind of like what it feels to watch a sunset alone. There's also something deeply and enticingly sad about it, especially once…
SONG OF THE DAY: BRYAN SUTTON – “GOD REST YE MERRY GENTLEMEN”
I don't have enough positive affirmations to adequately express how much I am freaking out about this particular Christmas song. In the remarkably diverse genre of holiday music, I'm mildly…
