Brooklyn emcee, Sene, drops his track “BrooklynKnight.” When I first read the title…I kept seeing it as Brooklyn Night…but regardless, it’s a dope track either way. If the audio isn’t enough for you, check out the short film above as well. You can [...]

If there was ever a such thing as a Freshmen Class list for R&B & Soul artists, both Mara Hruby & Melo-X would both be at the top of my list. Hruby’s ever popular cover of Mos Def’s The Panties, has been remixed by New York’s own, Melo X. Slowing the track down a little [...]
