Interview with Faction – Funk Volume Contest and Hip Hop Is Back

by Joshua (J.Smo) Smotherman February 20, 2013 10:12 am

Interestingly enough, Faction submitted their album to us about the same time I found their video for the My Funk Volume contest on Hopsin’s Facebook page. I assume the universe just meant for me to know about these guys because that’s never happened before…and I have been blogging since 2007. If you don’t know about […]

Brando Albers

As I hear the high winds navigating their way around the structure of this house while the rain blows in, Fading Away by Brando Albers overcomes my senses with its dark but poppy alternative electro-pop. Brando is a singer/songwriter from St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada and if I were fading away right now, I would want this […]

Magnum Passion by Devin Farney
