Atlanta rapper 6lack seeks to make a name for himself as he drops his Free 6lack album.

The eleven-track collective marks 6lack's (pronounced “black”) highly-anticipated debut onto the Hip-hop scene, and upon an initial play through, the record proves the Atlanta emcee's got game.

Signed under Interscope Records, 6lack proudly represents the ATL collective LVRN (LoveRenaissance), and upon years and years of projecting songs through Sound Cloud, 6lack finally punctuates his mark onto the scene with a formidable debut record.

Long after his memorable debut, Termanology follows-up with More Politics, which has recently been made available for online streaming and downloads.

Erupting onto the scene in 2008, Term appeared on a memorable underground hit fashioned under the DJ Premier accolade, “Watch How It Go Down”. With multiple critically-acclaimed singles already circulating within the scene, Term dropped his highly-anticipated debut record, Politics As Usual, which combined an A-class production lineup with Term's braggadocio persona.

As Bay Area funk aficionado Diamond Ortiz rolls out his new full-length album, Loveline, the enthusiasm for the world to hear it must be off the charts. In the course of 15 tracks, Ortiz’s heavy, bounce-laden style carries the album from start to finish, cementing him as California’s heir apparent to the gutter synth funk sound, which originated from Ohio and found an adopted home out West, where it fit perfectly with the cultures of lowriding and pop-locking. According to a press release, his sound is not simply “retro” or “old school,” it has it has a place in the modern day pantheon of electronic music.
