Styles P & Big Mike: The Phantom Menace [Mixtape]
If Styles P killed as many people as he rhymed about on The Phantom Menace, hed be Ted Bundy. David Styles latest mixtape is solid but a mediocre offering when you compare this to his past work. Previous mixtapes like Ghost Who Sat By The Door show more of a willingness on his part to […]

When Hip-Hop meets Reggaeton, Tego Calderón is chillin’ at the intersection.

Making his worldwide debut with El Abayarde (his alias meaning a Puerto Rican insect similar […]
