Last year VStylez blessed us with one of the most impactful albums not only locally but nationally as well with “Thornton Melon”. Fast forward to 2019 and the momentum shows no sign of slowing with an announcement recently that the gifted lyricist was joining forces with local label powerhouse Middle Finger Music. Now we have another treat bestowed in a special redux to one of the top records on last years definitive album. Revisiting “Detropolis” the Pete Rock produced record gets graced by an entourage of Detroit’s finest on the redux with Guilty Simpson, Phat Kat, Nolan The Ninja, & Boog Brown. The redux has them all blessing us with bars that fit effortlessly onto Rock’s production before we are gifted with a brand new verse from VStylez himself to close out the new take. “Detropolis Redux” will be available only on the very special “Thornton Melon” vinyl edition dropping soon via Middle Finger Music.

It’s been a solid month & Josh Frank is still commanding the top spot on our trending posts with his recent drop “Come Up“. Now to follow up his previous offerings success is another banger in the form of “Shoot It” which has already been grabbing some fast hype! A recent performance along with more music in the works & the recipe for further success is taking shape for up & coming rapper Josh Frank.

A couple of weeks ago I introduced our readers to a local artist making waves who goes by FROSTisRAD. Fast forward from “The Beginning” from that intro & we are delivered another example of the Cudi-esque newcomer in another enticing record. “RUSH” starts off with FROSTisRAD explaining that he can’t fuck with you before going on about being on the edge. It’s a fitting record in some ways for the heartbroken or confused on this Valentine’s day. FROSTisRAD is fantastic at building out songs as they go on, & the switch-ups in delivery throughout peak the listener’s interest in a way I can see going very far in this industry. Two offerings in it’s become quickly apparent that the local artist is one to keep on watch!
