brandUN DeShay: Reebok "Classic Sessions"



Check out the latest edition of Reebok's "Classic Sessions" featuring Chicago rapper/producer and artists Rifraf & Romeo Rex. Love what Reebok is doing with the younger hiphop scene, they're really shining some light on deserving independent artists. Learn more below.

The concept began as a film-based program in the UK where, starting with an all-white room, an artist and musician would collaborate and create an online visual design and sound experience – a collision of creative talent. Upon working with jeffstaple of Staple Design and Reed Space the idea quickly grew into a street-level experience that was both physical and digital.

Cadillac Duke - No Chris Brown (BIBAFBD) (Prod. Don Hullio)


New music from Chicago emcee Cadillac Duke. Check out this track on his upcoming project, "Polo Drippin' Soup Sippin'".

A couple new tracks from Chicago's Chance The Rapper. "Hey Ma" is featured on his highly anticipated "10Day" project that drops on April 3rd. Apparently this Tree produced version of the cut is not the one that made it on "10Day". Not sure what the reasoning was for that, but either way I'm glad we get to hear it. The bonus joint featuring Kid King will land on Snapbackonthetrack's compilation project, "No Soda", coming soon.
