Producer Spotlight - Cardiak
I personally feel like producers don’t get enough credit for their works of art. With that being said, there is now a “Producer Spotlight” section on the homepage. This is open to all mainstream and indie/underground producers.
First up, we have Cardiak, from Start it Up to God Hour, Cardiak has been supplying the hip-hop scene with BANGERS!
Check out the video of him, Corey Gunz and Fabolous in the studio.

French Montana - Excuse My French
Frenchie’s debut album, Excuse My French was definitely worth the wait. Ballin Out & Fuck What Happens Tonight are my favorite tracks so far.
