The youngin’ Alessia Cara drops a new one off her debut album “Know It All” which is slowly unraveling itself on iTunes. Thought it was an EP at first but now am realizing that it’s a full-length album but only 6 of the songs are available for purchase right now. Totally get that considering today’s climate. Full album looks like it’ll be available in November!
Drew Howard connects with producer Birthday Boy for a solid 6-track EP. Shouts to the city!

Really happy for this dude man. For someone so young, he already has crazy history in the city. From Lincoln & Jahvon and the whole Foundation movement to the Doman & Gooding chune to experimenting with his rock band as Lincoln Blache (“You & Me” was dope btw) to now finally releasing his debut solo EP, Lincoln’s always been one to check for. “The Times” specifically was definitely in heavy-ro for me when it came out late last year so if you haven’t taken that one in yet, it’s also here as part of the new EP.
A song that literally DUN’D THE PLACE on Thursday night at The Known [UN]Known. And be sure to click the YouTube link below to see the madness that was her performance at R.I.S.E. last December.
WHAT “DUN THE PLACE” IS REALLY ABOUT “Dun The Place” is the tribal drum of freedom. In this song, the situations, labels, boxes, and beliefs placed on you can’t stop you. Your existence is supernatural brilliance. How could anyone else save you when you are only at war with yourself? Fight for self-discipline. Fight to be confident. Fight to rebel. Fight to let go. Fight to grow. Fight to love freely. Fight to BE unconditionally. Limits and fears are usually more mental than they are physical. Annihilate them and you will win. You will “Dun The Place” when you are dun shrinking.
