Once acclaimed one of the best high school hockey prospects in a state where Hockey is more religion than sport, TJ Hickey was all in on his dream to play professionally. The Boston, Massachusetts native landed at Division 1 Union College, the eventual NCAA Champions. After concerns about his commitment due to his passion for music, he was cut from the team. Despite feeling devastated, TJ used it to fuel his music career. Now only a few years later TJ has curated his sound and has toured the nation playing for thousands of fans. With contributions from friends Futuristic, Mod Sun, Cam Meekins, Huey Mack, and Devvon Terrell on his debut project Undeniable (2015), it was received with critical acclaim from many pop and hip-hop writers from all over the world. TJ was able to excel in a field where there is little room to mess up. Since taking music more seriously; TJ has performed at numerous venues for cult following fans, he’s dropped several dope videos, and has just recently been given a verified account on twitter. The list of accomplishments could go on for TJ Hickey, but for now we’ll give you something to listen to. Now, the Boston artist returns to drop off a refreshing new single for the ladies entitled ‘Challenge.’ With some energetic production from Nox Beats and Vinay, and a ridiculously catchy chorus from vocalist Jordan Richardson, TJ Hickey has a strong release on his hands.

New Mixtape: Zero – “Paradise Campground”

Philadelphia artist Zero just shared his new 16-track body of work, Paradise Campground. The mixtape includes some impressive features from Tory Lanez, Futuristic, Huey Mack, and more. A bulk of the production is brought to us by Philadelphia producer/singer Andrew Meoray. The project shows Zero’s growth since his prior 6-track EP, Mannequins.

With this new body of work, Zero is beginning to occupy a unique place in Hip-hop. Armed with a pinpoint accurate delivery, Zero’s rap style goes from mid tempo to a rapid fire lyrical assault without warning. Zero’s song selection is nothing short of addicting while blending heartfelt stories with raw lyricism.

Over all, the 18-year-old phenom is here to stay, and will most likely be making a huge impact sooner than later.
