As if she’s not making crazy enough waves on her own, Cleveland’s Chelsea Pastel recently joined forces with L.I.F.E. Art & Content Company, adding a fresh new dynamic to the crew that already houses acts like Kipp Stone and DJ Touch Money.

Today we get to premiere “DMT”, which is a rather trippy coming out party of sorts for Chelsea Pastel. As is the case with nearly all her work, “DMT” is produced by Chelsea herself.

Peep the latest track from one of the most promising emcees in the Midwest and be on the lookout for more from Chelsea Pastel in 2016.

Straight out of Brooklyn comes a brand new artist emerging from the underground, hoping to claim his spot as one of the most focused Hip Hop artists out of New York. HOA Bossman has been receiving a lot of love for his recently released project “L.I.F.E” including a huge cosign from the GS9 leader Bobby Shmurda promoting his links. Now Bossman has geared up the latest visuals from the project with Gritty.

The visual consists of everything that the song title eludes, director Tarela Kelvin Ebiotu doing his best to catch New York’s gritty essence as effortlessly as possible. The song itself has real somber attitude to it, Bossman make numerous threats in a chilling tone in project hallways, abandoned alleyways and local bodegas.

Be sure to stay tuned for any further work HOA Bossman may be dropping soon. If you’re interested in knowing more about the upcoming artist, check out a small documentary he did with Vice a while back here.
