Mysonne "Litty/ZEZE Freestyle (Joyner Lucas Diss)"
A couple of weeks ago, Joyner Lucas and Tory Lanez had a quick lyrical back and forth. There was a lot of fast rapping, and a bunch of syllables used. But all of it felt pretty pointless. The highlight of the beef came when veteran rapper Mysonne hopped in Lucas' comments and said that Tory won. Lucas didn't appreciate the feedback, and told him so.
Soon after Mysonne dropped his own diss track aimed at Lucas. There's definitely some nice shots here from Mysonne, who has always been somewhat underrated.

Leaf Ward "No Losses"
Up-and-coming Philadelphia rapper Leaf Ward gives off early Meek Mill vibes on his latest track "No Losses." There's no hook here. Just relentless reality raps over a floaty beat from AyoTrell.

1TakeJay "This Beat Hit"
Compton rapper 1TakeJay remakes Young Curt's "This Beat Hit" and the results are good. 1TakeJay has flirted with a couple of national hits, but this one seems like it has legs.

Bee Boisseau,Wes Felton, Raheem DeVaughn, & Vandell Andrew"NFL"
Bee Nisseau gets creative and raps a song from the perspective of Colin Kaepernick, who is currently being blackballed by the NFL. It's a little heavy handed. But it does make me nostalgic for the rap storytelling days of the '90s.

Dej Loaf "Last Time I Checked"
Despite being one of the most influential (and copied) rappers of the decade Dej Loaf hasn't gotten the respect she deserves. After a light 2018, Dej is getting ready to drop something and that is good for rap music. On "Last Time I Checked" Dej does some much-deserved boasting.
