Artist: Jon Hope

Jon Hope - Work In Progress DJ Booth & Surefire Recording Studios: 2012 Jon Hope is a rapper who takes his craft very seriously and in theory that's in no way a bad thing. When I first caught wind of his music it was through the track "Still Breathin'" which was and still is the go-to soundtrack to any rough day.

After dropping the superb Words From A Fairview this past March, quick-witted MC Jon Hope returns with what just might be the first single (or at least a preview) off his aptly titled proper debut, A Work In Progress . Why is it aptly titled? Because it's been in the works for as long as I can remember knowing about dude. And while he's obviously kept us all satisfied with new (and free) material, there's nothing like hearing a full-length debut, you know? Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that I can't wait to hear A [...]

J The S releases the official visuals for "One Day Left" featuring Franco Anthony & Jon Hope off The Sky Is Falling EP .

What would you do if you had one day left? Me, personally, I'd round up my loved ones and belt out my favorite tunes, wherever they let me play 'em the loudest. It might be a tad awkward at times, with my mom hearing songs like "Ain't No Fun" and of course, me dying and all, but I'd make sure it was a killer party. If you're curious what J The S might do, check out this Court-Dunn-directed video for "One Day Left," from his recent release The Sky Is Falling . Beside the [...]
