Legit snatches an instrumental from Captain Murphy's Duality 'tape and spits straight fire with great lyrical dexterity in "BlackJACK (The Preamble)". New project dropping soon, so stay tuned!

• Legit - blackJACK (The Preamble)

Chicago's own, Legit, is back @ it a-fucking-gain! Today is his 21st birthday and he decided to give himself a birthday present. And I'm sure he appreciates himself for this dope record. As usual, this guy kills with the punches. A few went over my head until the 2nd listen. Add good lyrics w/ a good ass soulful beat & I don't think you can lose! "blackJACK (The Preamble)" is off of an upcoming project that Legit is working on. The project is slated to drop sometime this spring & is yet to be titled. Free download & stream of [...]

The Americans Well, it’s a new year and that can only mean one thing, it’s time for me to sit back on my ass and watch some new shows. Here’s a look at some of what I’m most looking forward to watching, recording, renting and/or streaming in the upcoming Winter – Spring 2013 TV season. In terms of new shows, I'm really keen to see what FX's The Americans looks like, IFC's Out There could also be right up my alley, and while I haven't been [...]

Getting blog love and support from your fellow peers can be quite difficult at times for up-and-coming artists such as Nick Astro & Legit, but if the two keep spitting the same way as they did on this joint, it's only a matter of time before their buzz really takes off. Astro's 'SUPER16' is due out January 20th.

Has "post my music" fully become the new "listen to my demo"  It's kind of easy to see that change after listening to Nick Astro's new record, "Put Me On", which features Legit.  Both emcees rap about the highs and lows of their first blog posts.  Music 2012, indeed.

A couple of weeks ago we posted David Newman's list of the top rappers in Chicago for the year-ending 2012.  This was not a list created or endorsed by rubyhornet, and we said thus in the article.  Following the post, we got hit with a lot of tweets, emails, and comments surrounding the list in question. Some thought that we made it up, others agreed with our questions as to its credibility, and others demanded that we create our own.  In the last couple weeks, we decided to put together a proper response to highlight the emerging and [...]

South Carolina's LosCaus links up with Legit for "Steam Rising".  LosCaus is part of S.C.'s Steam Squad, as is this track's producer Supah Mario.  This is a solid cut, which the Chicago spitter only improves with his guest verse.  Peep it below.

Surprise, surprise. Out of nowhere, Legit decided to bless anyone with a new joint. A little short, but Legitimate kills it. Hopefully, we'll more from Mr. Chicago Lives soon.

As I'm sure just about everybody has seen already, the American Music Awards had one last surprise in store for their audience during their show last evening. And that was a performance of the oh so popular "Gangnam Style", but with a twist that only few could've expected but everybody would love. I'm talking of course about the reappearance of MC Hammer and the classic hammer pants joining our man PSY on stage to perform quite the impressive "Gangnam Style 2 Legit 2 Quit Mashup". With the new song came a whole new slew of [...]

School is back in session, football season is upon us, and the days will soon be getting a little cooler and shorter.  Another summer season is in the books, and what a summer it has been.  We've haven't had attention like this on Chicago's music scene in quite sometime, and both established veterans as well as up and comers shined in the summer of 2012.  We take a look back with this list of our favorite songs released between Memorial and Labor Day (ish)...  Check out our list of the top 40, and throw up any in the comments that [...]
