Words By Patrick M. …Where your mouth is. I’m into the practice of New Year’s resolutions. I recognize that, as much as I love myself, I’m a flawed human being who’s prone to bad habits and obnoxious behaviors. And vices. Oh the vices. My life is a constant battle, as...

Preface By Gottyâ„¢ That damn TC couldn’t leave well enough alone. He already told you of his biggest disappointments of the year. Now, he’s gone & teamed up with Patrick to designate their recognition of select members of our beloved hip-hop community. So this time, not only shall...

By next Sunday evening, you won’t need TSS. Logging on and looking for us should be a foregone conclusion because we simply won’t be here. Instead, we’ll be elsewhere…with Home Box Office, the police & some West Baltimore mopes.

It’s been over a month since Red Bull’s Big Tune finals in Seattle, and it’s taken that long to get most of the pieces together for this final post. In the spirit of TSS it seemed fitting to bring all of the producers together one last time, and instead of trying to explain how dope...

Ringtones sold big, with “Party Like A Rockstar” and Mims topping the list(NPR).
