Pensacola trapper turned rapper,  TC Blanco  started making music after seeing local artists rise behind the facade of a life he was actually living. Growing up, Blanco started earning money as young as 10-years old, washing cars and cleaning yards that had been impacted by hurricanes. His parents struggled trying to make ends meet for their kids, so naturally, as a hustler, he got to work. In high school, his legal, adolescent grind turned risky and he was fully indoctrinated into street life. Inspired by the lack of validity he decided to get into music and paint the truest sonic picture of a trapper’s life. Blanco aims to push the message of being yourself and getting money in every rhyme he writes. source https://undergroundhiphopblog.com/albums/pensacolas-tc-blanco-drops-new-album-trap-shit-alongside-official-video-this-week/

Claas is a 40 year old MC from Arlington, Texas who’s been putting it down in the underground for almost 2 decades at this point whether it be on it his own or as a member of groups like The Underground Avengers or VLNC . But right before the pandemic started, he’s been teasing his 6th album (albeit 3 with Lyrikal Snuff Productionz) & even dropped a trilogy of EPs leading up to it much like Strange Music used to do in 2019/2020. Couple years later, we’re finally being treated to This is Revenge in it’s entirety. “Sweartagawd” is a rowdy boom bap-tinged opener talking about how some people got him fucked up whereas “Foxtrot. Echo. Alpha” follows it up with a more trappier sound getting in his hardcore bag. Keagan Grimm tags along for the rock-tinged “Friends” talking about burying their competition, but then Kung Fu Vampire & The R.O.C. come into the picture for the rugged “Devil May Cry” detailing what they’ll do when they get down to Hell. Meanwhile on “Feast”, we have Cl...
