You Need To Give Benjamin Starr His "Flowers" And Realize His Talent

South Carolina rapper Benjamin Starr has delivered a nice surprise for his fans on the day of his birthday. If you're not familiar with him, today is the perfect day to listen in.

Chicago's Lili K Is Showing Us That Women Are "Magic"

Lili K is really starting to blow up and I couldn't be more thrilled. Last year, Tidal named Lili K as their first ever Tidal Rising artist. That same year she released her debut album Ruby, which is an incredible gem of jazz and soul music. Prior to that, you may have heard her fabulous vocal talents on Chance the Rapper's #10Day or Acid Rap mixtapes. But she is building quite a nice body of music on her own, with The Lili K. Band. She herself is a gem, having studied jazz, opera, classical, and music theory at Milwaukee High...
