Review:

They say he's Roc Marci's right-hand man. I beg to differ. I believe they support each other mutually. There respect in the game is equal. This is Pirate's 3rd album release since his hiatus. This is the one that he gives us all him and NO features. Every successful artist does this eventually. They need to prove they can hold their own weight. And I believe Mr. Cesar accomplished this on this project.

Coming off the success of his 2nd album "Black Cesar" released 3/23/2019, Mr. Pirate didn't come to disappoint the masses. I need to speak proper on this blog, because this album is royalty. It screams purple velvet capes with large gold mugs filled with the finest beverages. Some of the skits make you feel like your around Kings and Queens.

Peep the Album covers alone. He has two, so I posted both. I haven't read or heard about the album covers yet. I believe they represent religion, family and love. If you have information on the covers, let me know. I'm very curious. I'm a artist myself and I find these covers beautiful. 

The production on this joint is heavy. His partnership with E.L.E.M.N.T. is incredible. They have a great chemistry. Pirate's pimp, hardcore, straight to the point lyrics and E's melodic beats are a fresh of non-corona air. E.L.E.M.N.T. did his thing on this project. Not that Cuns hasn't. Out of the four tracks Cuns did, I only liked two of them. No disrespect to the god, I believe they could of did the entire album with just E's production. Shout out to Cuns for tracks "Chapo" and "Oni Experience". Oni Experience is one of my rotation tracks. 

Artist are putting out EP's, short albums, mixtapes and sometimes just two or three singles. The Hip-Hop community doesn't mind, but these artist need to clarify what their work is if it's not obvious. People are calling this a Mixtape or an EP. I'm putting this under the Album category based on the number of tracks and how the project turned out as a whole. It's a great piece of work. 

Album rating is a 4.33. Mr. Knowledge, if you reading or watching, thank you for this project.

G Fam Black VS Ceverely Yours

G Fam Black VS Ceverely Yours Dear G Fam Black, Thank you once again for participating in this interview. I know you don’t do many press features, and this is a wonderful chance for your fans to learn a bit about you while still keeping some of that mystery. I truly appreciate it. Peace, G. I’m grateful for this opportunity! - G Fam Black Questions & Answers: 1. Are you originally from Brockton Massachusetts? And where are the best places to eat? Absolutely, I was born and raised in Brockton. There are plenty of great food spots here. For the best chicken, I’d recommend “Yas Chicken” and “Birdies Hot Chicken”, which are both fantastic. For breakfast, I have to mention “Alexander's Family Restaurant”. They’ve been around since I was a kid, and their omelets are incredible. For pizza, “Cape Cod Cafe Pizza” is the way to go—it's the best bar pizza in the world, a true South Shore Massachusetts specialty. A lot of towns near Brockton brag about having the best bar pizza, but th...

P-Ro is 12 FOR 12

Dear P-Ro, Thank you once again for participating in this interview. The year of 2025 was definitely a great year for you. 12 Albums in 12 months is something to be proud of. Your consistency, drive and performance shows, if you work hard, the world is yours. Questions & Answers: 01 Releasing one album per month for a year is a monumental, almost athletic creative feat. What was the core philosophy or personal need that drove this marathon? Was it to break a habit, prove something, or simply because the music was overflowing? -It was actually a little bit of all those, and wanting to challenge myself with a goal and try to get better at being organized. The list of projects I made in December looks different than what I ended up doing. If I wasn't dedicated to monthly drops, I probably wouldn't have made 4-5 of the ones I did. It's great to have a team that's like-minded and can dive in with me when I need them and make great, fun music together and share it with th...

How To Support Your Local Rapper/Producer?

  The Core Problem: The Illusion of Support vs. Real Financial Impact Many fans believe that streaming a song, watching a music video, or following an artist on social media is "support." While this is valuable for visibility, it provides almost no direct income, especially for artists without major label backing. The Streaming Chasm:  It's well-known that streaming payouts are meager. An artist might need  hundreds of thousands of streams  just to earn a modest monthly rent. For underground rappers without playlist placements or algorithmic favor, this is an insurmountable hurdle. The "Exposure" Fallacy:  Many shows, especially for opening acts or in competitive markets, are "pay-to-play" or offer minimal guarantees. Playing for "exposure" doesn't pay bills. So, if streaming and low-tier shows don't cut it, how  can  fans genuinely support rappers, especially underground ones? Let's break it down by impact. Tier 1: The Lifeblood ...
