Read moreShenron (the wish-granting dragon) emerges only upon the gathering of the seven dragon balls scattered across Earth. Following years of feverish tracking, a single wish is granted in a mere instant to those who succeeded in recovering the orbs, and the dragon balls are deployed once more, cast off across the globe for any future hunters tenacious enough to pursue. At this dual-moment of both end and beginning, After Shenron begins. Offsite ponders through our steps going forward, questioning how we ought to approach this new beginning, daunting in its apparent emptiness. How should we continue the pursuit? Should we continue the pursuit at all? A pithy fifteen-minute project, After Shenron poses questions across the paradoxically minimal-dense sound palettes of producer Wontu. [After Shenron is the result of a cross-seas collaboration. Having spent 2014-2016 living in Tokyo, Offsite sought musical refuge in the production of Wontu, a South Florida native. The two connected instantly and After Shenron was quickly born] After Shenron by Offsite & Wontu

He adds to that catalog with his new 24-minute EP “Rumor Has It”, debuted today in an HNHH premiere. “Rumor Has It” is produced entirely by California-based producer RMUR, whose diverse sound ranges from soulful, sampled-based production to Louie Lastic-esque future bounce.

Read moreIt’s been a minute (or around four years) since the world last heard from Long Island-repping emcee, John Reilly. The thing is, it’s not as if he spent that time off with his feet up or even completely removed from music. Quite the opposite, as he’s been dealing with nearly everything life could throw at him: family issues, depression. fatherhood, and death. In spite of it all, he never stopped writing and instead used it as the inspiration for his stellar new EP, “Standing in the Face of Time”, with Chicago producer Rediculus. Reilly’s passion is clear from the jump on lead single “Do That Sh*t,” a track made for live shows and battle scenarios. But it’s on the gripping “Rabbit Hole” that he opens up overcoming his personal problems and not giving up: “Truly thought of quittin’ music after all this time and effort/ But, a writer’s who I am inside my very essence.” Not that he needed to, but Reilly more than backs up his writing abilities on “What Goes Around,” a tragic tale of abuse that centers on a woman named Jolene. In addition to detailing her difficulty escaping a hellish cycle, Reilly at one point embodies her cold abuser. It’s a harrowing, well-written listen that touches on the realities of domestic violence. Elsewhere, Reilly is more carefree, dropping hilarious Billy Madison references on “Bully Pulpit” while Rediculus supplies the lighthearted instrumental. They’re joined by New Jersey’s Rich Quick, who ends the track with a verse worthy

Read more“This is just the beginning. I started making music alone in my bedroom after watching Corbin’s (FKA Spooky Black) ‘without u’ video. I’ve come a long way since then but I’ll never forget where it all started. Thankful for all the people who’ve embraced me since my first song ‘Spit On Me’. It’s because of you, that I’m here almost two years later experiencing true inner happiness. I got some best friends & fans y’all lol. I don’t feel alone anymore.” – Appleby
