JoJo Pellegrino is exceptional. And as such he makes exceptionally dope music. Always excited to showcase new music from this artist. He hasn’t made nearly enough over the years, but most recently we got his project, Hitman For Hire V2. And that once again reminds us of how truly gifted this man is. He has a great energy sand style togo along with the skill.
Single You Out: Gotham Green – RIP (It’s Over) (ft. JoJo Pellegrino & MaRika)
This came out in late January but I missed it and when I listened to it today it was just TOO inspiring not to share in hopes that I can help more people catch on to what Gotham Green is doing. I am not sure who produced this beat but they did a hella great job. JoJo Pellegrino was also the perfect choice to guest on this track. He murks his verse. Altogether this is one of my favorite tracks this year. Be on the lookout for Green’s new project, Child Of An Immigrant, due out a little later this year.
Single You Out: JoJo Pellegrino – Worst Days (prod. by Fallen Down)
I am just going to make my own JoJo Pellegrino mixtape. He has dropped enough loosies over the course of the last couple of years for me to comprise one. The man is extremely gifted and I hope to catch an official project from him soon. This track is produced by Fallen Down.
Single You Out: JoJo Pellegrino – Pretend
Another dope cut from JoJo Pellegrino, maybe my favorite of his last few joints. I am still waiting with baited breath for Machine Gun Pelly.
Single You Out: JoJo Pellegrino – Led Shower
This is the hardest I’ve heard Pellegrino go in a while. This beat by J.Glaze is a monster too. It’s short but goes just too hard to ignore. It’s tagged on the Soundcloud page with ‘machinegunpelly’ so I am supposing this track will be on it. Enjoy…
JoJo Pellegrino – Home (Video)
Well, the album Machine Gun Pelly, has reached an almost mythical stature and I just hope that actually drops some day. The man is talented but they have been talking about this project for years now.
But you simply can’t deny a banger when you hear one…

Note:
I make no secrets on this blog about the artists I am feeling. And usually, the pattern repeats, as consistency appeals to me. This brings us to the latest work by Boston artist, Rite Hook. I have spoken to his appeal before but to recap previous posts, Rite Hook has great song making ability. He is able to put intelligent and emotional music together. He also has become a master at being able to construct dope hooks. His dark crooning really ties his songs together.
