Drakeo the Ruler releases new project “The Truth Hurts”

Cali heavyweight Drakeo the Ruler unexpectedly dropped his project The Truth Hurts earlier today. The 17-track effort showcases a wide array of instrumentals from Wheezy, Bankroll Got It, and Zae the producer as well as features ranging from Don Toliver to Icewear Vezzo.
However, one of the most highly anticipated features came from none other than the 6ix God himself. The Drake and Drakeo collab “Talk To Me” was teased on social media for months and was finally delivered as the 16th track.


Other than being a great song, this collab caught people’s eye due to the fact that Drakeo earns his place as one of the few unsigned rappers to get a Drizzy verse on a song. Yung Bleu is also an independent artist (signed to his own label), who got a Drake verse with “You’re Mines Still.”


Other tracks to check out from the 26-year-old rapper’s tape include “Engineer Scared” with Krispylife Kidd and the late Ketchy the Great, “Chrome Hearts” with Pressa and “Dawn Toliver” with Don Toliver and Ketchy the Great.

Manteca native Devon The Chief shares new single “Lil Baby”

Devon The Chief drops a new track, entitled “Lil Baby,” featuring veteran rapper Nef The Pharaoh.

Hayward-born, Manteca-area raised artist Devon The Chief, whose music can only be defined as “raw” and authentic, is making moves with his new track featuring veteran and another Bay Area rapper Nef The Pharaoh. The new single, called “Lil Baby,” was produced by DontPanic and is an impressive effort from the independent artist.

The pair teamed up to deliver a certified bop, and Devon has affirmed that a visual is coming soon. The little under three-minute song is on par with Chief’s electrifying and mesmerizing sound. The pair have seen lots of positive feedback for their track.

Devon wants his fans to know that they are not alone, and has been there and wants people to know it gets better and hopes he can “touch people” with his music and show them if he can overcome certain things, so can they, it something you can hear and feel in Devon’s music, and something that will be a determiner for his success in the future.
