As the coronavirus first peaked in the tri-state in March of 2020, it overshadowed a new album from a group I had been following for years. So I wanted to make sure I had that group covered for this season of TG* TV. Here's my verse over Phantogram's "Let You Down" off their most recent [...]

TG* TV S2 Episode 2: 20/2(2) Vision
For this month's installment of TG* TV, I went back to my roots. The Cool Kids helped shape my identity as Token Genius, from doing early impressions of Chuck Inglish beats to reciting "A Little Bit Cooler" as a mantra for embracing individuality. They recently announced the upcoming release of their first album in nearly [...]
TG* TV Season 2 Concept/Episode 1
As previously stated, I am bringing back TG* TV, a series on Instagram's IGTV (for video >1 min) where I put a verse to a song I enjoy. When I started this series at the beginning of the coronavirus shutdown I didn't have a theme and had just started writing for Twentywanting. It evolved into [...]
“Millennial Rant” Music Video
I had another successful collaboration with Denisse Castliglia, who worked with me on my last music video for "In The Dark". After shooting the album artwork for Twentywanting, it made perfect sense to have her at the helm for the album's first video. "Millennial Rant" shows you around my part of The Shore and some [...]
“Skinny Suge” Remix

https://www.instagram.com/tv/CMXPLstn2s9/?igshid=16dxx12qq4uip https://www.instagram.com/tv/CMZtNWYpOHt/?igshid=vd9dxwvgwuyf As I prepared to enter the mixing phase of the mysterious #Album2, I knew I still wanted to deliver content and stay creative. Due to coronavirus concerns, the Grammy Awards were pushed back to mid-March from the normal date on the last Sunday in January. So I figured I'd pop out with a [...]
New Single “Cope”
After several delays (mainly self-inflicted) prevented this single from dropping around the end-of-year holidays, "Cope" is finally out. As the title implies, it's less about holiday spirit and more about finding the spirit to persevere. After a year like 2020 and an event like the Capitol insurrection to start 2021, it may be fitting that [...]
TG* TV Ep. 8: Sing Along
https://www.instagram.com/tv/CHqww63JSeA/?igshid=rjkkuri54l0q For this TG* TV I reflected on the tension of the presidential election and take a moment to exhale. I thought that "Sing Along" from fellow UD grads Mean Lady best fit the mood.
