Journey (Itâs Yo World)Â
As the profile of Nashvilleâs hip-hop scene rises, so does the star of one of the communityâs biggest talents, rapper Brian Brown. Brown released his debut full-length project
Journey in January, proving that his toolkit contains much more than a knack for lending features and writing catchy loosies like 2018âs âStoop Kidâ or 2017âs âRic Flair.â The excellent
Journey track âA Cashville Storyâ takes stock of current-day Nashville and its gentrification-induced ills, a prime example of Brownâs aptitude for coupling clear-eyed critiques with his hook-laden flows. BRITTNEY McKENNA
