Tis Tha Szn

2023 has been a trip, no question. Coverage here has been mostly non-existent, but certain traditions must be observed: yes, there will be another VTHH Hip Hop Awards kicking off on January 2nd.

Coverage here has also been less important than ever. Bigg Faxx. This is a project that was started to make connections, to give a growing scene a sense of itself. Things were very different then. We're a couple years past needing that. We have a thriving, multi-layered hip hop scene in Vermont right now and it's all very much connected. That's thanks to their hard work, not this website.

In particular, I want to shout out Melo Grant, Mister Burns, Kelly Butts-Spirito, Big Rye, Nastee, Charlie Mayne, David Chief, Yung Breeze, Omega Jade, Caleb Lodish, Luis Calderin, and Conswank. All of them have gone above & beyond this year, putting in work to grow the culture and community. That list could & should be expanded. I'm already working on my long-ass "2023 in Review" joint, another ancient tradition worth keeping.

Past all that, things will remain quiet here, especially as 2024 marches on. I’m focusing my free time on my own music. Rest assured, though, there is too much history here for this website to ever disappear. The dot com will abide until the grid goes down, after that, I guess it’s homing pigeons and thumb drives.

Much respect to everyone making it happen. I look forward to more legendary moves and great releases next year. Things have never been so busy — or so dope.
