CHICAGO MIXTAPE RELEASE SHOW [buy tickets here]: It's going down this week Thursday. Check the flyer for details:
THI in the RS: Thanks to friend-of-the-Hood, Terrence, for pointing out that a Hood Internet track got mentioned as a "hot tip" in the newest issue of Rolling Stone, even if they didn't mention us by name.
Here we go: it's the official release of The Hood Internet vs Chicago. We've got 23 completely new jams for you, 24 if you count the intro. Some of the artists on here have been in Chicago for a minute, some are relatively recent transplants, and some have even moved away -- but at one point or another, they called Chicago home. And yes, there are a few cameos from some non-Chicagoans, but seeing as they were already part of the track(s) in question, they're like friends of friends, you know?

As you may or may not have noticed, the Hood postings have been relatively slow lately. That's because we've been hard at work (see photo below) on our next mixtape, The Hood Internet vs Chicago, which officially drops on Tuesday. It's 23 completely new Hood joints; you can take a look at the tracklist and corresponding cast of characters right here.
