I wanted to show some love to the young homie Lil Dee on his latest release with The Truth Staten on “Not Like Me”. We covered Lil Dee over the summer, randomly finding him over Instagram. Dee was a young prodigy at the age of 12. He’s 16 now, maybe even 17 at this point. His voice grown now, but this young man still that prodigy.
We’re Back! Coverage of New Hip Hop Albums from Mark Battles & Jon Connor
It’s been a few months since we’ve posted on the site, and since then some things happened. Three months ago, I decided to take a step back from the Lyrically Rap blog and social media accounts. I was going through some things at the time. I was feeling like an imposter, like someone who didn’t belong in the rap culture. We were so focused on social media growth, and getting more clicks and grow the brand, that I lost focus of what we were really doing here at Lyrically Rap.

Social Media was affecting my mental health.
