If you remember, Pittsburgh native Shad Black was going to drop Sneakers N Loudpacks back during the summer of ’12. It never happened, he disappeared and popped back up in a new year. “I Need” is all brazen about the type of women that he needs. Assistance from Slick Pulla and Wink Loc elevate an [...]

With an intro track, you’re supposed to successfully capture the attention of whoever is playing. It may be your first and only impression. We see artists like Meek Mill and Los master this art well, and on the underground scene Wink Loc seems to have done very well for the intro off Locomotive 3. The [...]

As Wink Loc’s name grew in this business, so did the Locomotive series. Young Jeezy may not be focused on putting his artists on, but Wink makes sure to do it himself with all the hard work that went into this project. Locomotive 3 is easily the biggest installment, gathering features from Pusha T, Smoke Dza, [...]

Shot in blue vision, Wink Loc provides a video to his most recent release, “Welcome 2 Da Terridome.” It captures a lot of street essence. Directed by Jay Dawg. One thing is for certain, Wink should do more records with The Olympicks if they sound like this. No date yet, but expect Locomotive 3 to [...]

Next to the J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League, The Olympicks have to be one of the best production teams in hip-hop. They provide a resplendent beat for Wink Loc to rock his street-influenced, “I made it” rhymes over for his second single. Put this on repeat for a couple times. “Welcome 2 Da Terrirdome” is that good. Locomotive 3 [...]

“Walking with the lord, but I stay strapped” CTE affiliate Wink Loc is dropping the third installment of Locomotive sometime in February. The mixtape’s first single, “Til’ They Kill Me,” has a guest appearance from Shoota getting vivid about the streets. Then, Wink comes and adds to that with lines like,  ”Say they free me [...]

With his fellow CTE buddies, Tone Trump drops an interstate hustler anthem of sorts. The message is “fuck where you from, it’s ’bout where you at.” Make things happen in any city. The New Fresh Prince out July 31. Tone Trump Ft. Wink Loc, Boo Rossini & Slick Pulla – City 2 City (Prod. By Cardiak) [...]

Strive for success and aim to achieve it. Wink Loc’s inspirational record goes black and white in it’s visual to give the exact perspective these three rap/sing about. Directed by Benjamin West. Look out for Wink’s West Coast tape coming soon. Previously: Maino Ft. PUSH!, Mouse, Lucky Don, Wink Loc & Twigg Martin – Welcome [...]

Maino has been affiliated with each of these artists during his entire career. So, constructing a new group called The Mafia makes sense. Take this snazzy joint as an introduction to each member if you haven’t heard of one. A project is likely in the works too. Maino Ft. PUSH!, Mouse, Lucky Don, Wink Loc [...]

Trayvon Martin may be on the cover for this collaboration record, but it’s much more than him. It’s a community that is basically written into struggle and failure. For anyone that’s had to overcome adversity, Wink, Chazo and Drug wrote this record for you. The Ben West-directed video is coming soon. Wink Loc Ft. Chazo & [...]
