"...Tell Me Where You've Been, Cause They Been Askin' They Been Searchin They've Been Wondering Why"

We've been around, busy for the most part with music, school, and whatnot (still in high school remember). Music is on it's way we've dropped a lot considering the time frame between our last big drop, we've dropped J.Styles' solo Star Watch, performed, dropped a single off of the BBS2 promo, released Maxx 39's video for Reality, and since then have started the #NoBusic campaign (Busic = BS + Music), so we've kept you in the loop to an extent we're keeping underground with our heads above ground we've let our presence be known we really can't do much more than that at this point but after we drop the Promo for BBS2, which also includes a few videos, we'll be popping up on a few blogs here and there and more so than ever be promoting but to you whom don't really care we shan't waste our time any longer on sending you things to check out, especially if you don't intend on doing so no sweat off our backs you will find yourselves enjoying our music one day and we'll just sit back and enjoy it but until then we won't bog your news feed down with our "spam" or congest your timeline with our numerous tweets, we'll be ninjas with our promotion style now, that will register with due time.

Overdosage of music. We're taking a break but not at the same time.

7-Day Forecast was dropped yesterday and overall it was a sucessful tape. We got a lot of love from all the fans, including the starCHasers  (Shoutout to Chris Baker) so we appreciate that #Deadass.


The League is taking a break from music. But The League is gonna keep making music and overdosing the  world with it. Confused?


J.Styles- Star Watch coming out very soon. Hopefully match it with a Thanksgiving release? (TBA).
I'm very excited for  this tape because it truly shows the power and lyrical content of J.Styles. Out of all of us, he might be the most under appreciated by people and this tape will show why people shouldn't F*#k with him. Lyrical content, along with the punchlines and the heavy hitter beats (You are now in tune with Arab Music). All that will wrap up into one of the best tapes any of our artists have dropped.


T.R.U.T.H. and D-Prince- This Life Of Love
Woody's Lovelife EP was definitely a classic. Of course it is in our honor to be making a tape about love, love interests, and love problems. I  will explain my situations and how they apply to my everyday ideology. I will show my flaws and how those flaws create my strengths. T.R.U.T.H. on the other hand will show the struggles he's had in his relationships and how these create his mindset and thoughts about the concept of love. This is one of the only mixtapes that we have with a lot of features. Singers, Female Rappers (JUICY WHERE YOU AT?), and other rappers, along with the deep metaphors and lyricism, will create a tape full of emotion, love, and will make listeners explore their own feelings and emotions to see if they have been taking the right actions when dealing with the concept of love.


Erion- Unsigned: Coming To You Live
This tape is gonna be super dope with Erion finally coming out with his solo tape. This tape is gonna be an amazing mixtape filled with different aspects of hip-hop.


Check this out by Erion Feat. Maxx39

Grammy Family (Single) by The League (JL)

The League is an army. We are overdoing music this next month and we'll wrap it up in time for Christmas.

After A Day Of Normalcy The Weather Is Beginning To Take A Turn For The Best (Our 7 Day Forecast Was Correct)

The long anticipated 7-Day Forecast has dropped and the verdict on it is favorable we can live with that from the forecast given from the rest of this week expect mild temperatures (nothing too hot or too cold) I think the analogy is quite easy to catch if not think hard if you think you thought hard think harder if you've thought the hardest you've thought ever and still don't get it #KanyeShrug. This week has started out pretty good we're trying to get back on the horse with the Black Friday Cyphers so expect one this week I think there a general good feeling felt by all of The League right now for different reasons but all that matters is there is a good feeling let the rest of this week be all clear skies

Hard Work, Better Music

We of The League regret not posting much in the past days but this is only because we're getting ready to drop one project and are currently working on another. "The 7 Day Forecast" or the Storm Tape as many refer to it as is almost finished, there are just a few more things left to do. God willing we will hopefully release it this weekend or early next week depends on what Dboy is planning keep you guys posted on that. Then from there me and Dboy are working on "A Life of Love" the tales of the hardships of love and romance we've had we've recruited the help of many on this project we wont put out anymore info on that than we have to so just keep a lookout for any hints we may drop. Then from there or in between there we want to shoot some music videos and not any flip video camera stuff either we will try for the best we can get so get ready for those. There are a lot of improvements we've made with our projects this time around individually and as a group I hope you guys can recognize and appreciate that when you hear the finished product of all these songs we're going to be giving you guys to hear.

Until next time.

Presently Thinking For The Future

7 Day Forecast


This project represents all the opportunity presented to The League. This is aBIG project in meaning, short in content but some of our best work as a group. I would like to take this next sentence to give a HUGE thank you to Storm Watkins he may be one of the coolest producers we've met over the course of the summer and the end of this year we will continue to thank you for your generosity as a producer. The reason for the name well take that last sentence into deep thought and you'll know why we named it 7 Day Forecast. This project will speak for itself it really shouldn't need a lot of promotion but of course we will promote it nuff said

The only single for this project is here

Yet To Be Named


Me and Daniel have two projects in the works but I'm gonna focus on this right now. We called it Yet To Be Named because well I frankly wasn't sure what to name it this project is all on Charles Hamilton beats. I admit to lagging crucially on the verses but the first official single from it is Loser. Pretty good feedback from the StarCHasers so far. I would like a real response from Charles about it. As far as track listing we got some of the classics and out there beats fromHamiltonstrumentals put together by Halo "DjH2" Stevenson thank you for that. This project will probably be in the works for some time until we make sure it's absolutely perfect so I will leave you all in suspense.

The first single from this project here

A Life Of Love


This project was in no way shape or form planned out it began as just two tracks from Woody's LoveLife album which he generously put out all the instrumentals from. This is a project in which Daniel gets very what's, the word for it, he shows emotion to say the least. Me I speak on past crushes and future relationships I got the inspiration to do this from writing the song Leave Me Alone which I enlisted the help of Gabrielle Thompson, probably one of the greatest singers I've heard in my life #DEADASS. The song will be one of my best works because of how far out of the box I stepped you can read the lyrics in my notes and see. The thing which inspired Daniel to do this project is the ability to do different things with it the ability to get different artists and introduce another new artist Kevin Allen, who I've been working with him personally and have seen him through his growth, on the song Racing which is also going to feature Gabrielle. This project needs a special touch and a special release date. We will definitely keep you guys posted

The first track from this project here

Hope everyone is ready to see how we've grown as a group

"They Said You're Cold As The North Pole"

I make a lot of friends hardly keep half of them because of my personality and my way of "killing a moment" in other words I'm a downer. What do I have to say to this I don't care everyone else is so f*cking optimistic all the time I feel the need to bring some realism to them does that make make me a killjoy? To anyone who says yes get out of lollipop gumdrop land and wake the hell up sh1t is f*cked up in this world and it only gets worse with each passing day. everyone gets all excited about going off to college until their last day of college then it hits them the real world smack the living sh1t out of them and to those that think their degree is securing them a job it isn't look at the economy PhD's applying at Mc Donald's MIT students may be safe maybe even Harvard, Stanford, and Yale students but you others are not so when you get out of college have that plan B ready that's my realism for the day life is much colder than the north pole ever could be.

So many songs, It's considered a Super Session.

This weekend was definitely a weekend full of work. We OhDeeeeee'd in the booth. And that's no exaggeration. (8 complete songs)


T.R.U.T.H. came over to the studio friday night and immediately we had to record. It's been a while since he's been here.


1st track of the day.


What Would You Do?- Woody. Dboy/DNO/D-Prince and T.R.U.T.H.




This song is deep from the soul and brings forth a couple of questions. Specifically, what would you do if you had the chance to move forward? *What's the ideal woman for someone? All these questions are answered.


*This song was indirectly linked to someone on D's verse. Fuck it!!!


After that we went straight to the next song.


Loser- T.R.U.T.H. and Dboy/DNO/D-Prince


Loser by The League (JL)


This song means a lot to both of us.


"Have you ever had the feeling where people gotta call you a loser sometimes? No support, no nothing?"-D.


"How does it feel to wake up to the feeling knowing that a rapper can actually have feelings?"- T.R.U.T.H.


This song took 3 hours to make. Super soul. It's ridiculous. If you say this song is garbage, Battle.


Then Erion came in, made so many songs. (6 to be exact)


Check out his tape coming soon. Straight bars.


Where Was We Found (I'm Beamin') by The League (JL)






I don't even feel like typing anymore. The music definitely explains for itself.






It's The League and don't forget it.
