This episode features a chill set with a few turn up moments from artists like Coco Jones, Sza, Usher, Miguel, Beyonce & More.
Songs like this make me recognize how far the music has come. Music is about emotion and feel and we simply wanna keep you “Movin”. S/O @choclettp for always coming through and delivering classic vocals. @thedraeslapz we got us one. Our new single “Movin” out on all platforms now!
visualizer for consumer knowledge. It’s summer time so we gotta continue with the heat. @ayocovi gave us a classic hook and @briggzzy.tme gave us a verse that tied it all together. These two with @thedraeslapz on the beat gave us an undeniable sound. Northwest we got us one and “That’s Cool” out on all platforms now!
Tasting Notes | Pinot Mix at Rodeo Hills Winery
This one’s for the depth. The soul. The complexity. We paired the 2022 Rodeo Hills Pinot Noir with a set rooted in Hip-Hop and R&B—moody, smooth, layered. Just like the wine, it moves with intention.
Tasting Notes is where wine and music meet on purpose. It’s a curated experience built for the matured palate, blending pours with playlists that amplify the emotion in every glass. Think of it like a wine tasting with a soundtrack—or a DJ set with terroir.
We launched this series at Rodeo Hills with close friends and collaborators, and the Pinot set was the anchor. Press play and let it breathe.

Tasting Notes | Chardonnay Mix at Rodeo Hills Winery
This set was poured straight from the soul. We paired a 2021 Rodeo Hills Chardonnay with a blend of Afrobeat, Amapiano, and a little more heat for good measure. Matching the crisp, bright citrus notes of the wine with these upbeat vibes.
Tasting Notes is an experience where wine meets music in perfect harmony. I created this series to bring people into a space that feels intentional, intimate, and elevated. It's not just about what you hear or what you sip—it's about how both come together to shift the atmosphere.
We launched this at Rodeo Hills with close friends, collaborators, and fam. Here's a taste of that first pour.
Curated by yours truly,
Drae Slapz
This was the hardest song I have ever had to write. You have been gone for over 13 years, and it took all that time for me to come up with the words as I wanted them to be natural , and from the heart. You made me everything that I am. No, you were not perfect but you showed me you don’t have to be if you lead with love. There a lot of people that can relate to these struggles and I truly believe that is what is missing from our genre lately, and what music is truly for. You always told me I had a talent and would use it to help others. However, I never knew it would be a subject like this that if one is blessed , we all will experience. Thank you for giving me a voice and watching over your baby boy. Love you Mom, rest easy until we see each there again, and we will. I don’t blame you for anything, It doesn’t get better you get use to it 💯
Not just talking about it, we live it. Yeah, goes into the lifestyle of Dyrect and Drae Slapz and shows the attitude they take around the world. Real rap is back

Dyrect & Drae Slapz have been building this project for our fans brick by brick. This song represents crossing the finish line into a new space as we bring in our first major feature (Rexx Life Raj). Rexx has millions of listeners and his style compliments Dyrect's style very well on this feature. Overall, this song represents the "fruits of labor" and finally putting the masses "on". Many will love the catchy "90's" style hook with smooth bars aimed at the summer season!

Drae Slapz & SamuelThe1st made a years worth of noise in the Portland Hip-Hop scene since the release of their EP, Yuh. Whether it was produced, engineered, merchandised, promoted or all of the above by Slapz, you know it must have a special vibe to it.
With the amazing help of The Mast Co. behind the camera, we were able to bring this project to life with some visuals for the lead song, TRBL Man.
