D.C. Cortez & Drew Dave "Stoop Stories" (Album Stream)


'Stoop Stories', an album presented to you by Washington D.C. emcee D.C. Cortez, and Alexandria, VA, but PG County residing producer Drew Dave, is an album inspired by waiting for the Metrobus, route 70, which runs through the Georgia Avenue section of Washington D.C. The soul of the city. It depicts the stories you see in the faces of long time residents, who no longer remember their city. The shown empathy for one set of people, and the lack thereof for another, battling addiction. The continued, state-sanctioned plunder of black lives at the hands of the police. Friendships that were severed: some due to action; some that drifted apart due to time. An attempt through audio, to be a time capsule one can revisit and notice every neighbor, store, bar, and stoop, untouched by the constant hand of change. With Drew Dave's production pulsating the pavement and D.C. Cortez's lyrical precision, 'Stoop Stories' serves as a harmonious stroll through the nation's capital. As told by those who travel the beaten paths far from the domes, monuments, and tourist destinations, that most have come to associate with Washington D.C. Give a listen to their Stoop Stories below...
