Nice print article from the Riverfront Times saying Doorway should be famous now!

By RFT Music Allison Babka: Rappers sometimes are known for waging lyrical (or worse) war on each other. Not so with Doorway: These guys have made it clear that collaboration and positivity are the keys to good tunes. A collective of individually talented artists, Doorway takes advantage of its killer songwriting chops to explore relationships, social issues, cautionary tales and more with hooks that are a little bit throwback, a little bit street and a whole lot of jam.

St. Louis rappers Nick Menn, RT-FaQ and Tef Poe dropped this gem of a video today. Sounding a bit more hardcore rock than normal, this video portrays multiple people fed up with their job, their bosses and even cheating boyfriends.

Check it after the jump!

I had the pleasure of kickin' it with these dudes last weekend at Hystory's mixtape release party. I must admit I hadn't listened to them prior to their live performance that night and their set instantly won me over with their intense, rapid flows.

While hangin' backstage, Whiteout showed me a preview of a new video they had planned to drop in a few days thereafter. Now it's time for you to check the video out for yourself, here's Starz Come Out:
