Guess Who’s Back: Weekend Playlist by Doe The Paperboy

by | May 22, 2020 | MUSIC

Every Friday night, RVA Mag brings you an epic, glorious playlist curated by Virginia’s most influential artists, musicians, and institutions.

This time around, we’ve got a great one from Doe The Paperboy, aka D.O.E., an independent hip hop artist hailing from Petersburg, who recently released his second album, The 2nd Harvest. It may have just come out, but the song “Vert” is one you might recognize — AEW wrestler Pineapple Pete, aka Sugar Dunkerton, has used it as entrance music, so you just might have heard this track on AEW Dynamite.

While you’re waiting for the next episode to come on, you should give Doe The Paperboy’s playlist a spin. Not only does it feature several D.O.E. tracks, including the aforementioned “Vert” and a couple of other tracks from the new album, it also features some of D.O.E.’s biggest influences and most-loved artists, from Kendrick Lamar and J. Cole to John Mayer and The Roots. He hopes RVA Mag’s readers will enjoy this arrangement of songs as much as he does.

Get loose, Virginia.
