Eight years on the hip hop scene is enough to call yourself a veteran, and perfecting the craft in a neighborhood just south of downtown Chicago is a venture tough for any man to conquer. But PVM (aka PiffVonMar) has taken the claim to the top in a progressive light, breathing a new air into the Windy City. Hard work and speaking truth are not only staples of his style, but life mantras and morals to live by. Having an inspirational family in his corner feeds the drive to move forward. Today, PVM celebrates “The Claim EP” release — the first out of the emcee’s vault after a three-year hiatus to perfect an organic sound. The 13 tracks and short documentary celebrate the victory of making it so far, but outline the journey ahead and what it takes to claim a spot at the top.
Listen to “The Claim” and find out what PVM is all about.
