Toe the Line (Rated E)
Words: 18,505 Chapters: 8/8
As Crowley and Aziraphale dine at the Ritz they are treated to a particularly reminiscent parade of chef's specials that spark memories of the past 2000 years. Crowley quietly panics his way through each course, drowning his anxiety in rather large amounts of alcohol. Aziraphale is helplessly drawn back into his own memories of their time together in the world they both love and every time they walked right up to the limits of their association.

MCVERTT SHARES NEW VIDEO SINGLE “HATE THE REAL” (FEAT. 41)
Still riding the momentum from a 2023 GRAMMY “Best Rap Song” nomination for his work on Lil Uzi Vert’s 2X RIAA Platinum hit “Just Wanna Rock” (1.5B Streams), Jersey Club trailblazer MCVERTT has made his long-awaited return with a new video single "Hate The Real" (feat. 41) — out via Warner Records and 100%/1865/Defiant Records.
Serving as the prolific producer and songwriter’s first release of 2024, the track features Brooklyn rap group 41 (Kyle Richh, TaTa, and Jenn Carter), who he previously collaborated with on last year’s RIAA Gold-certified single “Bent” (215M Streams). Bolstered by a danceable beat that highlights MCVERTT’s signature Jersey Club sound that he’s helped put on the map, “Hate The Real” is a celebratory ode to the good life — even in the face of the challenges that accompany newfound success. The track arrives on the heels of a breakthrough year for MCVERTT, who recently earned his first artist entry on the Billboard charts with the Sexxy Red and A$AP Ferg-assisted “Face Down” (20M Streams).
At just 20 years old, MCVERTT has already built a reputation for himself as one of the next generation of rap’s go-to producers. The Garden State tastemaker first garnered momentum through his work with longtime collaborator Bandmanrill, both of whom record executive Steven “Steve-O” Carless recruited to join his Defiant Records imprint following the success of their viral song "Heartbroken”.
Since then, MCVERTT has continued to carve out his own lane in the Tri-State Area and beyond, working with the likes of Lil Uzi Vert (“Just Wanna Rock”), Cash Cobain (“Messy”), and IShowSpeed on his viral hit “Shake” (205M Streams). Now with “Hate The Real”, MCVERTT is continuing his rapid ascension into the upper echelons of producers as he prepares to release his debut full-length album later this year, pushing the sonic boundaries of Jersey Club ever forward.
