In anticipation of the release of his sophomore project: Totally Xperimental II , Nigerian Born rapper / Producer Kene ( Formerly known as KAY X ) re-introduces us to his fresh Hip-hop / Afro-fusion sound in the new song titled ” Dripp ” .

Kene is one of those people i have known for a while . We crossed path at the University of Port Harcourt  where he was mostly producing for the likes of Timi kay and co. I have always admired his work ethics especially when it comes to dealing with music. Although , there was a moment when he left the scene due to some issues with school , i would say he has been relatively consistent. Kene has paid his dues in the game and i am happy all of  his issues are behind him; now he can now focused on his music.

Moral behind the meaning is being the best in anything that you do.  He is the founder and creator of Nap town revival; a friendly competition between  local hip hop artist in Indianapolis that aims to showcase the amount of talent present in the city .

On Food for thought, Sprove and NorrieTheGoat remind the female fans of  their credibility and brag about how much money they got. He is definitely one of the class acts in Indianapolis and i commend the work he is putting in.

Grimass is an independent rapper, writer and actor from Miami, FL. Born Carlson Pierre, Grimass started rapping at the young age of twelve and has since fell in love with music. Over time music has become his number one obsession.

The name Grimass is the Creole word for “Grimace” which is defined by the Merriam-Webster Dictionary as “A facial expression usually of disgust, disapproval, or pain.” He received the nickname name from his mother because as a young child, he was always running around making funny faces and entertaining everyone around him. Being the third of four children and growing up in the poor neighborhood known as “Little Haiti”, he did not always experience the best that life has to offer. However, he always believed that through his music and talent, he would make a better tomorrow for his family.

His new video for his single Destined is a joy to watch

I was reached out via Instagram by a very cool battle rapper by the name Dead Silence. I requested for his content and right from the moment i hit the play button i began saying to myself ” this is exactly how hip hop should sound ” .

Dead Silence starting exploring his talent at the age of 9 and began writing at 15. He knew that he had some potential behind the mic after completing his first performance by being the opener for Zapp & roger by the age 15. Currently he’s a dominant battle rapper, film scorer, and still remains as an unique lyricist.

The sacrifice is a song that narrates what goes on in the mind of a young hustler in Naptown.

Dead silence

I am happy that some artists are still lyrical in their approach and have substance in their music. I can not wait to see Dead silence blossom into something big in Indianapolis.
