Interview - Lil Dee Gods Gift

There's something about certain artists that stand out to me. I have met Lil Dee on several occasions, when it comes down to it, he's not your average artist. I got a chance to sit down with him, chop it up and homie had some good stuff to say.

Tae:
Tell me about Lil Dee Gods Gift.

Lil Dee:
I'm a 21 yr old artist born and raised in New Orleans on a mission to make good music and change peoples lives.

Tae:
What makes you stand out from other hiphop artists?

Lil Dee:
I would have to say the fact that I don't curse in my music and I rap about my life. Everyone's life is different but everyone doesn't rap about what their going through. In my music I give you everything you need to know about me and I feel thats rare now days.

Dice..Dice..Dice what can I say, after listening to this track, Heart of the City, you'll see why Dice is proud to call Houston his home. Houston should also be proud to call Dice one of their artists. Check out this track, give us feedback and be on the lookout for him. I'm sure he'll be blasting on a radio station near you.

*New Music* People Talk - Soopa

This 18 year old Broward County Florida representa caught me by surprise on Twitter. I had him send me a few tracks and man was I blown away. How could a kid, ahem, a young man of the tender age of 18 sound so much of the age of 27+? Check out Soopa, with the right guidance, he's going somewhere.

Interview - Tha Cartel

I got a chance to talk to one of New Orleans "NOLA Nominated" duos and they had quite a bit to say about themselves. I do believe you need to remember their name because they just might be playing on a station in your vicinity soon. Check out what Tha Cartel had to say:

Tae:

Who is Tha Cartel and how do you stand out from being another run of the duo?

Lefty: 

We’re original, we’re fresh, we young, we livin, from the music we do to the way we carry ourselves! We do what we feel needs to be done or said, we aint cutting no corners. We put a lot of passion and work into our craft, we dedicated.

Snakeyez: 

I feel like we’re bringing it back to the days when the music was authentic. Yeah,we brag in our songs and make catchy music too, but its not a gimmick and the people can tell. We put a lot into what we do and pay close attention to details which is what I feel a lot of people lack nowadays.

Mixtape Review - HeataBest - Drop Tha Heat

I've personally been waiting on this mixtape to drop, I first saw Heata Best at the Christmas in August Benefit Concert and if you know me, I tend to be a little tough on artists. I feel like I have to. You can't just put any artist on your showcase and for Ms. A. Domino to get Heata Best for her event could have possibly been the icing on the cake for me. Heata Best released "Drop Tha Heat" on 10.12.10 for the world to hear and I do believe my readers, that was a great choice, it happened to be his birthday. If you like quick witted metaphors, a little slick raunchiness and down right heat, you'll love this mixtape.

Grade: B- (I'm a fan of original beats and I get lost when I hear a beat from a mainstream artist with an underground artist on the track.)

Favorite Track: Light It Up

Least Favorite Track: Miss Me

Interview - Big K.R.I.T.

Tae recently had the opportunity to sit down with Big K.R.I.T. in New Orleans, LA at the Smokers Club Tour and get to know a little the former baseball player about where he wants to be.

Tae: 
Who is K.R.I.T.?

Big K.R.I.T.:
I am a King Remembered In Time, basically a soulful, humble, country musician trying to make timeless music.

Tae: 
How do you feel now as opposed to this time last year? Your fan base has grown so much.

Big K.R.I.T.:
It's a blessing, an opportunity to rap about life and get feedback. People can relate to it and I'm doing what I love, escaping poverty and giving inspiration to people from Mississippi.

Tae: Where do you see your music in 5 years?

Big K.R.I.T.:
I see myself branding my company, Multi Alumn, branding my sound, ushering in the return of "former" which is southern hip hop, the way I remember it.

Tae: I know you need to get on stage, how can people get in touch with you?

Big K.R.I.T.:
Twitter, I run my account so they can hit me up on Twitter @BIGKRIT

Here It Is!

Some of you may be following the SuperUgly movement, some of you may not. For those of you who are, you already know what it is. For those of you who aren't, SuperUgly is comprised of some of the hottest and I repeat the HOTTEST emcees in New Orleans. I say emcees because the way that bars roll off the tongues of Slangston Hughes, SpitRaw, A. Levy, E.D. Nix Lyriqs the Lyriciss, Lyrikill, and a few others (yes, their names escape me at 7:12 AM and I'll hear about it later) is fucking impeccable. This my friends is REAL EFFIN HIP HOP if you feel otherwise, like Bobby Brown sang thats your prerogative. Make sure you have room on your hard drives for the following:
