Where are you from?
“Houston, TX”

Whats it like growing up where your from?
“Houston is really big, but one way or the other, you somehow know everyone. It’s home though, has its own culture from chopped and screwed music, grills, or even how we talk.”

“My homeboy Wes and I would always freestyle and make these tapes, but my freshmen year in college I would hang around some of my older friends that took rapping seriously. From then it started to grow on me, and I jumped in.”

What makes you different than other artists?
“I think I have a unique style where most people will hear my music and can’t really categorize me as to maybe what current artist I may sound like. My voice isn’t hard to listen to either.”

“I’m currently working on my first EP titled “FOR LIFE” that will be released Oct. 31, 2017.”

Brooklyn New York

Whats it like growing up where your from?

It wasn’t like other country’s u feel me. But growing up was tough, only man in the house My parents got divorced. It was just me and moms  Living together. Had to take of her. Had to hustle, was never spoon fed. Had to get up and get shit done. While growing up I turned crip 83x. Always with the tr3s, had my bacc since day 1, never switch up. Been crippin since day 1 but we like to call ours selves tr3. Been in out through bars, life wasn’t easy. Nothing was given  to me for free Had to work for everything. This ain’t the life I’d have my kids live. But u know what u sign up for. So much more to say but I’ll save that for another time

How did you get into music?

Always loved music, hip hop r&b etc. Always had me relaxed. Had myself always write Poetry, I was around the age maybe about 7-8. But I didn’t really take my  music career serious till about this year, 20years old right now. It’s never too late to start and chase ya dream.

Ima keep it a 💯, Me and my squad unique. People probably say that all the time but I’m different. People always worried about what others think, people always tryna be somebody they not, rappin stuff that never happend to them never did. But that’s not me. I’m always myself in and or out the booth. Always vibing doing my thing, I like to socialize with other artists and communicate

The Brooklyn – native ReP aka Rooftop ReP, delivers the record “Here I Am”

While we await the highly anticipated drop of #ONLYGOODVIBES.  The Brooklyn – native ReP aka Rooftop ReP, delivers the record “Here I Am”  produced by Precision Productions (produced for Chaka Khan, Machel Montano, Tessanne Chin, Carl Thomas and Toni Braxton) off the new project #ONLYGOODVIBES.  ReP’s cadence and confident presence over the energy-filled synths track makes for a catchy anthem to solidify the vibe he’s here & all is good!

Cognac & Roses – Pull Up

Orlando, FL living, but originally from Jacksonville, NC, artist Cognac & Roses dishes out his latest single “Pull Up.” The Iggy-produced effort features an airy and sonic driven textured instrumental that’s well matched with Cognac & Roses’ lyricism and synth-like voice. The theme of the record is centered around the self reflection of knowing that one is caught up with the dark side of reality and feeling like you’re drowning (“drowning in waves”). Listen for yourself below! The song is also available on Apple Music, Tidal, Google Play, and Spotify.

Get to know: BlackOut

fullsizerender

Explain who you are for those who don’t know

BlackOut although it may not be known yet just a 24 year
old from Baltimore, Maryland will be a household name in the next couple of months!

How did you come up with your name?

As a youngin’ I had a od anger problem and always was
snappin or blacking out, when I first started rapping I was really into freestyling just getting on different beats and running the whole track, a lot of the people around me always said I would black on the beat or black out so it kinda just stuck with me.

Where are you from?

I was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland. I’m a 410 baby!

Whats it like growing up where your from?

Growing up where I’m from wasn’t easy at all but without
a father made it even harder at the that! Even though I moved out of the city at a young age I fell in love with the street life and wrong crowd at a very young age which caused my childhood to deal with a lot of road bumps and run in with the law!

How did you get into music?

Growing up I was always watching BET & MTVjams I would
even leave school early to go watch videos or act like I was a rapper in front of da mirror lol. I always loved music and when I was in middle school I started freestyling and eventually wrote my first rap

What makes you different than other artists?

I’m the only artist from my city that puts as much passion
and dedication into what I do! Music isn’t just a hobby for me or some quick way to get money it’s a lifestyle and something I see myself making a major mark in the near future! I’m going to give Baltimore a strong back bone in the music industry and show
people in my city that no matter what you go through or what troubles you get yourself into it’s never too late to make your mark or do what you love doing!

What are you currently working on?

I’m currently working on two tapes: I am preparing and
set to drop my debut mixtape on August 17th “Now Or Never” which is hosted by DJ 837 and consist of 15 songs and I promise is going to show everybody what I have in store for the years to come!  There’s also a joint project (EP) my label and gang BagBoy$ Ent
are currently working on called ‘Practice Makes Perfect’ which features two other artist and people I grew up with from the sandbox “BagBoyKevo & ShellzP” one from maryland and the other baltimore!

Anything you would like to say? 

I just want everybody to remember the name BlackOut and
pay attention “Now or Never” is dropping soon and I promise it’s going to be the best thing out!
