Explain who you are for those who don’t know

I see myself as a revolutionary using the art form of rap to communicate my mission to the masses. I see myself as a true artist who makes songs that are real, not just what people want to hear.

How did you come up with your name?

My government name is Kenneth McElroy Jr. My father was a football superstar in my area and they called him Kenny Mack. I call myself KennyMackForever as a shout out to my father and to God, because I’m gonna live Forever.

Where are you from?

I’ve been living in Tampa for about 5 years now, and it has my heart but I was born in a town called Titusville, Florida.

Whats it like growing up where your from?

People from the city say my hometown is mad country. Maybe it is, I guess that makes me a country boy. There wasn’t much to do outside of playing sports, getting in trouble and making music where I’m from. But I thank God I was born there.

How did you get into music?

My father started rapping when hip-hop began. As far back as I can remember, he was freestyling in the house. As soon as I could talk I was freestyling songs into a little boombox he had. Music never really left me since that point.

What makes you different than other artists?

As an artist, I’m seeking after the listeners heart, I’m aiming at their mind. I’m not an artist who is in this for fame, girls or money. Hip-hop has a great influence on the people, I use that platform to truly make people think. To question why we do what we do. My music doesn’t glorify the very things that are killing our community, but rather analyzes why these things are happening and what we can do to better them. I want to lead my listeners to a higher understanding, to lead them to God.

What are you currently working on?

I’m always grinding at all times. I’ve dropped a lot of songs and videos recently and am working on a true come up, hoping and praying that hip-hops revival can aid me in that.

Anything you would like to say? 

Rappers need to use their platforms responsibly. Why do we rap about our women like they’re nothing but thots and hoes, why do we brag about murder in our music when our brothers are lying dead in the streets? I’m far from perfect, but to me that doesn’t make sense.

Explain who you are for those who don’t know

For the people who doesn’t know me YET, my name is Essa Kouyate and my rapper name is Eazzee.I am 17 years old and born and raised from the Bronx, New york but moved to and coming up with my music from 360 Washington, Mount vernon.

How did you come up with your name?

My name came from all sorts of things actually, from my teacher calling me Eazzee cause everything I did in his class I would say is easy. So I added a twist to it and spelled it differently. And my Ma would call me Eazzee when she would tell me to do stuff and it was just a nickname for me.

Where are you from?

Born and raised in boogie down Bronx, featherbed lane In New york.

Whats it like growing up where your from?

Growing up there was nothing but hard times and struggles.Everyone knew eachother on the block so if you were new we all would of known that same day. Their was savages out their to, tons of em always chilling looking for someome to cross em or do something. Sometime you didn’t have to do anything and they will still come at you.You would never know what was going to happen on the block. One day someone gets run up on, the next everyone be chilling like nothing ever happened. It was a normal thing.

How did you get into music?

I got into music by just going into a class they have at my school. I always wanted to do music but just never knew how, so after I found out there was a studio and all the productions and all that stuff I started going in everyday and learning and little by little I started picking up a fan base and started growing. But I want to take it further by reaching people out my city and state I’m at.

What makes you different than other artists?

What makes me different from others is besides my different taste in music. I have a different taste in style and the way I go about things. I wear two different shoes cause instead of just style it means something to me, it represents peace like  yin yang and if you listen in my songs that why I say yin yang cause its me tryna symbolize peace and how I represent it. That why I have a gang called yin yang gang as well. We all stand for it. I don’t do my music also for just me I do it for my family really. I want them to be blessed and I wanna make em proud and make sure they experience the life they really deserve. So when I start eating and make it big they gonna be eating with me too.

What are you currently working on?

I am currently working on my Single called” Brand New”
that is dropping this month in August. And also my music video that is dropping in August to for another single called “Snakes”. You can check that song out on my mixtape called “Different” on soundcloud. @Eazzee

Stay tuned

How did you come up with your name?
My name is actually my real name, at the time when I started rapping no cool nicknames were really sticking so I chose to run with it cause it went well together.

Where are you from?
Hartford, CT. The city can be very dry at times depending on what type of person you are you have to really create your own fun. It’s very cliquey and standard, its some what like hell for creatives because there’s not much support and belief for the arts. Violence goes on like any other city but if you keep out the mix you won’t be affected much. At the end of the day I wouldn’t trade where I come from, the hardships made me more humble and consistent.

How did you get into music?
My father and my older brother rapped, when I was in 3rd grade I made my first song ever but because my father never made it and wasn’t in my life I chose to hide my talent until my junior year of High School when my close friend “Vee Skeeno” persuaded me to take it more seriously.

What makes you different than other artists?
My flows separate me from other artists, my style, and the way I think in general is different from artists today. I’m really pushing for a state that doesn’t get any thought at all when it comes to Hip-Hop. Music really is my passion, I don’t do it for a check like some and at the end of the day I’m still going to write as a release from outside stress.

What are you currently working on?
I’m currently working on my first album ever called “Smoove World” and I’m hoping to really break through and disrupt the game with this one so I’ve been taking my time on it.

Anything you would like to say?
Yes.. Watch out I’m drippin drippin, watch out I’m drippin!

Stream below

Explain who you are for those who don’t know
“I go by the name of Fact$, and I’m a superstar”

How did you come up with your name?
“My homeboy and I started responding facts to everything, and it basically stuck with me, because I try to depict my life through the name I stand for. The ($) is just because money is the motif.”

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.”

How did you get into music?
“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.”

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