Get to know: Trapgurl Rea

trap

Explain who you are for those who don’t know

I’m a 22 year old, hot female rapper by the name of Trapgurl Rea. Born and raised on the Southside of Chicago, I’m now taking over Pittsburgh, Pa . I’m inspired by street music and HipHop/ Rap but I’m versatile with my lyrics and I can rap about anything . I been rapping for about 7 years , but I took a break from it , now aint no stopping me.
 
How did you come up with your name?
Me and my twin loved Gucci Mane and Waka Flocka’s music. We was rocking with the whole 1017 BrickSquad movement. They always said something about Trap Girls in their music, and with the lifestyle we was living, we related to every song.

Where are you from?
I’m from the southside of Chicago, IL. The Englewood area, where people don’t even live to see 21, so I’m blessed.

Whats it like growing up where your from?
When I was growing up it was fun, we could chill on the block, or go to parties without worrying about if it’ll get shot up or not. But as I got older, it started getting somewhat crazy, I remember being 14-15 yrs old , on the block with the guys, carrying around guns , not cause we wanted to but cause we had to, it’s all about survival in Chicago. It definitely wasn’t as crazy as it is now though, now all you hear about is kids getting killed , it’s sad. My city the most beautiful city I ever seen though, the food good, and Chicago got so much talent in it.

How did you get into music?
Every time I heard a song I liked, I remixed it and did my own lil version of it, after a while I started writing my own songs, I haven’t stopped ever since.

What makes you different than other artists?
I’m young but I got an old soul, I don’t follow trends, I do my own thing. Most artists rap about anything, I like rapping about stuff I actually seen or go through. The same person you seen in my videos or on social media is the same person you’ll meet in person. Plus I wanna help build the Confidence of women with my music.

What are you currently working on?
I recently dropped my EP “Still Trap’n #FreeDoughEdition”
on Soundcloud, My Mixtapes , and ReverbNation. I’m working on the videos for that EP, and I’m working on my original mixtape right now too. Make sure u check it out

Get to know: Mic Miles

“Mic Miles, a young budding artist from Cleveland Ohio got his start in music back in 2010, recording for fun with a group of friends. Raised by a single mother for half of his life, Miles had to resort to some creative measures to make friends. “I went to 5 different elementary schools before moving to the suburbs in 6th grade. I was always the new kid so I use to rap popular songs on the bus to make friends” says Miles.”

mic

Explain who you are for those who don’t know
My name is Mic Miles, a hip-hop recording artist from Cleveland Ohio

How did you come up with your name?
Its my real name, I used to go by lil ice but I felt like I couldn’t go by any other name with the way that I rap. its real rap so I use my real name

Where are you from?
Originally from Cleveland Ohio moved all around the city til I was about 10 then moved to the suburbs I currently reside in Eastlake Oh beter known as “The Grease”

Whats it like growing up where youre from?
Growing up in Cleveland was hard because it’s just a tough city to be from. There’s a lot of poverty and violence around every corner but I feel like the suburbs were just as hard. Its more mental then physical violence in the burbs. In Cleveland you have might have to worry about getting shot but in the suburbs you have to worry about being a suspect just because of the way you look or just being accepted in general is hard.

How did you get into music?
My brother use to rap and he was dope so I was like man I could do that lol I really just wanted to be like him but I’ve also always had a love for music and great sounds

What makes you different than other artists?
I feel like Im different from other artists because Im actually rapping. The standard of music has gone down in my eyes nowadays all you need is a hot beat and some adlibs to be considered a good artist. No one really says anything in their music anymore so im trying to bring back real rap and real bars.

What are you currently working on?
Im currently working on a new project titled “Happy Hour” im not 100% sure if it will be another mixtape or an Ep but I do know it will be all bars hence the name “Happy Hour”.

Anything you would like to say? 
My new project Happy Hour should be released by late Summer. Check out my latest mixtape “The Other Side” on spinrilla and mymixtapez. My lead single Validation from that mixtape is available on Itunes as well. My advice for any upcoming artist is to remember that this is a business at the end of the day so be about business first and foremost.

Get to know: Chri$.E

chri

Explain who you are for those who don’t know
Well for those who dont know me, I go by the name of Chri$.E

How did you come up with your name?
My name originally originated from my full name, which is ‘Christoff Emmanuel Stewart’ I just kept ‘Chris’ and the letter E.. trying to make the name catchy.. and eventually it stuck

Where are you from?
Born & raised in Georgetown, Guyana for the first 9 years of my life, After that came to Brampton, Ontario & I currently live in King, Ontario

Whats it like growing up where your from?
We’ll since I’ve lived in different cities its had its ups and downs, least I can say is I’ve never became a product of my environment

How did you get into music?
It all started off in high school, me & my friends would all freestyle for fun and throw jabs at each other.. Have little battles here and there just to test each others skills.  Pretty sure theres  embarrassing videos somewhere on Facebook where some people posted it but it’s gonna take a lot of digging to find it so good luck

What makes you different than other artists?
What really makes me different is I don’t like just making one thing and I don’t like to put myself in a box so I really push myself creatively to think of different flows different slangs and different ways to express myself just in an effort to make myself as an artist stand out amongst my peers

What are you currently working on?
As of late I have some songs saved up for an EP I want to release later on in the year and I have some other songs under the radar ready to fire off but I prefer quality over quantity  so if I drop something it’ll be really good and I really push it so you can hear it because I never want to drop multiple songs and it takes away shine from a song that hasn’t fully grown as yet if you know what I mean..

Anything you would like to say?
aha its Chri$.E look dont touch!

Where are you from?
I’m from Franklinton, LA a small town in Washington parish.

Whats it like growing up where your from?
It’s really hard because it’s a trap hole. Most people give up on they dreams because people so negative and full of hatred they will down talk a person dreams.

How did you get into music?
I always wrote raps just never put it out there. I just started getting recorded about 2 months ago.

What makes you different than other artists?

Indy Spotlight: Rich Rebel

img_1995

How did you come up with your name?
It started with a saying we had which was “rebel 2 society” in high school, but as time went on and we started doing music we changed it to “Rich Rebel”. Our individual artists names are KP and Rachi.

Where are you from?
We’re from the city of Atlanta, Ga.

Whats it like growing up where your from?
It’s a good place, but it could get rough at times, it’s drugs, deaths, guns, but it also could be a good environment when it wants to be. when everyone stays to themselves everything is smooth.

How did you get into music?
We always liked music growing up, always rapping and stuff like that, but as we got older, like in our senior year in high school we started to take it more seriously.

What makes you different than other artists?
What I feel that makes us different from other artists is our work ethic, and just the way we think and come up with ideas, and put our ideas together to make dope tracks, we could work and make a track in 30 minutes, and make a possible hit record, and we got bars for days, we’re like a rare breed.

What are you currently working on?
We are currently working on a mixtape, that’s coming really soon, No name, No date, but when it drops nothing but hits, we’re going crazy, we’re going to literally change a lot of rappers’ styles. I promise.

Anything you would like to say? 
Rich Rebel, two new up and coming artists out of Atlanta, Ga. it’s two of us but we are one simple, can’t separate us, can’t change us. This rap thing is easy, making hits is easy, they’re going to see real soon. its a lot of low-key hate, but its also love. We thank everybody, and watch out we coming hard. REBEL GANG

Explain who you are for those who don’t know.
I’m Tron Pheiffer, a rapper out of Houma, Louisiana.

How did you come up with your name?
I came up with pheiffer as an extension of phife from ATCQ. I told my homie and he told me to make my first name tron.

Where are you from?
Houma, Louisiana.

Whats it like growing up where your from?
Its a small town run by the oil field so if youre not doing that, you need to find a better way. other than that, theres really nothing to do down here.

How did you get into music?
I was in band in elementary and high school so music was always around. My parents use to play oldies around our house and my sister and brother got me into hip hop and r&b.

What makes you different from other artists?
I’m different because my perspective is different. I’m talking from the perspective of a kid from the south that didn’t get into any of that extra shit. It was around me of course but I knew this is what i wanted to do for a long time.

What are you currently working on?
I’m working on a project that I hope comes out sometime in the near future. Other than that, just music in general trying to perfect my craft.

Anything you would like to say?
BLK all day. Houma representer.
