Rising Atlanta rap star Money Mu is adding another hit under his designer belt with the release of “Problem” featuring 1017 Records Pooh Shiesty. The boastful track finds the southern-bred duo going bar for bar about the good life as well as their hardships, all at breakneck speed.

With lyrical content that ranges from living life fully to flashy cars and jewelry, “Problem” is a classic summer anthem made to be played at full volume in the car and at the club. The record comes on the heels of the success of Mu’s celebratory hit single “Hittin’” featuring Moneybagg Yo and Foogiano, which to date has racked up over 43 million YouTube views.

Signed to indie imprint Authentic Empire, Mu is also a self-made entrepreneur in his own right as the founder of Still Paid, a burgeoning record label. Mu also operates a clothing brand that features BELIEVE-branded hoodies, sweatshirts and tees that speaks to his relentless faith in God and himself. “Problem” is available now on all streaming platforms Get It Now!

Authentic Empire Indie King Showcase, The Same Talent Competition That Helped Launch The Career of Foogiano, Announces DoughBoy D As The Winner of Indie King Showcase 4

On Saturday, April 3rd, Authentic Empire (AE) crowned Mississippi rapper DoughBoy D as the latest winner of their Indie King Showcase 4, which is the same talent competition that helped to launch the career of rapper Foogiano, now signed to Gucci Mane’s 1017 imprint via Atlantic Records. There was also a $40k cash money drop at the end of the night to conclude the weekend long festivities in honor of AE CEO Lavour “Boomman” Sanders’ 40th birthday.

Out of dozens of performers, the southern spitter edged out the competition with seemingly his whole state supporting him. Held at Atlanta’s Miami Lounge, both Friday and Saturday nights performance slots were booked solid with extensive crowds wrapped around the building, which left standing room only inside the venue. DoughBoy D won a $25k cash advance, in addition to a single deal valued at over $150k and an iced out AE chain. The next showcase is set to take place this summer and slated to be even bigger and better.

“I really enjoy changing lives and helping indie artists maximize their potential,” says Sanders, a former artist and music manager himself. “I love the process of developing talent and giving them a platform to be seen and heard.”

The people who aren’t afraid to take risks in this world will ultimately make it to a level of success that they never imagined. W8llahi a native of ‘Little Haiti’ in Miami is not only talented with his music but is highly intelligent and encourages the Black community to think outside the box. When you look at how the music scene has had an increase of financially successful Indie artists, you cannot help but notice how the hardest working ones are the most gifted. The numbers don’t lie and the artists who are taking charge of their music catalog, their masters, and overall brand image are reeking the benefits of living as a signed mainstream artist, without having to deal with the ‘puppet strings’ attached with janky label contracts. Also having the leg room to move freely with DIY music uploads and the accommodation of social media to promote your own music, there is a whole new wave of hungry artists behind the scenes really putting in pressure. W8llahi is one of those artists.

Despite the Coronavirus Pandemic leaving the entertainment industry nearly in shambles, he has still managed to knock out some amazing show performances this past summer and even worked with 3x ATL Hip Hop Awards Winner, DJ Capo. Being very lyrically diverse, he is finishing his last quarter of the year strong with an upcoming project and dedicated plans for 2021. His upcoming project titled ‘Good Boy’ is on the way for his fans and will include 13 new tracks. After seeing him on the ‘Live with Carisha’ show some things his fans should know about him is that he is super down to earth and very chill. He is also a proud Republican and does not feel Black Americans should automatically vote Democrat because of the color of their skin. His favorite Female rapper is Erica Banks, so hopefully we can see a collab from the two in the future. When we asked his 1-year plan for his career he commented that he is determined to begin headlining some major Music events and hitting the top 100 charts.
