Rising Atlanta Hip-Hop artist ‘Crystal Lalucci’ just dropped the visual to her highly anticipated single ‘Diorr’ out now on all platforms.

The indie music scene in Atlanta is one of the biggest music scenes in America. Artists travel to the city all year long to record new music, network, and hit the ‘hot spots’ in hopes of getting their music to the next level. The biggest movers and shakers in the game have all stopped through the 404, and more then likely recorded with a dope Atlanta artist. Since winning Atlanta’s Most Slept on Hip Hop artist at the Atlanta Hip Hop awards, it has been go-time for Crystal Lalucci’s career! She recently dropped her debut EP ‘Casino’ out now on all platforms, produced by James Worthy. The budding female MC followed the release with several upcoming singles. ‘Diorr’ was influenced by New York rapper Pop Smoke who lost his life earlier this year in California. She wanted to do something positive in memory of the legendary rapper who was just starting to make serious waves in the industry and lost his life far to soon. Crystal also known as ‘Lulu wit the bars’ came hard on her delivery and dropped heavy bars on the track. Check out the video below and follow her on Instagram here > Crystal Lalucci

Indie artists are proving they have what it takes to make it in the shark world we know as the music industry!

Independent artist ‘Fk Woodz’ just dropped his new single ‘Options.’ We are loving the new music from him. The Chicago native who now resides in Atlanta, presumably one of the most notorious cities for Hip-Hop, has a team behind him in support of his music and creative ability. FK Woodz has some musical skills on the piano as well and can play by ear giving him an advantage when it comes to the production aspect of creating music.  The budding artist started out in a music group with his cousin where they recorded a couple of projects but, it was not until going solo that he truly took his career much more serious. The music industry is no joke and it is refreshing to see such hard-working artists stay productive during 1 of the hardest years of the decade. 2020 has been challenging to say the least, but luckily with positive reinforcement and staying prayed up you are able to make it through such stressful times. The beat featured on the track is a catchy snare beat produced by StardustSzn. We have a little 1 on 1 with FK Woodz below. Check out some cool insight from him and go stream the new single ‘Options’ out now!!

  1. Tell us about the vision for your song ‘Options’?

The vision for options was pretty simple from an artist standpoint. I wanted to create a record that would target the regional market that I am in. Something that is fun and catchy yet still has a message. I did not want to implement a ‘A B C ‘rhyme but more of a seasoned writer’s style with a southern cadence.

  1. You are from Chicago, now living in Atlanta. Has moving here benefited your career?

Atlanta is the mecca for entertainment. Everything is poppin down here especially the music scene. I have met tons of producers and other artists. I’ve also had radio airplay. Atlanta is just where it’s at plan and simple.

  1. How often do you drop new music?

I am always recording new material, but you can look for me to drop new music every 6 – 8 weeks consistently.

  1. What are some of your challenges you struggle with as an independent artist?

What I struggle with the most as an artist is getting that big budget lol. Making good music is always the easy part but you need that budget behind you to push it where you want to go.

  1. Who would you collab with if given the opportunity?

My top collab would have to be Drake, but I am pretty much open to link up with just about any artist of any genre.

Dummy Of The Day ‘Drew Brees’!

Saints Quarterback Drew Brees named Dummy of the Day!

With so much going on in America it was only right we give you a ‘Dummy of the Day’ post. This week has been very challenging with the protests underway in light of the senseless murder of African American citizen George Floyd. The entire world has erupted in anger, frustration, rage, sadness, depression, anxiety, pain, fatigue, and sorrow with the blatant racism still existing in the country today. George Floyd’s death has sparked opinions from celebrities and even other police officers who weighed in on the matter. 1 person that made headlines was NFL player Drew Brees. The New Orleans Saints quarterback made past comments that kneeling during the National Anthem was disrespectful. His comments were in reference to former NFL player Colin Kaepernick’s infamous stance of kneeling during the National Anthem in awareness of racism/police brutality on people of color.  Fast forward to present day and Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was arrested and now charged with 2nd degree murder for ‘kneeling’ on the neck of a unarmed, arrested black man who later died as a result. The media surrounding the case has been saddening to follow, but luckily racism is now out on the forefront and more Americans are being able to witness and admit there is white privilege, and hate towards people of color. Killer Mike has been very vocal for the Black community as well lately. He gave a moving speech with Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms present, that has catapulted him to the forefront as a voice for the people. Here is what he had to say on the matter. Keep Drew and other ignorant people who don’t know racism is alive on the Prayer List!

Georgia native ‘Grapesoda Henderson’ releases dope new Hip-hop/ R&B album and decides to make more conscious music considering police brutality and racism.

 

There are so many talented music artists hailing from Georgia. We took a trip to Carrollton and found this dope indie artist ‘Grapesoda Henderson.’ He has his own style, great melodies, and his new album is hard. With all that is going on in America I though it was only right to do a written interview with him “social distancing” style and get his thoughts for the project and more. His new album is something everyone can bop to anytime! It has a mixture of something sexy for the ladies, and some well rhymed bars for the fellas. The Trap-R&B movement is alive in well and with the success of mega artists such as Chris Brown, Torey Lanez, and Jacquees, its refreshing to see when artists mix R&B ballets and hip-hop together. There is so much bad going on in the world right now, it was a pleasure learning that this artist is aware of the attacks on black men and police brutality. It is also wonderful to know he has decided to make more conscious music for his fans. If you are looking for something fresh and alive to listen to then this project is right for you! ‘Spend the Night’ featuring Vskye is the sexy jam you play when you are chilling with bae and looking for the right ‘chill song.’ ‘Never Learn’ featuring Curtis Dro has a positive message for everyone to relate to, something poetic. Check out our Q&A, stream the album and tell us what you think below.

  1. Tell us your thoughts about the protests in America?

Due to the many years of police brutality and oppression in America towards people of color, this was the result of being ignored and treated as second class citizens. People can only take so much and have so much patience until they reach a breaking point. The riots we can do without, but you cannot control what they should or should not do.

 

  1. Has what’s been going on had an impact on your music?

The events happening now really made me become more consciously aware of what I write and say in my music.

 

  1. What is the inspiration behind the music on your new project?

The inspiration was to give fans something they could vibe and chill to. Pretty much a little insight of my life day to day.

 

  1. I love the artwork how did you come up with it?

I choose the artwork off the strength of giving people a different perception of my artistry. I showed people a part of my daily routine which is looking through the fridge.

 

  1. Describe your style in 1 word?

“Smooth”

 

  1. Who are you’re musical influences?

My influences musically are Dom Kennedy, Nipsey Hussle, Erykah Badu, and Lauryn Hill.

 

  1. Would you do an Instagram Live concert of your music?

I would be open to an IG live concert.

 

  1. If you could collab with anyone right now who would it be?

I would collab with Dom Kennedy!
