"Hollyhood" rapper "Brianna Perry" drops a video for her hot single "Marilyn Monroe". I don't think this is a "Nicki Minaj" remake, but I like it waaaaay better than "Nicki Minaj's" track called "Nicki Minaj".
The new era of swag is in full effect. "Rob Grimes", is quickly becoming on of the leaders of hip hop's next generation, making the transition from a backpack rapper to a full-fledged icon.
Known for his clever rhymes and eccentric flow, "Rob Grimes" has won many freestyle battles and has been the opening act for artist such as T.I., Mistah F.A.B., Curren$y and Kendrick Lamar.
Growing up in "San Diego", "Rob" was heavily influenced by skateboard culture. But along the way hip-hop music was always the soundtrack that he skated to, and at that age he discovered The Roots’ classic “Things Fall Apart” album, Common’s “Like Water for Chocolate” and Mos Def’s “Black on Both Sides”.
As of late, "Rob" has built a buzz in his city and on the net with the single “Ride”, for which he shot a music video showcasing his young, wavy California lifestyle. That underground sensation is the first single off "Rob’s" upcoming project, “Grimetime”. Platinum producer Chase N. Cashe is working with "Rob" on a collaboration for that new venture, as "Rob" continues to keep his fans guessing about what’s in store for “Grimetime”.
A diligent worker, "Rob" stays focused and is adamant about taking his career to the next level. "Rob's" previous projects – “Grimetime Radio Vol. 1”, “Billboard Killa Vol.1” and “Talk of Town” – are a testament to his song-making versatility. This hungry artist switches it up from club bangers to conscious rap and never loses himself in the process, which sets him apart from rest. From battle raps to hit records, "Rob" does it all.
Ummm, I'm not into "dread-heads", but "Shady Nate" is waaaaaaaay cuter, than I was thinking. I don't know what I was thinking, but I shouldn't of thought that!!!!!
2011 was a hot year for "West Oakland" rapper "Shady Nate". In July, "Nate" teamed up with "DJ Fresh" to release "Still Based On A True Story", and just three months later, on October 11th, "Nate" released his latest solo album, "Son Of The Hood". He continues to release a string of visuals from both projects, and this latest video, for the single "Getting Paid" from "Son Of The Hood", continues "Nate's" streak of gritty, street visuals.
"Getting Paid" is a tried-and-true street anthem, but one that succeeds by not sacrificing reality for fantasy."I'm out on that grind all day/ And I'm trying to get paid," sings VT on the song's chorus, before adding, "Cause, homie, I'm trying to eat."
For his part, "Nate" does much the same as he balances out the track with a combination of slick talk and darker realizations, as he follows lines like, "I let my money talk for me, it's nothing I gotta say" by rapping, "Look out for them boys, they're trying to lock us/ In them decoys, they sit and watch us."
