Where I wanna be in 10 years?Hope to one day do a song with all these artists I grew up listening to; they helped me become the person I am today.

Talking about the current hip-hop scene, Sololex said, “It is a hard truth, that fans of hip hop & rap music often have a tendency to idolize their heroes. They will often remember the small things that their favorite artists did, to show respect to their fans, like sending a thoughtful text or making an effort to speak to a fan when they’re in a public place. Sometimes, this can lead to fans being slighted by their favorite artist. For example, when K-pop’s idol rapper PSY, was in the United States, he was met with a lot of criticism, for only speaking to white people & ignoring his fans of color.”

Then talking about his favorite artists, he said, “In the world of hip hop, there’s a lot of great rappers, but very few who can claim to be the absolute best. That title is usually reserved for a small group of artists, who have achieved greatness in the industry; earning respect from both fans & critics alike. One of the most famous of these rappers, is the legendary Kendrick Lamar, who has become one of the most successful rappers in the game; selling millions of [albums] & earning countless awards & accolades in the process.”

Sololex has a great determination for what he wants & we wish him the very best in his future endeavors.

Melodic rap is a genre that combines elements of rap, pop & other genres, to create something fresh & exciting. It is characterized by fast-paced songs with complex rhyme schemes & lots of hooks. It has been growing in popularity globally, especially in Canada & the US, where big acts like Post Malone, Juice WRLD & 21 Savage have become superstars.

Still digesting the news of the new album, from the man who single-handedly brought the art form of rap music back from the dead, the world is still trying to figure out exactly what MGE is all about. Is he a rock star rapper, a pop rapper, a country rapper, or something else entirely? The truth is, MGE is all of those things & more. He’s a master of melodic rap with the skills to match.

Talking about his recent work, he said, “You all are probably wondering what this project is all about. Maybe you’re even a little skeptical. I can understand those feelings. After all, I’ve been writing rap music for years. Give it some time; the genius will dawn on you!”

Responding to a question about his childhood, he said, “When I was younger, I always wanted to be a writer. I spent hours, even days, sitting in cafés, staring out of the window, imagining what it would be like to be a famous writer. I imagined receiving letters from fans, who would tell me how much they loved my work. I imagined being able to write without censorship, without fear of being deemed crazy or offensive.”

My vision: I believe in being punctual & efficient

Inspiration artists: Lil Kim, Foxy Brown, Eve, Trina, Nicki, MC Lyte, Queen Latifah, & Missy

Where I wanna be in 10 years?”I want to be known not only locally & in the states, but also to have shows all over the globe. I want to have an estate. My goals are to have clothing, my own alcohol, & just a billion-dollar brand”.

For years, we’ve been waiting for someone to bring that DC sound to hip hop. Someone who’s fresh & not afraid to use their voice to speak truth to power. Enter Big Gilly, she’s the real deal.When we first heard Big Gilly’s Music, we felt like we were listening to a DC rapper that we’d heard about, but never actually seen. We’ve been a fan ever since. Over the past few months, we witnessed the rapper transform into a performer. She’s taken risks, she’s changed her style, & she’s delivered an incredible performance.

“Go-Go music has been the heart of the DMV for a while. From Chuck Brown to Sugar Bear to EU to RE to the bouncebeat with TCB, BYB and JYB then TOB & Reaction. We have had a wave of great music. That’s the reason a lot of my songs are heavily Go-Go influenced. I want my bars and gogo to coexist and make the most beautiful harmonies. The world is going to know it’s DC all up & through me. Go-Go music became my heartbeat & hip hop is definitely the blood pumping into my veins”, she said.

Talking about her idol Nicki Minaj, she said, “The first time I heard Nicki, was on a Come up dvd. She was raw & had several metaphors. Her punchlines hit every time. She was the pretty girl, who could hold her own, in a male dominated industry. Her fans are unmatched. I want the same thing; for me to have fans that are that unparalleled & unwavering. Kim had the sexy female rapper down, Missy the creativity, Trina that down south sexual edge, Salt N Pepa had lyrics & sex appeal, Queen Latifah & MC Lyte lyrical queens, Foxy was hardcore & hit different her tone was different. I just wanna be on the Mount Rushmore of the greatest”
