New Jersey representative, P. Genz, started writing at the age of 12. His major influences include Kool G. Rap, Eric B. & Rakim, Nas, Jay-Z, Redman, and the Wu-Tang Clan. Now in his early 20’s, P. Genz continues to stay focused on his music, while maintaining his unique artistry. P.Genz isn’t looking for anything other than onward movement, to ensure that music and the beauty of expression is not lost with the struggles of the past. He has come a long way, and his path is only getting brighter. He recently recorded to my beat “Shnap Bacc”, in which he titled Bliss. I’ve also attached his other work that you can check out!

All the way from South East London, Tommy Youle, is a singer/songwriter who has been inspired by some of the greatest artists which include Michael Jackson, Bob Marley, David Bowie, Musiq Soulchild, The Beatles, and many more. He recently recorded to my beat “Shnap Bacc”, in which he titled “I Wish”. He definitely has the harmonies on lock!!! He is definitely an artist to look out for. Here is “I Wish”, as well as other projects he has been involved in:

Check out what Valian Brown aka V. Breezy did to my “Shnap Bacc” beat. He laid something really smooth to it! It is called “Games“. I hope y’all like it. Enjoy!

Look out for Iman Omari (producer/singer/songwriter)!!! He’s too dope! You can download his debut EP titled, “Energy” at IMANOMARIMUSIC.COM.

My dude Ace MarCano, all the way from New York, wrote this sick ass song to my “S h n a p  B a c c” beat! It’s mandatory that you put this on repeat because his lyrics and delivery are the perfect compliment to my beat. He definitely left a lasting impression for me and I look forward to collaborating with him more in the future. Would do you think? Post a comment and let me know!

And we’re continuing on folks! Next to rock my “Shnap Bacc” beat is an up-and-coming spitter from Chicago, Dubb Blak! Here is his version entitled, “Homecomin”:

The Legendary Slum Village and Dwele were rocking the Key Club this past Friday. You know I had to be in attendance! There was no way I was going to miss this show. I mean after all, one of my favorite albums of ALL-TIME is Fantastic Vol. 2! They had 3 opening acts, so it wasn’t too bad. I remember I went to a Hieroglyphics show, and they had like 7 opening acts (Gotdamn!). First to hit the stage was Swif, which stood for “Singing What I Feel”. Swif and his band were a good opening act, singing R&B and Blues. He also had one of his back-up singers playing the bass for him on one song. It’s always good to see a lady playing the bass guitar! Next up was local Los Angeles Artist, Jae Nice. He rocked the stage and had plenty of giveaways which included wristbands, shirts, and a snap back hat. His flow was nice over some really dope jazz-infused Hip Hop beats; some reminiscent of J Dilla and A Tribe Called Quest. I don’t remember what the 3rd act’s name was. All I remember is his band was called, The Next Episode Band. I’m mad I didn’t catch the rapper’s name because out of all the opening acts, I thought they were the dopest! If anyone from the show is reading this, please let me know who that guy was! Now, it was time for Slum Village to hit the stage! T3 and Illa J came out rocking!!! They played a lot of my favorites which included Selfish, Tainted, Get Dis Money, Won’t Do, Raise It Up, I Don’t Know, and more! I still can’t believe they did “Won’t Do”, which is my favorite Dilla song of ALL-TIME! Everyone got ultra-AMPed when that came on! Although T3 and Illa J completely rocked the stage, it saddens me that I’ll never get to see T3, Elzhi, Baatin, and Dilla on stage together. However, if I can catch another S.V. show with T3 and Illa J I’d definitely do it again. They brought high-energy! After ending their set with “Raise it up”, it was time for Dwele to hit the stage. He kind of winged his set, playing everything by ear (lol). He had this segment called, Dwele’s Pick-Up Lines. One of the pick up lines was “[Insert Woman's Name], that’s a nice shirt. Can I read it in braille?” (hilarious!) Overall, it was a great night. Everyone was entertaining and it was definitely worth $40. The whole thing lasted about 5 hours, and needless to say, I was ready to amputate my feet! I wish I had a better camera but, here are some pics and a vid of the nights festivities!

New track produced by yours truly!

This song still stands as my favorite Pac Div song. It’s a tough decision considering how much great music they make. But, Rollin’ is my sheeeeeeeit!
