Props to MTV News covering events that showcase independent and upcoming artists. A little birdie told me that MTV News will be airing segments highlighting LA hip hop artists in a few weeks. Yes!
The free Fader event, which took place Tuesday, had three solid acts, Dom Kennedy, Freddie Gibbs and Casey Veggies. Gangsta Gibbs, who recently signed with Young Jeezy’s label, Corporate Thugz Entertainment, is preparing to release his next project, Baby Faced Killa. West coast MC Dom Kennedy is prepping Westside With Love 2 and is leaning toward a May release for the project. It seemed like one hell of a show. Salty I had to miss it.
Our own LA Leaker and ex-convict DJ SourMilk even had a mention in the RapFix article. Woot!
