Ohio Artist Spilly 6200 releases ‘SPILLIN’ RAKZ’ EP with RAKZ FIFTH

Stream/ download ‘SPILLIN’ RAKZ’ by Spilly 6200: https://album.link/us/i/1594116944

Spilly 6200 is one of Ohio’s most promising rappers and for his first full length project he enlisted mega producer RAKZ FIFTH to executive produce it. ‘SPILLIN’ RAKZ’, which plays homage to both of their names, clocks in at a little over 20 minutes and finds Spilly in his most authentic state. 

With RAKZ FIFTH providing the production playground, Spilly 6200 effortlessly makes each track his own with a blend of his fast paced flow and clever wordplay. From the introduction to the last song on ‘SPILLIN’ RAKZ’, the 6200 rapper sticks to what he knows — money, the hustle, and the streets. “I just want them to know it’s authentic across the board,” he explains about the project. “This is not a whole tape talking about and glorifying shit I ain’t lived or going through,” he continues. Tracks like “Make it Back” and “Skam Wrong” are proof of this as he grabs assistance from artists like Seezyn and Midwest Milly for verses. Other features come from 6200 Rob Da Builderr and RAKS FIFTH who comes out of the producer side to drop some bars on the stand out track “Blitz”. 

While this is the first full length project from Spilly 6200, the young rapper has been making music for quite some time now and has plans to keep the momentum going. Spilly 6200 is preparing to release some new features including one with YNJAY, visuals, performances and even another project by the first quarter of 2022.

FDW BayBay & Rich Homie Quan release “In My Bag” visual & audio

Stream/ download “In My Bag” by FDW BayBay & Rich Homie Quan: https://song.link/i/1596700759

Growing up, FDW BayBay would live between Cincinnati, Ohio and Hickory, North Carolina with both cities becoming an anchor for him starting his rap career. Like most artists, his songs would focus on the struggles he faced while coming up in the streets, but the rapper never let his circumstances get the best of him. Instead, he’s forged his own lane in the industry while working alongside some heavy hitters such as Gunna, Moneybag Yo, Blac Youngsta, NoCap  and Rich Homie Quan to name a few. 

FDW BayBay, whose birth name is Adonis Miguel Rutherford, has been rapping for roughly twelve years but began to take the craft more seriously in the past six years. In that time, he’s built a discography of music that combines the melodic, trap-infused records his fans have grown to love with up-tempo cuts like that of “No Cappin” featuring Gunna. It’s the stories of his fast lifestyle that has his audience intrigued, allowing the young rapper to boast millions of listens across all streaming platforms. 

Following his single “Reversible” with NoCap, FDW BayBay is keeping his fans laced with his latest release “In My Bag” with Rich Homie Quan which released December 3rd produced by Al Geno. When asked about the collaboration, FDW BayBay states, “The song is more about being in my bag like I was slacking but I had to get back to myself now I’m up we winning and everybody saying we acting different, but we’re not acting different, we’re just moving different, you can’t move the same when you’re up we don’t have the same mindset and little money we once had, we’re on a bigger scale. And I decided to run with Quan because he’s a legend in the game always wanted to link with him. Also, me or Quan haven’t dropped in a while so why not come out together with a banger I met him and it was perfect timing”

The official music video for “In My Bag” was filmed by GT Films in Atlanta, GA.

Stream/ download “Goodfella” by Lou Vellvito & Bigga Rankin: https://song.link/us/i/1589131971

St. Louis artist Lou Vellvito just released his latest video installment for “Goodfella” from his new project ‘Weigh Wit Wurdz’. The song is produced by his longterm producer GameRunnaz and is the second song on the project. The official music video was filmed by Boomin Visuals throughout various parts of Atlanta and St. Louis. 

Although Lou Vellvito took a minor hiatus to focus on building his catalog and rebranding his image, he is no rookie to the game. Formerly known as Luey V, Lou Vellvito built strong relationships with Hip Hop heavyweights Bishop of ATL Top 20 and Bigga Rankin dating back to over 15 years ago. Fast forward to today, Bigga Rankin is 100% behind Lou Vellvito’s career.

When asked about the inspiration behind the record and visual, Lou Vellvito states, “It’s based on the film ‘Goodfellas’ but I’m also speaking on an actual street in St. Louis also this video captures the suit wearing mobster look which is a first for me just selling the title of the song and my name Lou Vellvito is a mobster type name so it goes hand in hand”.

Stream/ download “No One” by Lil Mikey TMB: 

East Oakland artist Lil Mikey TMB just released his first single of 2021 titled “No One” produced by his longtime music producer KC Da Beatmonster. The visual was filmed in Miami directed by Vick Supreme and features a cameo by Young Money’s Gudda Gudda. When asked about the inspiration behind the record, Lil Mikey TMB states that he misses the fun in music and wanted to create something outside of the popularized depressed sound in Hip Hop.

“The song just came from me living my normal day to day life I was riding around smoking looking at all my diamonds just thinking like damn I’m the shit and that I know there’s a lot of jealousy and envy in the air so I need to be ready that’s why on the song u hear me saying “diamonds on me “I’m not trusting “No One” stick on me and I’m upping my gun competing with myself I’m not seeing “No One” so I just wanted to create a cocky song I can feel good and pop my shit to and motivate the trap cause everybody sound depressed now” (Lil Mikey TMB)

St. Louis Artist Rezz Releases ‘Buddah’ debut album featuring 42 Dugg, CHASETHEMONEY, & Turn Me Up Josh

Stream/ download ‘Buddah’ by Rezz: https://album.link/i/1584019488

When it comes to creating a cohesive project, there are a few components that need to be taken into consideration — production, sequencing, style, and vocal delivery. For immersive St. Louis rapper Rezz, he’s been able to establish all four on his newest EP entitled Buddah. The title comes from a childhood nickname given to him by his late grandfather and is an indication as to what to expect from the full-length project. 

On the Buddah EP, Rezz finds his stride in expressing the ins and outs of his hustler lifestyle that comes equipped with fast spending and even faster decision making. On tracks like “Voicemail”, he dispels his own personal experience when it comes to choosing between his personal life and chasing a check. The braggadocious “Swerve”, which features 42 Dugg, acts as the single for the EP with him wrapping up the 10-track project with ”30 for 30” featuring production by 300hz and Zero.

The young rapper worked alongside a number of talented producers like ROCKTEE, CHASETHEMONEY, and Drellonthetrack and worked closely with late engineer Turn Me Up Josh. During their time knowing each other, Rezz was able to witness the young engineer truly perfect his sound and see the passion he had for it. He was the first to come to mind to engineer the Buddah EP but passed away during the middle of the recording process. He was able to provide the ideal template to help the project materialize. 

Rezz truly takes the spotlight as his long hours in the studio proved to pay off. He impressively takes full control of handling the engineering and recording of the project, even recording some tracks in his bedroom. The intimate recollection of his day-to-day life is laced with vibrant production and hard-hitting bars that are sure to have you run it back.
