Presidential Gang is a group of talented rappers who ask the tough questions. “What You Here For” is a answer this group of emcees is looking for. This has a very slow beat and each guy brings his own voice to the track, but all in all the song has a cohesive sound. Then they come back together for a more upbeat one with “Ready 2 Go.” Well it’s not that much more hype than the last. Presidential Gang definitely has an overall chill demeanor. With “I Can’t Leave Da Streetz” the guys come with enticing lyrics that make you listen deep. If you’re a fan of chill, street hip hop then you have to check out Presidential Gang today.

BigBomb is a Californian doing his thing in Texas. “Actionz Speak Loudr than Wordz” sounds more like a skit than a song. It’s a bit confusing…Then you have “Honey Bluntz n a Pillz.” This one is about partying but again, sounds more like a conversation than anything else. Then after a minute the track kicks in and you finally get to hear what BigBomb is all about and it’s a good time. His fast delivery can’t be touched in this one. Then he slows it down with “DrunkDankoholic.” He definitely has coined his own term, and then with “U Blew It” he has this great piano intro that is unexpected but cool. Then that conversational style comes in. Last up is “Want 2.” This one probably fights “Honey” as the best of the bunch. If you like hip hop that’s a little quirky, check out BigBomb now.

Buhd is an emcee who comes at you hard and delivers. “Off Da Corner” comes out the gates like a whirlwind force. Buhd really takes control of the situation as soon as he can. “Come Up Off It” starts and ends before you get a chance to notice, but “Grind Hard” is definitely a show stopper. Its pace is great and will allow for even the noobs of hip hop to follow along. The hype comes with “Wat’s Happening” and then things get cool with “Just Landed.” I like the hint of island intertwined with Spanish in “Ya Yo” in the hook and chorus. Simplicity is what you get with “Made It.” It’s very easy to learn since the hook is quick and to the point. So if you like your hip hop really abrasive and raw, check out Buhd.

Mr. 4 Da Low’s “Jacksonville’s Very Own” mixtape in a force to be reckoned with. “Respect It” demands attention as it comes out the gate with hitting hard. That seems to be the case for the remainder of the mixtape. There is just never a dull moment. You have the hype of “Show Must Go On,” “Like Dat” has a great bounce to it and “Grind” has the best lines about no regrets and such. You have to expect something show stopping with “Party of the Century.” This song doesn’t really need to disappoint. Neither does “Eyes on Da Prize.” With 19 tracks on this joint, there is definitely something for someone. So check out “Jacksonville’s Very Own” by Mr. 4 Da Low today.

Keela kee is a emcee doing great things. “History” I think really sets the tone for what Keela kee is capable of and what she’s all about. The best part about “Buzzed” is that it flows the way that kind of imitates when you are indeed buzzed. It’s easygoing and just right. She comes hard with “City On Lock” and really steps up her game in terms of attitude in the delivery. The same can be said of “Ride Big Ride Tall.” It is definitely a top notch one to listen to due to the beat of it and the way the hook comes strong. One song that everyone can enjoy and relate to is “Get That Money,” because who isn’t all about that. Keela kee comes harder than Lil Mama but hasn’t reached the level of the likes of someone like Da Brat but with a few more years under her belt, she’ll be there. You can hear the drive in her rhymes that are going to get her to her final destination no matter what. (https://www.reverbnation.com/keelakee)
Bodega Bowie reps Hot-Lanta well with his take on the hip hop realm. “Truth Juice” is not only a song that every chill hip hop fan needs in their life, but also something that needs to be a reality. Imagine if there was such a thing. D. Sims helped produce “Scroll” and it starts out sounding like a metropolitan hotel lounge bar. Then Bodega Bowie’s rhymes come in and it takes on a new persona. He then gets some help from Beezy Latta on “ShowTime” and together they create a really suave track. Speaking of suave, “Growing Closer” sounds like something Ashanti would be a part of back in the day when she was big in the game. It has that female counterpart on top of the rhymes and together they produce a well rounded piece of work. If you like hip hop that’s a little street but definitely well thought out, check out Bodega Bowie today. (https://soundcloud.com/bodegabowie)
