Now signed to indie label Inner Loop Records and production company EQuinox Professionals, the 22-year-old emcee is preparing for next Tuesday's release of his new, DJBooth.net-sponsored street album, The Practice.Read more here.

Party Promoter Yodit Gebreyes defended the decision to send a portion of the proceeds from last night's star-studded, sold-out benefit concert for Haiti at the 9:30 Club to Wyclef Jean's embattled organization, which has come under fire for alleged mismanagement.

Thank you Joi!

Congratulations to the Oy Boyz and G Light Films for their DMV Award for this video.



Influential hip-hop regions have understood that just because no one is looking doesn’t mean there isn’t something going on.

Houston did it. Atlanta did it. Now in a new decade of the millenium, Washington, DC is making it happen.

For more than 20 years, rap music in the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia) area has existed with very little acknowledgment from the media and from major labels. But with the constant development of artist coming from the district, it’s hard to deny the movement. And there is a picture to prove
it.
