As 2016 comes to an end Big Chris is gearing up for the release of his first studio Album 'Bad Timing' in 2017. In the meantime be sure to check out his take on an Xmas Song here!





One thing that’s for sure is that rising hiphop artist, Ace the General, has a way with words!  His new song “Ace GOD - Non Gmo” is a testament to that.  His vibe is extra wavy!  The song has that cool new age conscious trap feel to it.  While listening to “Ace GOD - Non Gmo” you will see through the eyes of a young man who is celebrating the good life over a vicious baseline and hi-hat influenced beat. 



Ace the General says, “My feeling about “Ace GOD - Non Gmo” is to hit you with some new inspiration, talking about abundant riches and the path to enlightenment”.  With the help of his creative writing and unique sound Ace displays that he has the power to connect with listeners in a very fun way!

What hits you right away with LaLa's new album "JazZy LaLa" is everything! The overall theme of the project is definitely smooth and flows thoughout. All the instruments sound so amazing. The marriage of jazz, hiphop, and poetry is very strong here. LaLa's writing and delivery is refreshing as he effortlessly flips from rapping and singing. 

The content that flows out of LaLa's mind are creative, original and very personal. On gem "Forever" he relives the endlessness of college life and wonders if he would've done it all over again or not. "SOS" speaks on the state of the artists of today and what sets him apart from the pack. "I Need Dollahs" sounds like a hiphop remix of a ragtime story about the struggle to elevate. He switches it up on new age banger, "Blood On The Leaves" where he recalls lost love. 




Shawn Ayala, aka LaLa, is a 26 year old multi-genre rapper, vocalist, song-writer and musician. His unique style of combining different worlds of music together to create a new, intriguing sound has been attracting local and national interest as he continues to push the limit of what we currently refer to as "genres."
After being noticed from one of his songs he uploaded to youtube in 2009, LaLa started working under Dahn Jackson's management. He quickly rose up the performance latter after his first all-age show at a small local restaurant. With over 60+ performances ranging from local downtown restaurants to opening up for major mainstream artists, LaLa takes the most pride in his headlining shows, in which is HIS shows, HIS fans. Some major artists LaLa has performed with are; Messy Marv, Jeremiah, Bobby Brackins, Too Short, and Curren$y.
After his 3rd mixtape "LaLa & The Homies" caught some buzz in 2014, LaLa signed his first distribution deal and is currently signed with Worldwide Music Group/Universal Music Group Distribution. LaLa currently has 4 singles available on Itunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal and 200+ online retailers.
LaLa's musical influences are Lil Wayne, Kayne West, Kendrick Lamar, Big Sean, J. Cole, Tupac, Mac Dre, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dog just to name a few hip-hop artists. Other musical influences include Michael Jackson, Chris Brown, The Temptations, Frank Sinatra, Jack Johnson & J. Boog.
As the industry twists and turns, LaLa strives to revive the love and art of music, one way or another. 





Fresh off the success of his mixtape "I Am Ryan Cole", he is back with an official trap anthem titled "Flex"! The song has been selected as the USA Blog Network's 'Song of the Week'. Beatmaker, Bricks On Da Beat produces the perfect piano and bass influenced track for Ryan Cole to shine on. With its dope lyrical content, Ryan's charismatic delivery, and professional sound, I could easily hear "Flex" in DJ rotation alongside other current hitters like OT Genesis, Savage 21, and Migos. 

 What really stood out to me is Ryan stayed true to who he is, not what the industry wants to hear. You usually hear alot of drug talk these days, where as he admits not touching the work and not poppin pills. Instead he raps about every young man's dream: having fun, staying fly, and fucking every pretty chic in sight! Ryan says,"FLEX is the new movement! It's more than a song... it's a lifestyle!" Look out for the visuals to the song coming very soon.

MZM's new album "Downpour" is a breath fresh air. 13-tracks rains down creative lyricism and thought provoking concepts upon you. MZM opens his mind and lets you in on masterpieces like "Wrong Era", that covers the ills of today's society. In his battle rap stance, he snarls hot-fire punchlines on "Dylan"! "Love Is" not what you think it is. This an almost 12 minute long, twisted, toxic, love story that is re-told as hilarious as possible!   

Stand out tracks include the single titled, "Politricks ft. Emilio Rojas and Ras Kass".
"Politricks" gives them a good platform to voice their outlooks on everything from this crazy political race, the military industrial complex, and the racist, sexist, idiot Donald Trump.  MZM goes as far as saying Donald's moms should've swallowed him lol. What an awesome notion!

For a debut album MZM has hit the ground running. This is an amazing body of work that will take you back to hiphop's golden era of rap! Download the full album, "Downpour" on bandcamp and follow MZM's growing movement below.
