Chester Watson is a rapper from Miami Florida. This album is fairly straightforward, but highly impressive. His rap style is more complex than pop rap but less complex than conscious rap. His bars are consistent and he uses very coherent word play. Chester Watson is probably one of the best rappers I've heard all year. He may need a bit more flare to compete with the previous wave of rappers in his lane but he definitely has the skill to make a splash on them.

Today we get a new single from West coast rapper Marin Big Bags who teamed up with legendary rapper Big Wy and developing talent Azjah for the single, "In The City."


There's a lot of hands on this track as Marin Big Bags combined the talents of Black Thompson and BigWy for production on the track, while also utilizing the skills of King David to executive produce her entire project, the Big Bag Season Ep. 


"My first single is titled, In The City and it features BigWy and Azjah, both are well known talented artists who I admire. I was grateful I had the opportunity to work with them both," Marin Big Bags explained. "Azjah did the hook, I did the first verse and just spoke my truth on how I’m really finna do this as an individual and a new artist. I bodied it and Big Wy did the second verse which he bodied too. I think it’s safe to say we have a hit on our hands."


Raised in Perris, California roughly 1 hour and 15 minutes from Los Angeles, Marin Big Bags grew up where the weather is hot most of the time. 


"It doesn’t bother me because I like the heat, the temperature stays in the high 90’s., Marin Big Bags said. "My boyfriend was developing an artist at the time and it didn’t work out with his artist because the artists were being difficult. One day while I was washing clothes he overheard me rapping a song and I convinced my boyfriend that he shouldn’t be looking for any artist because I’m the one he should be paying attention to and developing."


Over the next few months expect to see Marin Big Bags developing the rollout for her EP. With a lot of promoting and marketing it in different cities across the country Marin Big Bags also plans to target Europe, Africa, Asia and Caribbean with her music. 


"With Coronavirus I can't tour, but I wanna market in those foreign territories simultaneously, not just in the U.S, that's my real goal. And of course staying in the studio, creating more content for my fans.  Overall just pushing myself as a new artist," Marin Big Bags said. "I work long and hard to improve myself everyday in my music , in my delivery, in my writing and my creativity for the fans. So I hope they enjoy it and love it because it’s really done in love for them."

The "Tha Carter IV", and initial "Tha Carter V" were a bit of a let down. Tha Carter V deluxe really should have been called Tha Carter 6 because it's a completely different album. The Carter V opened with a XXXTentacion tribute and a lot of straight forward generic bars. The deluxe edition is consistent. He has a lot of really strong bars/ideas. Every song is fantastic. A couple Drake hooks/good hooks, would have made these songs perfect, but Lil Wayne did a great job. He may be little on the outside but in some of these songs, he sounds taller than any rapper in the past 5 years. These songs are above the collective quality of most hip hop tracks in its lane. He sounds like the confident younger weezy F that people raved about with "Tha Carter 3".

Recently South Florida rapper Cameron Airborne releases the psychedelic animated visual for his new track “Past Life.” Combining elements of animation and trippy visual graphics, Cameron Airborne trips on some acid in his house while playing video games and smoking out with some stallions and the track is featuring Doobie and Caskey. 

As the graphics go crazy for the viewers, Caskey and Doobie come alive on Cam’s video game while the two rap their verses in cartoon mode via the Colton Visuals directed video.  “I produced Past Life with my homie BMagic302 – I played guitar on the instrumental he added the 808 and the drums so it has that real gritty underground sound we co-produced this one. It’s more raw underground so I got Caskey and Doobie on the track. Doobie is out in LA and we were on tour last October and we have a good relationship, he gave me a shout out and a big cameo and a co-sign so to speak.” Cameron Airborne said. “COVID stopped a lot of my shows and I tour 3-4 times a year, but it’s picking up because of the last single with Jackboy. Promoters really started to hit me up once that song hit 1 million plays, but COVID gave me time to really focus on music and to put out a full body of work.” 

Cameron Airborne broke on to the Southern Florida scene with ease after a successful run online in late May and early April with his loaded K.E. on the Track produced single titled “No Cuffing” ft Jackboy. Quickly becoming a trending video on the website Lyrical Lemonade, Cameron Airborne garnered attention from the who’s who of websites online.  “Right after the No Cuffing visual came out I booked a whole tour in November and December. I just started getting a lot more attention, it trended on Lyrical Lemonade and so I just started building more fans, started selling more merch. I have my own website CameronAirborne.com and I have a lot of different things going on and the fans are reacting.   Directed by Colton Visuals, Cameron Airborne is once again proving that his vivid imagination has no ends as he continues to create entertaining visuals for fans across the world. Combined with the management and marketing of WMR, Cameron is reaching new heights and fans with his tripped out visuals and infectiously melodic sounds.  

“The music video is insane, in the video we drop acid and Caskey and Doobie appear as cartoons with the visual. I figured out an idea to still incorporate them in the video but just have them in cartoons. I think this is going to be a really big song for me,” and excited Cameron Airborne said in a statement to the press.  

In addition to Cameron Airborne’s success in music, Cam is also stepping into the legal cannabis market with his own line of products in Oklahoma after partnering with Dreamworks Botanicals. “So right now I’ve decided to invest in the legal cannabis industry and I’m going to be coming out with my own strains in Oklahoma legally to be sold.  I’m becoming part of Dreamworks Botanicals which is a commercial licensed grow of Cannabis CBD and CBG and so we are going to be pumping that through Oklahoma.  All that came off the last track with Jackboy, it’s been going good and we’ve been piggybacking off the merch and it’s all tying into one.” Cameron Airborne said. 

“This is a chance for me to enter the legal cannabis industry, something I’ve always wanted to do, by having my own strains named after me. They are called Cameron Airborne Killa Kush or Killa OG. I know the fans are going to love it and it gives us another way to connect. Now they can smoke out and watch all my different visuals with my personal strain, I’m really excited about that."

Today YB Da Lord delivers the new music video for the Snoopy produced track titled, "Menace 2 Society."
 
The track comes out via Sign Ya Self records the same label that helped Gucci Mane early on in his career and it has earned YB Da Lord some airplay as 94.5 FM gave him some shine with Lil Bankhead.
 
 
"The visual was shot by DROROLLDATAPE, but I directed it myself," YB Da Lord said. "It’s lit, it’s has a great vision, the song is dope"
 
Raised an hour north of Atlanta just east of Lake Lanier, YB Da Lord was always influenced by the music coming out of Atlanta and the south and started music in the church.
 
 
"I’m from Gainesville, Georgia, I lived there most of my life until moving to Africa with my dad in 2000," YB Da Lord said. "I started off singing at my grandparents church and from there developed my own sound. There's not a lot of major artists that came from my city, but there's a lot of talent in Georgia. I'm bringing TRAP ROCKINROLL to the game and I'm the first one to do it!"
 
Although Gainesville, Georgia has a music scene, things had become limited so YB Da Lord took his talents to Atlanta just up the road.
 
"There used to be plenty of places for artists to perfrom up there, but niggas kept shooting that shit up so the only ones I can think is Sparkles and Grove St," he said.
 
 
But despite Coronavirus YB Da Lord is still performing shows in state at the moment and is focused on reaching his goals and dreams. 
 
"Go hard for ya dreams, listen to the ones that love you the most and pay attention to the sharks in the water!"
