Pierre Alexander – “First Day Out” Freestyle

With a troubled lifestyle in his past and with his focus on “Trumping” the competition on his way to the top of the rap game, Ohio bred rapper Pierre Alexander is up front about his ability to maneuver in the rap game.

“I’m already bossed up, I make my own moves, I’m really for real, everything I’m rapping, I ain’t being lyrical, this is really my life and what I’ve lived.”Pierre Alexander explained. “My music is about understanding the life of me. I’m coming out with documentaries and my chapters to let them know the life of me and what’s really going on.”

With a steady focus on recording music full time Pierre Alexander is fortunate enough to have several successful business ventures that allow him to dedicate all his time to music.

“Every week I’m doing 5 songs and I’m doing 2 videos, I got unlimited money so that ain’t the problem,” Pierre Alexander said. “I want to do rap because I’m already retired from rap. I ain’t in the streets no more, so I can just give them knowledge of what I’m doing”

With emphasis on helping his whole crew get to the next level, Pierre Alexander’s music reflects the quality of loyalty across the board after his own biological brother snitched on him and was working with the DEA.

“It ain’t really an image or something we are trying to portray with this music, all we believe in is loyalty, everyone runs together,” Pierre Alexander explained. “Shit I just did a two year bid for being caught with over a million dollars and once Trump won the White House I knew that I could Trump the rap game.”

Kydd Jones ft Kirko Bangz – “Who R U”

Central Texas artist and acclaimed producer Kydd Jones had a busy SXSW this year to say the least. With performances nearly every day this past week, Kydd Jones was front and center performing hits from his catalog for the fans at the annual two-week music, art and technology festival.

But this fast rising talent isn’t new to big stages as Kydd Jones’ resume reads long with past appearances at the Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival, The Art of Rap Tour with Ice T and the Red Bull Sound Select stage. Kydd Jones is accustomed to the bright lights and big crowds but has remained humble producing material for countless local artists in Texas’ underground scene.

For his next single the young Texas upstart is blessing his fans with a new song dubbed, “W R U” (Who Are You?). Featuring Houston, Texas crooner Kirko Bangz, the guys trade verses about how their lives have changed over time while they’ve found success in the industry. In Kirko’s verse he talks about living the good life riding around in nice cars with Meek Mill, the BET Awards and enjoying Miami, but “W R U” is for anyone steadfast in their goals willing to fight past all their obstacles.

Fans of this song can find it on Spotify, Bandcamp and iTunes while Jones’ self produced single “Dripped Up” will also get the visual treatment in the coming weeks.

Mr. Chicken da Gineral – “Late Night”

In a industry full of copy cat rappers and unoriginal ideas, a new rapper with a charisma all his own is emerging. Donning a street earned named like no other, New Jersey rapper Mr. Chicken da Gineral has a name all to his own that differentiates him from every other rapper out.

But, aside from his standout name, he is far from a gimmick – the music is really there on his upcoming project Pollo Talk. With a solid understanding of the rap game, first as a fan and now as a creator, Mr. Chicken da Gineral grew up in a family that embraced rap and that regularly played Hip-Hop around the house.

“To tell the truth, music has always played a major part in my life and my parents life. My Pops thought he was DMX and my mom listened to Mary J. Blige. We used to have little family freestyles until I became older and wanted to take my music in my own hands, so I created the Chicken Nation movement,” Mr Chicken da Gineral said.

To kick things off for his project Pollo Talk, Mr. Chicken is releasing his video, “Late Night”.

“This single shows how I raised up against the hate to keep the positive vibes and good people around me. Of course you gotta stay on point with the fashion, but this explains how important backwoods are,” Mr Chicken da Gineral said jokingly.

The track is produced Augie and the video is directed by JhaJha from Digital Demand Films, prepping fans for the Chicken Nation Tour set to make its way around the country this Summer.

“Over the next few months I’ll be put together a ChickenNation Tour and shooting videos off the album. I keep trying to get myself and my music more and more known basically by pushing the album 120%.” he added.
