SiSi Dior - Power

SiSi Dior is a young emcee from Chicago, Illinois. She started this year off right with the release of her track "Power". SiSi has really got something great with this one. This hard knocking, heavy beat was produced by Lpeezy from MMG. This bit of production fits absolutely perfect with SiSi Dior's high energy flow. This is definitely one for your "turn up" playlist. SiSi plans on releasing a project later this year that is sure to be filled with high energy tracks such as this one.

Duzzo Dave - Late

Duzzo Dave is arguably one of the most lyrically creative artists to ever come out of Connecticut. The Norwalk Emcee is known for his crystal smooth flow and ability to simply execute meaning in his raps in a manner unmatchable by most. As for his new single Late it is amazing, not just because of the pure ability that Duzzo possess but because of the fact that it is so relatable and easy to listen to.

Vee - One

Vee is an artist coming out of Chicago, Illinois. Although Vee hails from Chicago, he isn't your typical drill style rapper. His lyrics are incredibly deep and meaningful. This is very evident on his most recent track, One. This song is very melodic and Vee's calm delivery is complimented by this smooth beat. Vee is the type of artist that has a message in his music. In this specific track he speaks on his journey to self discovery. This inspires us to think of our own purpose in life. Vee is very talented and has a very unique but important brand of music. He is currently working a project titled see (EP) which is set to drop in spring 2015. I am excited to see his this very talented artist put out a new piece of work.

Shelton Harris - Glory Feat. Alex Wiley (Prod. Tyler Dopps)

While stumbling through random soundcloud playlists I managed to find this gem called Glory. Shelton Harris is one hell of an Emcee to put it in short. With lacerating bars Shelton is able to deliver a clear and concise message while keeping the listener on the edge of their seat. As for the production Tyler Dopps is truly something else the eerie guitar mixed with the faded organ simply combine to create a soundscape that is truly something else. This song is truly something amazing and the stunning feature from Alex Wiley just ties everything together very nicely. This duo from Seattle is one who’s work is of the next level.
