There should be a lot more stages for artists of this caliber.
Product Description
From first looking at the record, you would first think it was one act. However, once you pop it in the trusty CD player, you quickly realize that it is a meting pot of up and coming artists! From R&B and soul to hip hop and rap, it is all represented in this plethora of innovative sounds. This isn't just "jump on the train" talent either. These guys definitely have a style and vibe that is all their own.
One thing that definitely crossed my mind, when listening to this record, was "How does such good hip hop come from Oklahoma?" I know, we all stereotype hip-hop to east coast and west coast, but apparently there is solid talent lurking behind the shadows just waiting to jump out and take over. With the recent success of Bubba Sparxx and others, you might think that is what Oklahoma has to offer. Well....I just have to say that you are sadly mistaken. Artists Canis and Mr. Big Tiger come correct and unleash a new style of hip-hop and rap that is definitely a force to be reckoned with. Chozon Figgaz is also on this record. They are sure to get your head bobbin', as well. All I have to say about the hip-hop on this record is that my west coast boys had better look out. There's a whole new crop of talent marking their territory.
OK, so there's good hip-hop. What else could there be that could warrant your attention you ask? Well, how 'bout Made Entertainment's founder, Big Ric. It takes some big #%*&@ to cover a song like, "Lady." For those of you still in diapers...............that is REAL ol' school! Dating back to Lionel Richie. Now, at first I was stunned to hear it, but let me tell you........Big Ric delivers the goods. There is emotion and soul in this song that cannot be described. Definitely a song that will attract the female types. You also have solid talent like Full Swing and Double Excel dropping some smooth tracks that make you wanna hit the club and get your groove on. Personally, I think these guys are on the hit train.
