Jams and Hustle Interview with Gowhere Hip Hop

 
Meet Jams and Hustle, two individual aspiring rappers who do their own thing and work hard to play hard. I checked in with them at the studio as they did a collab single together, and let me tell you, they are perfectionists. Not a bad thing though, right? Check out this double interview as the rappers from the one and only Chicago talk about music in their life and what their big plans are for 2011. 

Suburban roots with an Urban flavor, Jams, is a writer/rapper who still goes to high school but puts most of his focus on his music. PROPS for still managing to get those good grades! He is very talented and takes music and writing seriously. All of his hard work really pays off in his music. He's going hard by doing all he can to reach his dreams by booking shows and working on his upcoming mixtape(s). In his interview, he gives a freestyle shout out to the one and only - Gowhere Hip Hop. I'm sure you'll love his freestyle as much I did, true talent right there! This is not the last time you'll be seeing Jams around.
 
As for Hustle, he grew up in Chicago and started rapping at age 12 and 10 years later he's still doing his thing. When he's not working, he's writing. A mixtape should be coming out in March, get excited. Staying true to Chicago, he has love for his city and continues to do it all with the motivation of Chicago.
 
Check out the freestyle at the end between Jams and Hustle and keep a look out for their music! These Chicagoan's really know how to dream big! Enjoy!

Rotimi and The Loop in the studio [BTS]

 

The Loop Music Group consisting of songwriter Monster and producer Tony Balbin, got the opportunity to join forces with the talented R&B artist Rotimi to create a smooth joint at Butterfly Studios! Rotimi was extremely easy to work with in the studio and the chemistry was there right away while working on the hit single called "Used To Be". Produced by Tony and written by Monster, there were zero egos with just pure love for music as Rotimi executed perfectly seen in the video above. With an electro vibe and Rotimi's R&B vocals, the song was a fresh new experience for both camps especially the concept!

This was the first time Rotimi has worked with a writer for his music, usually doing all the writing himself - however bringing The Loop into the equation makes for an exception! Make sure you check out the behind the scenes above for an eye into their collaboration process at the studio, and an actual snippet/preview of "Used To Be" towards the end! Be on the lookout for Rotimi; too much talent to go unnoticed. Lastly there's a nice photo gallery of everyone at the studio below. Follow The Loop x Rotimi and enjoy!
