With Teo on the track you will never be disappointed. With a real rap foundation and relatable content you can only feel him on what he is saying. If you been through the struggle that so many people try and overcome every day you can definitely vibe out to 10 Hunnit front man Teo. Shot by Bungy Clips, Teo brings the city out and by city I mean the entire Child's Park which consist of his many supporters and fans. It is a straight pull up and chill type situation. Being from that same side of town it is great to see the love and support he has. His following is building daily and I am most definitely co signing for this artist. He links up with familiar faces in the rap crowd in St.Pete such as Project Youngin, Co-Ke, and others. Paying homage to his Cousin Fats he is real, raw, and The Truth. While writing this review I actually had a conversation with him via Facebook and I was telling him upon seeing the shirts with Fats face and name upon them I saw this video as a tribute to him and he said "That's how I feel everyday! Really never cared for this shit, but he always believed in it so it's my way of keeping the legacy going." I have heard Teo mention his cousin in various songs and I would say Teo has been keeping his memory alive and making him proud. Check out the visuals and my rate for "The Truth by Teo of 10 Hunnit below. Also check out my write up on Teo and Project Youngin here (Pine County Finest 2: Project Youngin & Teo)

Rapper Slihmm, out of Houston, Texas raps for only 40 seconds about a female that left him. This 40 second rap rant is produced by Chance Schreiber. Check out "Sorry" below. What do you guys think? Crazy fast for no reason or Did he cover all the bases with a quick finesse. I thought it was different and dope that he was able to say all that he did in 40 seconds. That's a way to think outside the box. #StreetCredFuckinWitIt
Well I am always happy to share Zell Heff's work as it is always right up my alley. He dropped the official video for his song " Drug Abuse" and with the crazy mind of videographer J WALKAWALKA you should expect it to embody the feel of drug abuse. While I am not a supporter of drug use to a certain extent I can see how this song topic can be relevant as the apparent use of cough syrup and other widely used recreational drugs are now at the forefront of current rap and hip-hop trends. He definitely is honest and I can always count on Zell to come with a fire message. I enjoyed the visuals and thoughtfully listened to Zell's words. The downtown sights and the behind the scenes were an added bonus as it aren't too many people concerned with actual behind the scene content. I guess music videos are getting shorter or either the song but I wished it was longer, I suppose with these 15 second videos in social media we just shorten everything now. This song will definitely be added to my personal playlist. Please take a moment to check out the latest visuals from St. Petersburg artist Zell Heff below. And of course my rate for him is below as well. Enjoy! --M$C
