With so many camps emerging now it’s no wonder that Tallulah, Louisiana's own Black City Hustla
Records LLC is running in the race. Now operating out of Talluah, Lousiana Started by Joshua Davis in February of 2012, the company specializes in music and video productions, graphic designing, and artist management.  Three artist are currently with the company A -Block who is the Co- Chief Executive Officer of BCHR LLC, Tony Tone Montana, the founder of BCHR LLC, and T Dub brother of Tony Tone Montana and a real spitter out of Louisiana. Below discover what makes them all individuals but also check out the Q & A below to see how they come together as a team. Make sure to connect with them as their links are below.

-M$C


Meet A - Block:
He is a musician based out of Germany. While growing up, music has always been a part of his life and will always be in it. His rap career was set to start, when he was rapping to one of his favorite songs, and a random guy attention was caught by A-Block's skills. He told A-Block that his delivery was so great, that he should become a rapper. A-Block questioned himself and felt so confident that he started his journey to become one of the best musicians to come out of the Germany area. Around late 2007, A-Block was on Myspace listening to songs and also networking with a few artist. He ran into another musician by the name of Joshua Davis (Tony Tone Montana). Him and Tony Tone talked for hours and formed a tight friendship, which led him a position in Black City Hustla Records LLC.
A-Block is on a mission for success and will not let nothing come in his way to get it. What sets him apart from other musicians, is that he brings not only his story to the game but also tell stories that his fans can relate. The songs that he produces, not only influences others to the point where they cry, but also to where they think that they are the ones who are spitting the lyrics. He also shows his sense of humor and is not afraid to show or tell what he is feeling. He writes music to express his feelings, in a positive way, instead of committing crimes.

In conclusion, A-Block hopes that his songs can help others, whenever they are feeling down, to let them know they're not alone. He encourages everyone to be true to themselves and also if they have a dream, make them come to reality.

Meet T- Dub:
Born in Monroe, Louisiana and raised in Tallulah, Louisiana. T.Davis (T-Dub) is known to be a great musician, Even thought he was known as "Tony Tone Montana's lil bro" he set his own path to follow and started to do his thing as a successful artist with a wild party mood. His songs are mostly meant for clubs and stage performance and that's why he rules the industry now.
Meet Tony Tone Montana:
Joshua Davis is an American musician. Tony Tone Montana is named after the infamous fictional character from the movie “Scar face”, Tony Montana. Tony Tone Montana brings a unique southern style that produces a form of cocaine to the ears , that keeps his “fiends” (Fans) asking for more of his product. Even though both Tony Montana’s are different, they both shared similarities to be bosses and also to own the world.

Danger Music #THEFIELD

I saw a short film documentary on WSHH (WorldStarHipHop.com) a few weeks back entitled The Field: Chicago, a look at the relationship between the city’s rap scene and street violence epidemic. Okk!! Before I even dabble in this discussion of Chicago’s music scene, I first much say STOP whatever you are doing and check out this film. [The Field]. I have been paying close attention to Chicago rap for some time. I was first drawn there by two obvious reasons Kanye and Twista but as much as I love “Old” Kanye (Before he wasYezzus) and Twista is simply that a tongue twister of pure lyrical delights. Recent rappers and how they and the youth there tied into the violence arising from the Chicago inner city also caught my eye. After reading about the death of Chicago native rapper “Lil JOJO” and the rise of the “Almighty SO” I started to really pay attention to the music scene and the names being buzzed and generated from the area.Another one that caught my eye “Lil Mouse” is by far the best little trap rapper, that I've ever seen and even though I think it’s kind of sad how he can put together street life so good in his lyrics, his charisma is amazing and he be snappin for sure! I have also heard of Lil Durk and Lil Reese as well, but back to the documentary it shed a much needed light using a daily viewed platform like WSHH to help put a focus on the way the city is essentially in battle amongst youth and really how music and the artist that makes it affects the city. This was WSHH's directorial debut and my goodness they did a damn good job if you ask me. The “Chiraq” as they refer to it and please let me PAUSE for the cause and break down how this documentary was so beneficial. I love fashion, I love styling, I’m no master designer but I’m into that whole creativity with fabrics and textiles and being able to express those things through clothes and accessories.... Anyways, I love accessories and I saw a necklace that said “Chiraq” and I had always wondered what the hell is a “Chiraq” and I had never thought to look it up. Like the word “Thot” but that’s an entirely different story. To find out what Chiraq really was, it broke my heart to know that people are literally not even a block away from home and they are losing their life. Innocent bystanders are getting caught up in that lame game of Beef. Why we plotting on how to end the next man’s life. Don’t we all have Kid’s? Are we all not Black folk trying to make it in this crazy world? Crazy thing is we killing people we grew up with, we sending women who brought us in their homes when we had no homes to bury their child. I was not only enlightened further by the short Documentary but it gave insight in the minds of these teenagers and artist that have grown up in Chicago and have yet to fully leave. I was so sadden to see a few of the people that had been featured in the film hadn't survived long enough to see it completed but they explained that themselves in the film. I can remember a particular line from it being  "Niggas don't sell they gun, a nigga keep they gun, they know they gone need it." That line has stuck with me since viewing the film weeks ago. That was a sad and honest depiction of what is going on in a hood away from my hood but in reality its going on not just in Chicago it's going on everywhere. The only difference is Chicago death toll hit 500 in a months time versus how many murders my hood or the next hood may see in a month. I am so glad that WSHH took the time to shed light to the seriousness of the Chicago gang life and the artist that have endured their lives there. I don't want to say that " Drill Music" is the new gangsta rap but it's close enough on the spectrum for them both to be first cousins. I have featured a few videos from artist in that area and I hope if you have never heard of them that you check them out.

Reviewing Improvements

I have been getting a vast majority of artist submitting videos and mixtapes and often I am either lost for words and don't care too much for the music but I loved the visuals or the video is trash but the message was clear and I loved it. For me it's not always about what you offer visually. I see your dope visuals but can you spit? I sometimes feel as if I am letting down the emcee that might not have given me his best song but because the first one wasn't something I like I didn't respond or I don't give them the right feedback and that is my bad as I have been trying to figure out how to execute a some what "rating system" and believe me I had names for days but couldn't accurately depict what I wanted to accomplish by reviewing mixtapes and videos.It is more than having a catchy name to call what it is that I am doing when I receive music. I am aware that as artist you guys spend a lot of time perfecting the art and improving your artistry. I have done a few mixtape reviews and I am proud of the finished analysis but I am not only going to voice my opinion about the collective project but I will be giving ratings based off of the following criteria.

  1. Lyrics
  2. Instrumentals
  3. Visual
  4. Star Potential 
  5. Overall Package 
     ie: Lyrics:4 Instrumental:5 Visual:4.5 Star Potential:4.7 Overall: 5

The scale will be based from 1-5 with 5 being the highest. The more 5's the more often you may grace the Top 10 and Top 5. I am a real sucker for music I love. It is in no way or form showing favoritism to particular artist nor will the repeated entry's be because someone's individual grind to be featured. I solely make  decision on who is featured and I have had moments where I wanted to feature the same artist from last week the following week because I simply enjoyed the work behind the mixtape or the work the artist does in general. I am appreciative of every artist that continues to submit music and I encourage you if you like constructive criticism and want to know my honest opinion to continue to send in your music. You never know if I will review your album, mixtape, or video. It is often not something you will know about until I post. This helps keep its unbiased. If for any reason you don't like your critique or review please submit a request via email for it to be removed.
