EDITOR’S NOTES
Crunkatlanta Magazine 2015
Who is Crunkatlanta? I am Eric aka Crunkatlanta & Promotewho.com - The Internet Promoter, the one that is in love with Hip Hop. Follow me on Twitter @crunkatlantaMag . Born and raised in Detroit, MI. Yep, I'm from Seven Mile Rd and GreenfieldWhuddup Doe!! My first inspiration to get involved in the industry was when I found out that nobody heard of any Detroit rappers outside of Detroit ( Michigan). My first gig was with a friend (“T”) that I assisted with promoting Cam’ron back when he was a lil chunky in 1997. From there I found what my purpose was supposed to be. My all time fantasy career was to become a quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons. Once that dream was cut short from not getting the response back from -tryouts and competition over the years. I became hooked on music and brand marketing. http://www.crunkatlanta.com ( Promo page )

LITTLE WARRIOR
LITTLE WARRIOR Singer-songwriter Little Warrior - who recently made her Heaven Noise debut with her single "How Do I Be Strong" - is back with another collaborative track between her & producer Ryan Short. "So Far Away" continues where her previous single left off but there is an emerging confidence in these songs about heartbreak. While the lyrics are steeped in pain and loss, the glimmering music behind them suggests that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. "So Far Away" and "How Do I Be Strong" are just stand-alone singles for now but they make a strong case for a full-length project and we look forward to letting you know as soon as one is on the horizon.

SF/PDX artist Dubble-OO SpaceAge returns to forefront with his new album, Next Level, after a brief hiatus from recording following the death of his musical mentor The Jacka. Available on LiveWire Records and distributed by Empire, Dubble-OO SpaceAge drops off 13 new joints for his fans who have been patiently waiting to hear from him. Tapping the talents of J-Stalin, Husalah, and Mikey Vegaz - DubbleOO keeps guest appearances to a minimum on this new project and it's obvious he's had a lot on his chest to get off. Leading off the album with "M.I.P. (Mob In Peace) is an introspective tribute to The Jacka over spacy synth work and laid back drumwork, setting the tone perfectly for the rest of the project. Dubble-OO SpaceAge possess the rawness and hustle of an underground rapper, smooth game of an East Oakland pimp, but also has the ear for production that can give his music a more commercial appeal; packed with hard hitting drums and huge 808's. A tribute to the Thizz Nation and OG's of the Bay area scene, Next Level also adds new trap elements to keep everything updated to a 2016 sound. It's been a minute since we've heard from Dubble-OO SpaceAge and we have a lot to catch up on. Be sure to check out the official video for Nas No Speed Limit, and Purchase/Stream Dubble-OO SpaceAge's new album Next Level below.

Fresh off returning from a 7 state tour with fellow California emcee Locksmith, J.Lately is back with the release of his new music video for "One Time". The song is off The Good Panda EP, which was released earlier this year, and includes features from Blu, Khyenci Tienne, Beejus, and more. It is produced by O.O.P.S., who also produced half of the The Good Panda EP. The LerrAni directed visual is a lighthearted "day-in-the-life" depiction of a get together between Lately and a female friend that doesn't go exactly as planned, however, he manages to salvage some fun out of the situation none the less.

CRUNKATLANTA MAGAZINE Detroit artist Ty Farris link ups with Kid Vishis for "Feel Nothing," the first official release from the upcoming collaborative album Room39, produced entirely by Portland producer Trox (50 Cent, Ab-Soul). First discovered by the late, great Proof, of D12, after battling his way through the streets of the D, Ty Farris has long been known as a hidden gem of the Detroit scene, but with his new album locked and loaded the sky's the limit for Ty's future. Room39 features former Little Brother member Big Pooh, Detroit legend/Slaughterhouse member Royce Da 5'9, and more. Shot and directed by FrostIsRad, "Feel Nothing" is raw and gritty with Farris and Kid Vishis trading verse over the hard hitting production. Mark your calendars for Room39, as Ty's unique sound and introspective storytelling mixed with Trox's outstanding production should make for a match made in hip hop heaven.

CRUNKATLANTA MAGAZINE ABOUT JT SOUL: Gianni Rivera better, known as his stage name JT Soul, is a Montreal based rap/RnB artist. When it comes to JT's vibe, it's definitely one of a kind. His understanding of today's modern sound as well as how the industry works at his young age of 17 is one of his strongest points. The synergy between him and his beat producer, Jei Bandit, makes them a force to be reckoned with, working together continuously. His versatility and ability to go from autotuned R&B to heavy rap with ease is what makes JT a great artist. Gianni Rivera was born May 12th, 1999, and grew up in the St. Leonard borough of Montreal. His artist name comes from the street, “JeanTalon”, which he grew up on. JT was first introduced to music in high school, where he met Tris Thomas, a fellow rapper. They started the rap group “Unofficial Sovereign” at a young age and took off from there. Now, fresh out of high school, JT Soul has sign to ODDIO Entertainment, alongside his personal beatmaker, Jei Bandit, and is prepping to release his debut EP.
ABOUT V: V, formerly known as Mac Vybz, is essentially a HipHop/R&B artist but is exceedingly versatile when it comes to making music. Always including his own unique and memorable sound into his work, V has become one of Montreal’s top tier artists and growing quickly to become one of Canada’s dopest. In his past years as Mac Vybz, he’s gained a lot of W’s under his belt, with multiple mixtapes, singles, contests won and acknowledgement from major artists like Krayzie Bone & Young Chop. Most recently, before going on a quick hiatus, he released his debut album, #Graduation on iTunes, which generated a lot of attention, from the U.S. to New Zealand. Now, after improving his sound and studying the art for a while, he’s making his 2016 comeback as V under Oddio, ready to kill it.
