JORGE THA PROMOTER

“Where Are The Hip Hop Hero’s” I’m not here to count any of the Hip Hop artist out by asking where are the hero’s. There was just a time when Hip Hop was banging with love and unity. Hip Hop was like strength to many. The money came automatically so it wasn’t always about the money it was more about raising awareness and overcoming obstacles.

I have several favorites now don’t get me wrong, but where is the fire and who’s truly trying to catch a flame. What about PAC saying “If we all” he didn’t say “I’m” he said we. Songs were crying and we felt it, because it was about us.

I just want to take you back a little. In 1988 Ice T made a song to the movie and soundtrack “Colors” to raise awareness on the uprising of gang violence. “Freedom of Speech” was hard, your mind had to be mature to even jam that song. Ice went off. “You have the right to remain silent, f%&k that right” had people bucking the police. Nwa right behind him with f%&k the police.

Then here comes YoYo getting nothing but respect, she wasn’t giving up her cookies which raised awareness on celibacy in a collaboration with Ice Cube.

And kept pushing with raising awareness on violence with these hot lyrics “ Black on Black crime equals our time “ it wasn’t me, or I, it was our.

Rakim probably changed a stick up kid to wanting a 9 to 5 job. So how do we catch that flame to get a soothing fire burning.

Its not about f%&k the police its about how can we get it back to saying, I don’t wanna be a stick up kid I want a 9 to 5. The prison rates and death tolls are high among our young men, teen pregnancy is high. How do we fix this in love and peace. Where is Mr. And Ms. Hip Hop Your answers? Send to email article A64....that’s just a thought lol Sincerely, Pamela Fusilier

LIL BOSS ABN

Toni Unique To start with a few of my accomplishments; I was in three charity fashion shows, My very first one was with Nae’s Collection for Vintage Fashion Fest 2011; then there was the fashion show by Raw 2012 for Karin Kourture as well as one for Tiffany’s Touch for Lavo Collection in Fashion for Faith Fashion Show in 2013 after that show a few days later I was one of the models who got to appear on Great Day Houston with Debrah Duncan for Tiffany’s Touch rocking Lavo Collection. I was also blessed to be apart of the Houston Image Hair Show at a booth for Basic Hair products in the same year. I worked a promo event for Zeno’s Cigars at The Smoke Ring in SugarLand Tx in 2011 that was a fun and exciting experience. In the year of 2012 I was featured in a music video working with a great group of people the videographer Jason Johnston was great you can find the video on youtube the songs name is Can’t Leave You Alone by three local Houston artist Reb, Marty and Dex. On an exciting note I was recently chosen to be one of the models for Virtuous Cosmetics this was a awesome blessing and I will be working with a great photographer with BeYoutiful Concepts Photography this month to be exact!

The Legendary Sexxx Fiends Ray Fields and Himel Johnson Jr better known to the world as DJ Rated X and Tiny T were born in Opelousas, Louisiana and raised in greater Houston, Texas. The group mates can remember the 80’s as being one of the most influential time periods for them musically. When asked what they can recall the most from that era, they had this to say “We grew up listening to Run DMC, Whodini and the Ghetto Boyz. During that period, that’s what was hot. It was inspirational to us especially with Ghetto Boys being where we are from and making their way like they did”. Although in their musical pursuit the guys found themselves going back and forth about exactly what their plan was, they credit seeing Run DMC live in concert for helping them narrow down their focus. “We saw Run DMC live in concert for the first time at Astro World and it changed our live. We were back and forth a lot, we didn’t really know how to organize this. Watching the performance, the lyrics they spit, the outfits they wore, from the Adidas track suits all the way down to the Adidas shoes. It inspired us to want to be just as jaw dropping as they were. We wanted the girls to scream just as loud for us. We wanted the fans to almost idolize us. We wanted our name in lights, just like RUN DMC”

Freaks of the Industry As the duo continued, to build they began to gain notoriety as the Houston 2 Live Crew with their sexually charged lyrics and live shows. To promote safe sex and a healthy lifestyle, the guys used to give out condoms and other trinkets at their live performances.

This tactic was definitely a means to have fun with their fans, but it also wound up being one of the most brilliant marketing plans implemented in brand promotion for African American musical acts in the early 90’s. Groups like TLC, R. Kelly & Public Announcement and more can be seen using condoms as a means to market themselves and promote safe sex. Though this memorable promotional effort was perfected by them with their corporate backing, Sexxx Fiends were the very first to do it. Not to be confused with 2 Live Crew and their brash sexual objectification of women, Sexxx Fiend is actually a group that encourages women and men alike to enjoy one another, but to be safe. The group is dedicated to bringing awareness of the affects that unsafe sex and abuse have on the urban community. When you hear the name it can either intrigue you or turn you off, which was the duo’s plan, because either way, they have your attention. In having such an uncensored name, the draw that they get aids them in their effort to bringing awareness to their personal cause. “Music, Money &Ménage (Family). We want the world to feel our music so that money can be made to feed our families. Seeing the fans gravitate to what we create motivates us. Knowing the profit in which we gain pushes us. But those who are the biggest part of our lives is the MAIN reason why we grind. And nothing is possible without God. He gave us this gift, the drive, the grind. So its our duty to use it for the greater.” They said when asked what pushes them.

When the guys speak about their cause, one can see that community means a lot to the two. Being that they came up in an era where there was a flood in drugs, gang violence and a spike in sexually transmitted disease fatalities it’s evident that they want to help make a change. When asked what they want the world to remember about their brand, they said “When its all over and done, we want people to say, “These guys were unique artist who not only presented great, real life music.

But focused on true, real life issues. We want to leave a legacy so great, that they have no choice but to remember our names and recognize what we represented. See, our music is more than just about sex, its about safe sex, the ups & downs of relationships, respecting one another and beyond. Yes, there are some hardcore things we spit about, but we spit about it because we spit what people are afraid to speak about. That alone makes us unique. And decades from now, we want the entire world to know that we’re more than just artist, we’re activist in our own right.” With the type of dedication and community commitment these fellas have, they will definitely go down in history as community leaders the way they hope to.

CHUCKY THE KILLA

A teenager with a dream that grew up to be a MAN with a purpose. I grew up not listening to much music, but fell in love with it in my teenage years and decided to pursue it as a dream. I stayed dedicated, but met with my fair share of obstacles along the way.

I put out CD after CD on my way to release an actual album and in 2010 finally accomplished that goal with the release of “Already: The First”, after 5 longs years of grueling effort. Along the way I made friends, made fans, made money and made enemies. Over the years I matures as an artists, but more so as an individual. In late 2010, after re-establishing my spirituality, I decided to make life changing decisions to project my self and my music in a more positive direction and trying to distance myself from the stereotypical, run-of-themill Rappers, and although I had spent time playing around with the idea of doing “Gospel Rap” I decided to just be myself and focus on making more music that is positive, relevant and most of all, REAL! I am the lead artist in a Rap group based out of Lafayette, LA, known as Tha Foot Clan.I am also the founder and owner of the independent record label, Ghetto Graduates Records, (LLC). In 2012 I was also inducted as a 2nd generation member in the legendary Hip Hop Rap collective from Houston, TX, the South Park Coalition, by the Coalition founder himself, K-Rino.

KLONDIKE KAT Klondike Kat began rapping in 1986. While he loves hip hop, his love for all music came from his mother and grandmother. His first act showing his appreciation of music began with the responsibility of returning the records to their sleeves given to him by his mother every Saturday morning.

Kat did everything he could to be around music from being in a singing group with friends beginning at age 13, playing Michael Jackson in the school talent show and eventually writing his own originals by the time he reached high school. He battled other artist from other schools in the Houston area which is where he met Krino. Kat went on to become one of the first original members of the South Park Coalition based in Houston, Texas. In 1993, his first EP Hustler dropped. It was definitely work that was noticed. What followed was Mobbin’ Music Melodies (1996), Biography of a Made Man (1999), Eating Off the Streets Vol. 1(2001), Eating off The Streets Vol 2(2003), Grand Theft Hustling in 2009. Klondike has been featured with with other SPC artist like his close friends Krino and Point Blank and many artist from other labels including DJ Screw, Ice T, Lil Keke, Zro, Tre the truth and a host of others. Kat not only raps but can sing. Many times he will use different accents that would make one believe he does have a featured artist. Klondike Kat is still making music. He is a forward movement in Houston hip hop. Kat still wants every song to leave a lasting impression on each listener as long as he has something to say.

Klondike’s legacy continues in the form of his youngest son and youngest brother both in their early twenties. His son, known as Ric Demone raps and sings as well. His brother, Lou produces and is the family beat maker. His daughter family nicknamed Pinky, who is also his oldest child raps and sings. Through it all, as time marches on Klondike Kay remains a fixture in the Houston rap scene as a legend who still breathes for a fresh new beat and the lyrics he creates to go along with it.

I am pretty much your connect to Who’s Who & Who’s Not! My name is Jolynn Whittington born in Baton Rouge, La but family moved to Texas soon after. I want to Thank God first and foremost for all my blessings and this wonderful journey he has taken me on.

PSK-13

PSK-13 is easily one of Houston’s most talented MCs. Since 1994 he has been a mainstay on Houston’s sizzling underground Hip-hop scene. A member of The Southpark Coaliton, Screwed Up Click and Wreckless Klan, respectively, PSK-13 has garnered respect and admiration from some of the industry’s biggest acts including, Ice-T, Scarface, Bun B, Lil Troy, Z-Ro, Slim Thug and J-Dawg to name a few.

His unique delivery and distinctive cadence make his verses easy to recognize on some of the South’s best projects which includes appearances on Southside Groovin’, June 27, Slipped Into a Coma and Master P’s Down South Hustlers Compilation (RIAA Certified Platinum).

In 1998, PSK-13 collaborated with Southern Royalty in the likes if UGK. The union produced “one of the South’s best songs EVER”, according to D ​ ave Weiner, Director of A&R and Marketing at Priority Records.

The song was entitled LIKE YESTERDAY and literally made PSK-13 a house hold name from Washington DC to California and everywhere in between.

After much success from the single, PSK13 became affixed to Houston’s newest culture swing in that of DJ Screws music.

Linking up with Screw was believed to be another career positive as the two agreed to release PAY LIKE YOU WEIGH but Screws untimely death put those aspirations aside.

Left with a decision to make PSK-13 decided to finish the project with DJ Michael 5000 Watts which was a perfect decision.

PAY LIKE YOU WEIGH 5000 sold more than 50k units and set PSK-13’s self owned label NIGHTSHIFT MUZIK on a successful path.

PSK-13 decided to take the Screw Culture to the next level by branding his NIGHTSHIIFT MUZIK label and releasing one of the most successful Trilogies of Screw Muzik to date, The Something To Lean series.

The collaboration with upstart Beltway 8 Records was meant to be. The series did over 100K units and proved that PSK-13 was not only one of the hottest MCS in the South but we’ll on his way to becoming one of the most succesful.

In 2000 PSK-13 was recruited by Russell ‘Bigtyme’ Washington and UGK legendary Pimp C, to hold down a position in Pimp’s new group effort, Trill Azz Niggas. After recording for a week in Atlanta, UGKs heavy workload and obligations to Jive Records, cut the project short but not before some songs were recorded. Although the album never reached a release date some of the songs have been leaked and are on popular mix tapes.

Today I’m speaking to Cl’Che, a well known artist in the music industry, and an passionate activist.

1. Cl’Che, tell me what is it like to be labeled as Ms. Houston, and receiving a Proclamation from Houston’s Mayor Sylvester Turner? Tell me a little about Cl’Che.

CL’CHE

My friend and business partner Mr.Bling aka Puggy Pugg gave me the title Ms.Houston because he was like “no other female does it like you Cl’” He witnessed my entrepreneural grind determination and input as a music artist, business woman, and activist in these Houston streets..If I said it I made it happen, still do. So what its like being called Ms.Houston? Sounds about right to me and for me..not boasting but speaking truth on the paper I put blood ,sweat,and tears in this game of music for what I believed in..and that was and is myself..nobody fought for me like I did..nobody grinded for Cl’ like I did..Nobody put it down like I did..just like no one can put it down like any of you can.So the uniqueness of the gifts talents and strengths God Blessed me with make me who I am and different than the rest.. So Ms.Houston fit me well and I accepted.Being proclamated on July2nd was a gift from a friend that wanted to do something very nice for me so I can’t give Mayor Sylvestor Turner all that credit..the other half goes to my Dame Society Sisters RawLt and Leilani Monroe for thinking that great of me and thought I deserved to be proclamated..I Thank them it was special to me because of that reason alone..Cl’Che’ Day is nothing if Cl’Che’ Dont do nothing for her people,so I like to say its Cl’Che’ Day everyday as Ms.Houston use the gifts God blesses me with to help our ppl daily come up from poverty and senseless gun violence against one another.

2. Congratulations July 2nd is officially Cl’Che day Yes! 3. What are your views on police brutality, and what are your ideas for a solution?

Police Brutality is welcomed in this society because they built this country that way.its not a coincidence ITS A PLAN, it needs to be stopped and dealt with fairly by governmental laws. We the ppl been fighting for our rights and laws to be enforced but I think MORE of us need to be aware and step up to the fight so the punch could be harder to do away with these unrighteous crimes like any others.

4. On Martin Luther King Jr birthday just last month, the same intersection you was honored with the proclamation. Four people was shot including a 13 yr old girl, what do you feel is the solutions for black on black crime?

UNITY, I feel unity is the solution, once we learn that once we come together as a people that so much would be obsolete like killings would be decreased.. Less crimes in our communities.. Less hate..less disconnections of Love.. Love rules! Love will make you not want to harm your brother or sister.

5. You go out to schools and speak to the youth. Is the forum about violence in the neighborhood’s or education?

Both.. The program is called One Houston One Hood.. which consists of Bro.Gerry Monroe who fights with the school boards for our kids to have the best in our Black n Latino communities. Calandrian Kemp founder of “The Village of Mothers” advocate for parents that lost their children from senseless gun violence. Carlos Jiminez with “Texas Alliance for Crime Prevention” and also ex member of the Mexican Mafia..OG1 creator of “The Scared Straight Program” which he has now “Operation Outreach” reconstructing lives of juveniles. Then you have myself, Cl’Che’ HipHop music artist and activist that reach our ppl and youth through hip hop, and to sum it up Dr. Robert Muhammad that finalizes all of what we all bring to the table to one solution. So you ask is it about violence? Yes, to save our babies from it. Then u asked is it about education Yes! To building our schools back up from books to motivation of how great they are and could achieve anything they desire, while supplying outlets and tools for them to use.

6. Do you ever reach out to parents in the communities, and speak about violence?

Always.. Through my music, my events and social media 7. Who’s Cl’Che biggest inspiration?

My biggest inspiration here on this earth I would have to say Dr. Robert Muhammad. looking at this black man bring a unit of lost ppl together and fill us with knowledge of self and ability inspired me to give that back to my ppl so we can build our communities and ppl back to our original ruling.

8. What advice will you give to new artist?

New artist don’t change to fit in. Be urself your uniqueness is your fortune. Don’t kill us with your gift. Give the world life with it then you know your doing what God has you to do with it.

9. Do you write all of your music?

Yes 10. How does Cl’Che take a break.

That’s a hard one.. But I have to say take a trip.
