Introducing
Whats Your Name?
Micah Longoria (MILO)
Birth Date
January 8 1987
Rep Your City
TULSA/ SAND SPRINGS
Label?? Midwest Money Gang
Introduce Yourself
What's Up folks, My name is MILO
I'm a young, talented, motivated, and very lyrical Artist with Big dreams that are bound to turn to reality. I bring so much diversity and energy to the track. Each song I have is unique, lyrical, and very catchy. I'm not like any other rappers you have ever heard. I'm educated, intelligent, comical, and I can ride the beat like a roller coaster. With catchy verses and great punchlines, I'm a lyricist making big moves and always looking forward to whats coming next! I have the kind of personality that people just enjoy being around. With me, I'm pretty much a goofball, so there is never a dull moment.. If you're going to be around me you better be outgoing and ready to laugh. If you can't laugh, you are taking life way to seriously.. I'm all about having a good time and staying on chill mode. But, when I'm in the Booth, It's a whole different story...
What Sets You Apart from Other Artists?
There are many things that set me apart from other
rappers.. First of all, Not sure if You noticed, I'm a Mexican/Italian That looks like a White Boy! LOL. My fashion changes every week..I used to wear all POLO and LaCoste, But too many people are rocking that style now, I switched it up to more of an Aztek/Indie look and rock a lot of Tank tops This time around..The beats I jump on are totally insane with nice build up and big Drops. My beats are unique in which they have an EDM feel to it, mixed with hip-hop and Rap. I don't talk about things that I haven't lived.. Therefore you won't hear MILO talk about shooting any guns and selling drugs, beating people, None of that hardcore non sense. I keep it real and only spit the things I know, Like how to party, have a good time, Get the crowd hype, and hit em with a crazy flow with some Dope punchlines that are so witty it will have you smiling and bobbing your head at the same time..
When Did You First Start Your Music Career? Why? I have always been a fan of Lyrics and Rap/Hip-Hop music since I was a little boy, and I have always been good at writing stories and poems. Jr. High and High school I knew I was a bigger fan of music than most when I sang a Nelly song in the talent show, Danced across stage and realized I love being on stage, I'm great at rocking a mic, and I love being the center of attention.. This was my calling.. Once I got to college we would have these huge parties and Freestyle all the time. We did it so much that the neighborhood would show up and watch us all battle back and forth cause we were really good. Some one told us we should record it because we dropped so many hot bars all the time, so that's what I did.. I saved up my money, did research, and bought all the equipment I needed to start doing this on the daily and it has been a wrap ever since.. I started about 3 years ago but Just got serious with my production a year and a half ago. My game has came a long way and I'm heading in the right direction now..
.
Who Are Your Favorite Artists?
My all time favorite artist is Wiz Khalifa, Hands
down.. Always was and always will be! Since day 1 I wanted to be in Taylor Gang! (I still do, So WIZ! HOLLER AT ME!!) I like Wiz cause He reminds me of myself. A happy go lucky type of dude with dope Bars for days, And always in a good mood just Chillin. Other Artists I love are B.O.B., Kid Cudi, Kendrick Lamar, B.I.G, Schoolboy Q, Jay Z, 2 Chainz (He's goofy and makes me laugh So that's a plus) Emenem, Andre 3000, Chip Tha Ripper (King Chip) Drake, Ludacris... Many Many others I just can't name them all right now, we would be here all day..
Which Artist has the Most Influence On You? Why? Wiz Khalifa.. Because I love his style and the beats he jumps on is amazing. He never talks about shooting guns or killing or nothing crazy like that, Just blowing smoke and chilling and having a good time. And not afraid to try something different and be the standout.. I'd rather standout than fit in any day.
If You Could Collab with Any Artist In the World Who Would It Be and Why? Again, Wiz Khalifa or any Taylor Gang artists!
Kendrick Lamar, or B.O.B... Wiz because I
know that song would be a banger and we would have everybody Vibing to that joint! Kendrick and B.O.B. because they are very lyrical and intelligent So I feel that we could shred that track to pieces and have the world shook on some Lyrical content!
Are There Any Independent or Underground Artists You Want to Collab With? Absolutely. I would like to cut a track with Trapp Tha General, Tha Supa, Yung Nasti, OILHOUSE.... Oklahoma has a lot of nice talent that hasn't been heard yet.. Just a matter of time before Oklahoma blows up and shows the world we have talent too!
Upcoming Releases? Shows? Tours?
I have 2 EP's coming out by the end of August.
"Big Dreams", and "Still Dreaming" are on the way and you can get those on my website. Follow me on all social media for all the latest updates and to get a copy of my CD's.
Tell Us a Secret.... What is something your fans may not know about you? have A.D.D. and I get bored with things super easy! I'm constantly up to something and I hate being by myself!! I always need someone around to keep me company or I lose my mind. I like being in big crowds and having a good time, not Chilling by myself..

Mr Brownswagger “Swagger 2 the Max” 618′s own Mr. Brownswagger, linked up with Kansas City producer Baby Nelson, to create the anthem “Swagger 2 the Max,” which also features an artist by the name 100, and is expected to be released with Browns upcoming mixtape “Strap or Die.” The song itself features the up tempo 808 snare and string melody and a theme consistent with the featured artist name Brown (Swag) ger , filled with sound effects including a glimpse of auto tune, a Pewee Herman drop, and more. The video, shot by Eagle Films, shows Brownswagger, at an East St. Louis liquor store, A & S, shows different scenes of them pulling down bottles, and posted up at the local corner store. At the video’s closing Mr. Brownswagger gives us a glimpse of his newest single “Thot Chick” which I’m assuming is also on the upcoming mixtape “Strap or Die.”
Milli B @TheReal_MilliB “Let It Whip” & Beyond Whobeta’s working Woman of the Week Whip is the 1st official single / video for up coming female vocalist Milli B of BelleLe t
it
ville , Illinois. With the familiar title the song is a remake of the hit single “Let It Whip” by the Dazz Band. After watching the 3 minute red lensed video filmed by Eagle Films there is no question how it hit almost 2,000 views in less then 3 weeks. The video (not for kids eyes), stars an almost naked Milli B in several scenes including split second bubble bath scenes, who is waiting on a unknown assailant that eventually comes in to hump the songstress and get grind-ed on. She has been making her rounds in the local scene with her record since its release and has expressed her wants of hitting the road and expanding her brand.
@KingCAKES100 Official Music Video “Pootie Tang” Filmed By @MikeSpeelberg81 St .Louis native King Cakes and director Mike Speelberg of Papara Z St
Media, gives us the long awaited visuals to one of the hottest tracks in the Region “Pootie Tang” a high energy club song Title Inspired by the late 90′s Film and SNL comedy Skit of the same name. The video features scenes from down town St.Louis, down town East Saint Louis, and east side landmark “Studio 618 /Lavender Room, and also features Dancers Bambi Berry, Lea’s Angels of Peoria and more.
This new R&B artist is sweeping through the Midwest with his energetic style. Yung Nasti never leaves an audience unsatisfied. July 4th he dropped his highly anticipated ep album "The Awakening" with singles "Just Gotta Make It" and “What I Gotta Do”. “Just Gotta Make It” is a song that everyone can relate too, it’s about someone wanting success and wanting to accomplish goals. His 2nd single "What I Gotta Do" is definitely for the ladies all around. Look out for the sexy visual releasing this month.overall Yung Nasti is filling in a role that artist like R. Kelly, Ginuwine, and Silk left behind. He caters strictly to the ladies and you can never go wrong with that!

This fresh, fierce, and very ambitious twenty -one year old aspiring model; Mahcala was born and raised in Gallup, New Mexico, and is now a resident of Ponca City, Oklahoma. She is a Model with Motive to inspire her seven year old sister, Anya, who was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in October of 2013. A few months into chemo therapy Anya began to lose her hair. To support her sister, Mahcala also let go of her own hair. The first few weeks without hair were tough on Anya who was accustomed to having long, thick hair to style and play with. She was very self -conscious wearing hats and headbands. Mahcala did not like to see her sister, normally an out-going and out-spoken diva who loved to be the center of attention, to act so shy hiding herself from people in fear of being judged. Mahcala then did something to show Anya and every other child world wide that no matter how you look or who you are; beauty is creativity and can very well come from the inside. Above all, this experience motivated this young model to spread leukemia awareness. Despite limitations, with motivational prospects anything is possible. A major goal Mahcala has is to host an annual fashion showcase for promotional conventions to collect donations for leukemia victims and their families. Mahcala is proclaimed to be an open minded individual who wants to be known as an inspiration for everyone who is fighting any battle. In her most recent photography session with William Raines, creator of "Eye of Rain," she uses a rebellious attitude to draw the attention of everyone to her, displaying a shaved head and her own style. She is interested in doing a variety of upcoming events which include the following: hosting, promotion, runway showcasing, car shows, music promotion, short films, and more. You can inquire about her on her Facebook page "Mahcala the MOdel". Be sure to like and share this page with your family and friends when you visit. Stay updated and watch her progress as she rises to the top and get information on how to contribute to leukemia awareness.

In his pre-teen years, he realized the gifts that were God given in the art or music and expression. Growing up in the rougher parts of Oklahoma City and Spencer, he used music as an outlet to shelter reality of inner -city living. He is a singer, rapper, producer and songwriter that excels in each genre. As a youth he moved most of his attention to the east coast scene and honed his craft in Harlem, New York. He is currently the lead artist and CEO of GP Productions and is under the management of Ashley J Promotions. He is currently promoting his singles: "Deeper", "Phone Call Away" and "Dreaming", from his debut R&B album "Room 54" (2014). He has a full roster under his GP Productions imprint that include: Q.

The main thing that separates me from other artist would be my voice, my sound, the way I deliver, & my work ethic.

One of my class mates at the time was doing music & was apart of this group called CTP. He brought me one of his cd's one day. I took it home & listened to it & I was shocked & impressed because it was really good & it was local music & I actually knew these guys. So I decided to give the music thing a try myself, cause I actually was doing poetry already anyway. Started recording on an old tape player my mama bought me & I been at it every since. It helps me clear my head at times, motivates me, & I just had a passion for it every since... Who Are Your Favorite Artists? I like Young Jeezy, Rich Homie Quan, Yo Gotti, K.Camp, Zed Zilla, 2 Chainz, Doe B, Migos, & Starlito... Which Artist has the Most Influence On You? Why? I would have to say Yo Gotti. Just seeing him so much as an artist & succeed as much as he has is crazy to me. I remember been around 10 & 11 listening to his "Life" album, listening to him &
