George Watsky is a winner of the Youth Speaks Poetry Grand Slam and the Brave New Voices National Slam championships. He has been a featured performer on Russell Simmons Presents Def Poetry on HBO and one of three poets who performed live on FOX during the NAACP Image Awards, among (many, many) others. So why did it take me so long to find out about a guy who have already shared billing with icons such as Stevie Wonder, Beyonce, and Talib Kweli? Wish I knew, but I know that there is no reason why you should wait any longer to get to know him too.

Brock Berrigan was hatched in Astoria, Queens some two and a half decades ago… since then, Berrigan has lived a life of seclusion; drunkenly wondering from town to town digging through vinyl, watching cable television, and living off of half empty packs of cigarettes and bottles of beer. Today, he makes his way the only way a creature of his design knows how; through Film Score or landing the occasional Session (Musician) gig for any of the several instruments in his well rounded and highly valued repertoire. As of recently, Brock's "Hip Hop" page was featured on SoundCloud's "Artist of the Day" capturing a quickly growing listener base and demand for more music.

Before this you might not have heard of Vanatei [Va-neeh-tee], and after, you'll either find your next favorite female rapper or move on to find somebody else. I'm not exactly big on female rappers myself, but the few that I've discovered I actually really liked. One of the latest female MCs I've come across is Vanatei.

This spunky girl from Newark, New Jersey is not just a rapper but also an advertising guru. [She set up and manages her own advertising business.] Her skills as a rapper is something to rave about as well, with her album Dis Bish Got Moola, showcasing her knack for creating catchy beats while spitting out stark lyrics and producing good rhythm.
