She Poppin': Earanequa

Brown skin poppin' wassup?! Cali native Earanequa has been in and around the industry her whole life. From being related to Chris Stokes to being in former girl group #Jane3, Earanequa has been patiently working and waiting for the right moment to make her mark. I honestly feel that this is a star in the making; Beauty,unique vocal tone,great fashion sense, and dance abilities. Stepping out on her own,she releases 3 new tracks "Body", "Zone" and my personal fav, "Good". Get into her.

The Kid Ryan - I Do

Ok,first let me say that even though I'm from Cali (reside in LA), I'm not the biggest fan of the ratchet,turn up style R&B. The Kid Ryan caught me by surprise with his new song "I Do". Granted the track sounds very similar to TeeFlii's #24Hours, but unlike the former, Ryan proves that he's an actual vocalist with a smooth falsetto and fresh melodies. It doesn't hurt that there's a sample from 90's classic "Freak Like Me" by Adina Howard. Can't wait to hear more from this guy.

DJ Mustard Presents: RJ and Royce The Choice

I'm just getting familiar with RJ, but I've known about Royce The Choice for years now. He had my favorite verse on Mann's #FknSomethin during the Jerk days (Royce The Choice from the eight and I love..). Backed by DJ Mustard's 10 Summers label and YG's Pushaz Ink imprint, Royce and RJ are dropping a collaborative effort 1.12.15 called "Rich Off Mackin". Royce has dope word play,crystal clear enunciation, and a tone of voice that hasn't been heard yet. RJ jump starts tracks with his energetic delivery and animated vocals. Individually and together, these two Cali rappers are next up to continue this movement #Weeeessssst

She Poppin': Moxiie

Displaying her own sound of Jungle Pop, Moxiie has caught my attention.I live for a good teen movie,and her music (especially her single #Jilted) has high school love affair written all over it. I really enjoy her tone and inflections as well as her "beat of my own drum" artistry. Check out #Jilted and be on the look out for more from this NYC-based singer/songwriter.

Album: Omarion - Sex Playlist

One of my favorite male singers dropped his fourth studio album today. Omarion's "Sex Playlist" is definitely that. Slinky sounds,confident lyrics,lush melodies,and bass depict long sessions of love making or...just some good ol' f*ckin'. I can honestly let the whole album play,but I do have a few standouts. Lead single #PostToBe ft. Chris Brown and Jhene Aiko is the most turnt up record here. Lyrics like "And he gotta eat the booty like groceries" over a Mustard beat by the lovely Ms.Aiko are gold enough. #Work is my favorite song off the album.It's just so sexy and mysterious. Everytime I listen to it I visualize luxury real estate,shadows,and satin sheets;Stainless Steal Love Affair lol. From the 90's stylings of #YouLikeIt to the breathy,Brandy-esque harmonies in #Steam, "Sex Playlist" is sounding like one of this year's best R&B projects. Out now on iTunes.

Teairra Mari - Deserve

'Act right,the way you love me I swear that it's a life changer'...Teairra has always been one of my favs. Her debut is still poppin' #ActRight #PhoneBooth including other joints #Uneasy #UDidDat. I'm so glad she's getting another chance at this music thing.I'm a fan outside of LHHH so I won't really touch on that,but it was a great promotional tool I will say. Here's her new single "Deserve" written/produced by Yung Berg(HitMaka) and it's fire.It definitely falls in line with her earlier work;sassy and bass heavy.With this single,plus how good she has been looking as of late,Teairra Mari should have no problems reigniting interest.

Audio Push ft. Wale - Quick Fast

Long time coming. My boys from the IE(Inland Empire) are finally here with their 1st single from their debut album due via Hit-Boy's HS87 Imprint. "Quick Fast" is a snapping midtempo with a Cali bassline that details a day in the life duo. Wale comes in with a fiery verse with stick out line, "I know some chicks who probably blow they scholarship on a weave". I've had the honor to meet and hang around them & their camp,and all I can say is talented,humble,stand up guys. And we all know HS87 can throw a poppin' function *hits G step*
