Block Entertainment Has A New Sherrif In Town – Meet Supplya
By Isis Wisdom
Don’t know if the article is appropriately titled, but let me say this: “I think Block may have found a winner with this one.”With the loss of Yung Joc who went platinum off his first album you could tell there was something missing. Gorilla Zoe stepped up and held it down but Block needed something else that was just as solid as Zoe to rectify it’s title as a label in the south to be reckoned with. Supplya seems to be a different kind of rap artist. Number one he doesn’t sound like anything that’s out there playing right now. His lyrical game is sick and he has his own signature sound and style. More Below.

Swazy Baby should be commended. While other up and coming artists are busy trying to bury their underground past, Swazy Baby continues to capitalize on his. And why not? It was using mixtapes as a way to build his buzz up intially, Swazy caught the eye of Bigga Rankin.

The 90’s was great era for hip-hop but it was equally great for R&B. Many acts have come and go since then, but the foursome of Jagged Edge has seemed to have staying power. Since their dropping their debut single "The Way That You Talk" back in 1997, JE has been a regular site on the R&B scene.

"I aint never left the scene! I’m always grinding." Bold words like that are normally served for underground artists still trying to get their buzz up.
