New York City has changed a lot. Parts of Harlem look like SoHo, Brooklyn seems to be turning in a suburb of NYC and Queens. Well Queens is still Queens, but the rest of the city is changing. As New York City changes so does the culture that it helped birth, hip-hop.
No longer is New York the epicenter of everything cool and acceptable in the game. The South, Mid-West and West Coast have all carved out their own piece of the hip-hop pie. New York has been dormant, but lately the Rotten Apple has re-emerged as a super power in the industry.
So it natural that Bronx native Darq is happy to see the game come back to where it all began. “I’m from the Bronx. That’s where hip-hop began so all that’s in me”
The BX native is showing that the Bronx isn’t just tattooed on his arm. Its etched in his heart. His new single BX remix featuring Bugz and Cuban Linx goes on to prove that. “I had to go get them because they were from the Bronx. Everything just fit.”
A true-skool hip-hop head trapped in a new school world, Draq has what it takes to make it in the industry without loosing who he is.
“I feel like there’s room for real hip-hop right now,” said Darq when asked where he fits in with today’s hip-hop scene. “Good music is good music”
