Queens D.Light - Everything Special
Sounds like: Ras_G, Invincible, Thee Satisfaction

Main Attrakionz - Perfect Skies
Sounds like: A$AP Rocky, Co$$, Lil B
By sweeney kovar on Sep 14, 2011 | Of all the current batch of rappers that can't legally drink at clubs yet, Main Attrakionz has the most potential.

Danny Brown - 30
Danny Brown - 30
Sounds like: Main Attrakionz, Elzhi, Eminem
By sweeney kovar on Sep 9, 2011 | Danny Brown might have been considered a fringe artist this time last year, but the recent release of his newest (free!) album XXX and its proceeding reception show that the hybrid's popularity is growing by the day. A quick recap: In the mid 2000s D... read more →
