So I was totally surprised when I came across this but WOW! Now how cool is that DMV! If your sitting down, stand up and give your self a round of applause! This is MAJOR! The issue has great stories on what is going on in the DMV. Congrats to Ian though. I was just talking to my Mom about him this morning, he is such a huge supporter of the movement here so I am happy for him! So please make sure to DL this month’s issue. It really is a great read :o)

So glad that we have this in our area now. This is a great look Raheem & Dre! Looking forward to hearing some great music come out of this camp..Oh! Also, today is Raheem DeVaughn’s birthday so HAPPY BIRTHDAY Raheem!!
Yeah, so this is going to be one of the SICKEST shows to happen in DC tomorrow night! Seriously! You need to be there if your in the area! if your in Philly, NYC just do a road trip. You will NOT be disappointed!
The 411:
Basically, it was a mash up between DMV producers & artists that usually would not work together. The different producers remixed a certain “Reasonable Doubt” track and MAGIC happened! Someone REALLY needs to get this to the man Jay-Z himself. I KNOW he would appreciate creativity like this. I was actually able to be in the studio when Lyriciss (client) was doing some recording on his track that Kokayi produced :o) THEN Overok (THE man) sent out some footage of Grammy Nominated Raheem DeVaughn laying down some hooks for a track. NICE!
The performances will be like NO other and I WILL be doing some LIVE “tweeting” while in the bulding tomorrow :o) Shout out to Innerloop Records for ALWAYS doing their thing and keeping it real and true to hip hop in the DMV. REAL TALK..Innerloop Records gets it poppin! April 22nd is the next BEATDOWN too..and 9th Wonder is one of the feature Producers..YESSSSS!
Who is Performing?
Well, Overok listed basically like all of them but off the top, it will be Lyriciss, Marky, AB The Producer, XO, Pro’Verb, AP, Sim City, RatheMC, The Package and sooo many more! Point is, BE THERE! :o)
