Fat Boy Radio! have provided me with plenty of great video content over the past few months. Previous artists who have featured on the show include the likes of A.S.H.E.S, David E.Beats and Dyme-A-Duzin. Fat Boy Radio! also covered a Hip-Hop Kings favourite in the form of D Julien. Klassik is the latest underground rapper who has taken to the mic in front of the Fat Boy Radio! camera’s and provides them with a two-minute freestyle. You can watch the Fat Boy Radio! Klassik freestyle on the video player below.

March 9th is a celebration of one of the best rappers to ever walk the earth. Notorious B.I.G aka Biggie Smalls was killed on this day, and bloggers, radio personalities and DJ’s across the world will be bumping Biggie to remember the legend and arguable the greatest ever Hip-Hop performer. D-League have remixed the classic “Juicy” with OhGinelle as a tribute. You can watch the D-League x OhGinelle remix of Juicy on the player below.

I feel like a proud father watching his son growing into the man he always wished for. I’ve known Loose Logic for years, and when I managed to receive the new “Logistics” album I reflected on his rise to fame through his hard work and relentless promotion efforts. I’m also pleased to have every official mixtape from Loose Logic, and the difference in Logistics is evident as I sit here listening to a well produced, strategically created Hip-Hop album.

The first single from Logistics is “iRok”, a club-type track which as always is aimed to bring the fun factor to the album, and also displays some excellent lyricism from Loose Logic himself. A positive response was met from the first single as countless numbers of downloads started to build, and MySpace plays were at an all-time high. Support from HipHopDX and obviously Hip-Hop Kings boosted the awareness, and will assist heavily for the remainder of the campaign.

Brooklyn-born Charlie Hustle is a former Big Pun affiliate who is relatively unknown to the blogosphere, due to the fact he has finished a six year jail sentence in late 2008. The first leak off Charlie Hustle’s upcoming record “Charlie’s World” is titled “Coke Mobb” which features Max B and French Montana. The high profile collaboration is the perfect way to start promotion for Charlie’s World. You can listen to Charlie Hustle x Max B x French Montana – Coke Mobb on the player below.
