Ameen - Not Just a Bootycall
Ameen sent in a track titled Not Just a Booty Call from his mixtape Volume 1 Ameen.
Ameen Abdullah, 25 years old, considers himself an open book. Born in Haiti, Ameen moved to Brooklyn, New York before his first birthday, but claims the Queens as his home, where he’s lived since he was 10 years old. Aside from rapping, he also writes poetry, considering himself more then just a rapper.Visit Ameen on Myspace
Ameen started rapping at sixteen, on his block, trains, and in school. In 2006, Ameen took a hiatus from his rapping, before a trip to Africa, on which he converted from Christianity, to Muslim and became extremely religious. He was inspired to start rapping again because he wanted to improve his game and see where he stood.
Ameen’s first open mic he performed at a New York open mic poetry slam, in 2008. Following that performance, Ameen realized how much he missed the game, and in 2009 his first mix tape dropped.

Prolific feat. Nina Simone - Spell on You
Prolific's manager just sent in a few tracks and had to post up this dopeness.
Welcome to the movement. The Hip-Hop group named Prolific, which consists of four MC’s from the southeast, started this movement back in 1997. Flamez, Neme, Zin O.D. and Exile the Experience met while living in Orlando, Florida. The members were introduced to each other in high school by a neighborhood friend, Kid Twist. Kid Twist linked Flamez and Exile together, and later on Twist introduced the two of them to Neme. Zin O.D. was the younger brother of another neighborhood friend and the last MC to join the group. They proceeded to rock talent shows and freestyle battles every chance they could get. After graduation, the crew stayed close and continued their journey.
Throughout the years this dynamic quartet has released a series of mixtapes and singles for the masses. In 2004, their first single “Pump Ya Fist” dropped, accompanied with a music video. Shot in downtown Orlando, the video showcased their talent and foreshadowed the greatness to come. In 2005, Prolific released the mixtape called “Live From The O Part 1”. That was just the first installment of the series and in 2008 and 2009, “Live From The O Part 2 and 3” was released, respectively. The singles, “Get Your Hustle Up” and “Situations” produced by San Calo, was released in 2009. “Get Your Hustle Up” which features Zin O.D., Neme and Exile is a radio ready, street banger, with sharp lyricism and a hypnotizing beat. Flamez, Neme and Zin O.D. are featured on “Situations”. The laid back hook and smooth beat is the perfect platform to let the listener get lost in the storytelling. With “Live From The O Part 4” and the EP The Movement scheduled to drop in 2010, the sky is the limit.
Each member brings a different style to the table, to make Prolific an unstoppable force. Flamez, who is originally from Bronx, NY, has a fearless delivery and a flow like a rollercoaster ride. He moves seamlessly from metaphor to metaphor while riding the beat with ease. Originating from Brooklyn, NY, Neme, has an unmistakable voice with a flow to match. His raspy voice puts emphasis on every word, and ends each statement with an exclamation point. Zin O.D., who is from Florida, has a rapid fire delivery that can rival Twista’s. At any tempo, he can slow down or speed up his flow to perfectly complement any beat, yet lyrically, pass any test. Exile the Experience was born in Atlanta, Ga, and this southerner uses his distinct pitch and poignant lyrics to leave a lasting impression. All together, these four men are on a mission to sustain Hip-Hop as a global genre. Welcome to the movement.
The group is gearing up to drop their independently-released Ep, The Movement this fall and their new mixtape Now Or Never with Dj Rok is dropping September 1st.

Daddy GoGo - Chapter 1: Growth
Daddy GoGo sent in this track from his mixtape Chapter1:Growth
I'm a 21 year old rapper from Kankakee, Illinois. I've been rappingYou can listen to his mixtape at http://www.datpiff.com/STO_Records_Daddy_GoGo_Chapter_1_Growth.m144218.html
for over nine years, though I only just started recording from home on
April 16th of this year. I like to do songs with messages as my main
focus, and I've been building a reputation of going against what's
'hot' in the media a lot of the time to make the music -I- want to
hear. When I do my tracks I have three other 'personalities' or
'styles' to work with. My primary overall style is just how I normally
am, Daddy GoGo. The others are Dok'Ta J--the educator & love doctor,
Hades--more agressive side and darker emotioned one, and
Persephone--the point of view of women in my life spanning from my
mother to girls I meet. 'She' is also like Hades, and much more
agressive at times.
