Okkkkk Sooooo it's #MusicMonday! I must say…EC MARV has hustled hard to make me enjoy, believe, and most importantly RESPECT his music. No longer the "1 lil young ni*ga" outta East Cleveland, EC MARV has quickly pushed past some of CLEVELAND'S musical OG's in solidifying his place in this music industry. With no shortage of drama, relationship issues good/bad (*S/o to Sunni we see you girllllll), internet beef, casual taunting of freniemes, power teasers for new music and visuals, 1 of the originators of the #challenges (*admit it…you've attempted at least 1 #NahFRchallenge ) ohhhhhhh and we can't forget…the face paced bars that seem to almost trip over each other when EC MARV spits….but in a creative, original, mos def takes some talent to be able to ride a beat like that…kinda way. EC MARV seems to understand the way this game goes, and he isn't afraid to get in and play…like…"Nah FR". XOXO

Okkkkk Sooooo when Cedarside Mone invited me back to witness another great CLEVELAND Bar4Bar BATTLE…I was totally down! The battle rap scene is 1 of the most organic, authentic, intriguing, emotional, and creative events you will ever witness! I'm not even a battle rapper, but my heart will start to race, and I can feel my face making facial expressions like "ohhhhh…and damnnnnnn" while I'm standing outside the ring during the battles! Located in East Cleveland (*Shoutout to the SHAW CARDINALS) at the OPN, Cedarside Mone is the king of this hidden gem...battle rap! I'm new to the scene and still trying to figure out all of the opponents, rules, and etiquette. Soooooo I put the NEW BLOOD RISING EVENT into pictures. Make sure you get tickets in advance for the next event! Trust me…you've never seen anything like this! XOXO
