Dat New Music Presents: Dave Raps

Music is evolving and heading in a different direction, and there are a handful of up and coming artists who understand that; Dave Raps is one of them. Born and raised in Yonkers, New York, Dave was always around reggae music growing up in a Caribbean home. It wasn't until his family made a migration to the south when he realized that the change of scenery would change him. Central Florida became his new home in 2004, and he felt like his new southern surroundings lacked the culture and the pace that New York had to offer. During the next four years, Dave found himself working at jobs he didn't see a future in, and trying to find out what he was put on this earth for.

Dave Raps first started working on his craft in 2008 when he felt like he needed a purpose for the rest of his life, and he never turned back. His music is unique in the sense that he bridges honesty with creativity. His music is a blend of inner thoughts and outer influences. Dave is in tune with what people want to hear from rappers and he's been a student of the game ever since he bought his first mic. With time, he hopes to bring his sound to the forefront, and become one of the newest voices in hip-hop.

Moxie Black - So Much Better

“So Much Better" is a post-modern juxtaposition between anti-establishmentarianist tendencies and western eco-polity in the frame of global economics............NHHAT!
Call it the summer-jam of 2010, easy to reminisce to, but so much better to make new memories with. One part indie-pop, two parts hip-hop, shake, stir, now drink it up!

The group is still buzzing from the success of last week's electro-infused debut, "Risky Bizness," which landed them a spot on Complex Magazine's 5 O'Clock Shuffle:

"Today’s leaks are all about artists who know no genres... Moxie Black clashes indie electro backdrops with hip-hop and R&B sensibilities."
