RA & Lyriciss Live this Thursday!!!!!!

The DMV EMA's



Wale

Lil' Mo & DJ Rico

Mya

Yall know I don't really review shows and artist because I'm hella opinionated and I don't want to offend anyone. This is how I feel about the DMV awards: It was a great opportunity for DMV entertainers of all sorts to unite and support each other. There was a lot of love in the room!

I can't speak for anyone else but Mahogany worked her butt off organizing this event. Much love to Mahogany Jones and Dre All Day in the Paint!

MESSAGE FROM RA


Hey!

So I just wanted to take a moment and say THANK YOU to everyone who's been supporting me thus far. Every musician has her/his reasons for treading this road to stardom, I can only speak for myself by saying, I honestly do this for the love of music. This past year has been world changing for me, both personally and professionally. March of last year was a completely different RAtheMC and Rashea. I've grown and learned a lot about people in general, as well as myself. This industry can either make you or break you. I've already came close to breaking and I'm no where near where I'd like to be in my career yet. However, I'm motivated everyday to write another verse because my supporters make me feel like I matter.

So...

Thanks to every fan who downloaded a song, to every DJ who span my records, to every promoter who booked me for a show, to every artist who reached out for a feature as well as those who lent features, to every blogger that blogged the kid, to every producer that sent a beat, to every clothing line that sent free stuff! THANK YOU

& of course thanks to Strange Music!

we're about to turn it up a notch!

Y.U. Oddisee, and XO= The Diamond District


Man Diamond District "Who I Be" has been on repeat in my car allllll day. Forreal. This track has so much freakin energy it's crazy! And the lyrics? Goodness! This is the type of song you listen to when your in "pre-performance" mode, trying to get amped for a show or something.

Download "Who I Be" here:

Neako on Onsmash.com


My homie Neako, who is signed to Sickamore's "Famous Firm" is gearing up to release the second installment of his mixtape series "The Rubix Cube" the first tape of this series was titled "The Red Side" now he gives you green.
If you aren't familiar with this Newark native, look him up. Just about all of his projects are self produced by him, making his lyrics blend more intimately with the beats.

GARVEY'S DISS ON WALE AND TABI


Now I wasn't gonna post this because people seem to be all in a tizzy about this one. Here's my take on it, AHH SO WHAT, lol. I don't know Garvey personally but rap is an expression. It doesn't have to be a justified expression, it's just what you feel. And this is how Garvey felt so whether Tabi and Wale respond or not (and I doubt if they will) I don't see anything wrong with the song. We've heard NY rappers diss other NY rappers, Cali rappers diss Cali rappers, so on and so forth. I look at DMV movement as family, and families have problems. The only difference is we air our problems out on the internet lol....Ahhhhh ya gotta love it!
It's just a song folks, Wale and Tabi are gonna be successful regardless. And DC will support them regardless.

Women in hip-hop panel discussion: Carolyn Malachi, RAtheMC, Porche 911, and Abeer

Part1

Part2

Part3

This was a GREAT and very neccesary event. In a nut shell, people (men and women) don't respect or support women in hip-hop. And this is the year where allllllll that will change. Believe me!

The Hundreds footware?


I like these!

Nylon Spandex are in!



And it's soo comfortable
