Leave a comment

New Orleans has a secret weapon ready to explode the streets. Uptown New Orleans Rap artist Junior Montana has come to the front line to hold the torch for his city. With his straight forward demeanor and mean lyrics, he amazes anyone who listens to him. He has his latest track titled “Right Time” which is a New Orleans bounce song.

He expresses how he is going to be up next in New Orleans to make it pop on the music scene. Junior compares his come up as Lil Wayne did.

I’m The New King of South. Tell T.I. Im not asking for that. I’m taking that.

He feels that artist today just rap with no substance. He states they need to reflect off some throwback hip hop music and learn versatility and structure. Junior seems very certain about this claim of becoming The King of The South and ringing the alarms for everyone to hear.

His music is inspired by artists such as Lil Wayne and Young Jeezy. His style and flow is not distinctive in his opinion. He has am selective melodies where he tap into any genre he likes. He becomes versatile with his sound.

Montana states:

“I don’t write, so it becomes a quick process. I’m like 15 minutes with a verse. In like 2 hours a song is complete. I have a crazy thought process.”

Junior Montana has a video entitled “Reloaded” which he says is self explanatory for himself.

“That’s to let them know I got the flavor like the Hot Boyz”

Junior Montana shares how he hasn’t done any collaborations due to no other artists reaching out. He does state how he would not mind working a few local artists such as Da Kannable, Weed Junkie, Max P, and Jay Jones.

Junior is an artist who is a realist within his lyrics. He stress that he do not talk anything fabricated and speak to the streets. Some artists lose their their identity by rapping about what’s not true. Junior wants the world to know he is next up and expect his wave to hit hard.

Swisher Sweets Presents Their Huge Artist Project Concert with Special Guests – NOLATakover

1 Comment

New Orleans was granted a special gift after the holidays with Swisha Sweet’s massive show. Swisher Sweets presents The Artist Project where they created a show to highlight both mainstream and independent artists. The concert took place at The Orpheum Theater downtown of New Orleans. Every year, The Artist Project travels to different cities across the nation.

The NOLA Takeover gave seven emerging artists a chance to shine, opening for some of our biggest hip hop artists today. The artists consists of Snap Dogg, Kelechi, Iman, Charles Bryan, J Soulja, Don Doliver, and Rizzoo Rizzoo. These 7 artists were chosen and voted in by fans. They received the chance to open up for MGK, Desiigner, Gucci Mane, and Fetti Wap.

Concert Review:

Upon arrival, guests were greeted with a special welcome from Swisher Sweets. The venue was filled with a great amount of fans, supporters, and special guests. The cheerful crowd anticipates all talents.

With New Orleans legendary, DJ Mannie Fresh and Comedian Rude Jude, they kept the crowd rolling. They kept us hyped and full of energy.

What we noticed was that the lineup for the show became diverse. We would normally see all opening acts perform before the headliners. Well, Swisher shuffled the stars with aspiring artists. Giving everyone a chance to be equally heard throughout the show. This made the show more exciting.

Every artist gave a good show, we received a special show from Fetti Wap. He served his fans up and down the stage. He seemed to have enjoyed the show as much as the audience did. Wap dances and sang without a doubt in his mind. We got the chance to see him live performing all of his hit songs.

Next, we seen the best performance of the show By Machine Gun Kelly. MGK show seemed to be one of the most anticipated from the crowds reaction. He bounced from one end of stage to another, even climbing on top of balcony. Touching everyone from upstairs on down, we loved that part of show.

The last performance was worth waiting for as LaFlare (Gucci Mane) comes unto the stage glowing the venue up! Atlanta’s own comes to New Orleans and sang his fans favorite songs. Gucci is no stranger to the Big Easy, you can tell he felt as f he was at home. He performed hits such as “Lemonade”, “Freaky Girl”, “Wake Up In The Sky”, “Black Beatles”, and more.

Overall, concert was a great experience. We become intimate with the artists, which joined the fans together. One thing that we did noticed was some of the crowd participation become tough for some of the opening acts. The support from the audience lingered throughout the show. Besides that, we give the show both thumbs up! We would like to thank Swisher Sweets for allowing us to attend their show. Can’t wait to see what’s next for the New Year!

Bam Rogers Comes with a”Change of Plans” That You Would Not Forget- Listen Now

Leave a comment

bamrogers

There are definitely a change of plans with the great body of work created by Bam Rogers. The Arkansas Hip-Hop artist blessed his fans on his birthday November 14th with his new project. Bam Rogers is an artist under Rap-A-Lot Records. The twelve tracked album has an amazing selection for all to enjoy.

What’s even more exciting is the production throughout “Change of Plans”. Super Producer QB The Problem masters his craft with eight tracks. Each track depicts a story while Bam give us his all on each song. QB explains how this was one lengthy project to complete. In our opinion, this was definitely worth the wait, which created perfect timing. There was also production by Code Red, Rambo, and Bruce Bang, who produced the bonus track “Never Be The Same”. His team took no short cuts and delivered thus far one of his best creations yet. “Change of Plans” has now woken up the sleeping giant.

The first track of “Change of Plans” is titled “Wake You Up” featuring Bilbo Rogers. He creates a sensual masterpiece. His collaboration with the R&B singer Bilbo did not take away from his sound. Bam expresses his bedroom stories which becomes very vivid for any lady once they hear it. This was a great collaboration.

“Solid” is one of our top picks from the album. He speaks on how many may not be as solid as expected. He explains how his expectations fades after seeing the truth. This song can become relative soon as it comes on. The production of the track is strong and can be placed on repeat.

“On Time” produced by Code Red, immediately brings you to a particular place. The introduction of the track carries “Always on Time” by Ashanti and JaRule. You wouldn’t expect Bam Rogers to share this beautiful voice. Again he talks to that lady, where you will find this song very intimate.

“Blessings” becomes another dope song on the album. He switches it up several times where he keeps up with his momentum. The beat doesn’t make it any better, the production shifts from the first few seconds into the song. We love how the producer continues to convey each of their tracks with Bam’s mastermind.

“Faithful” will be a favorite without a doubt. This track has a Caribbean style with sexy flows for you to dance to. He speaks on being faithful on each sides of the fence. Bam’s sensual voice aligns perfectly with its production.

“Change” is a plead to make things right between him and his lady friend. The short depiction he shares gives his apologies, pouring his heart out with his voice. You can hear him giving his all. This will be on repeat from many of his fans.

He treats us all and saves “Never Be The Same” as his bonus track. With production by Super Producer Bruce Bangs, you begin to fall right into the song. As soon as it comes on, you anticipates more from it. This song has become a game changer, with no exaggeration.

Overall the project has set another bar for this year. Soon as we thought the year was over, Bam Rogers comes with a “Change of Plans”. Each one of the songs are not as lengthy, which keeps the motives of the album to continue to flow.  Bam has found the way to please the ear with his beautiful voice. This did not take away from his hardcore rap style. He perfectly connected two sides of him. His team of production has definitely set the standards to another level. “Change of Plans” will become one of the best to drop this year, period. We advise you to not take this album likely. He has something everyone would love to hear.
