Status The Marlboro Man feat. Krookid Hooks & El Da Sensei "Too Many Styles"

 

TOO MANY STYLES is the new single written and performed by Status The Marlboro Man, Krookid Hooks and El Da Sensei of Artifacts. The collaboration came together at a show in a venue in Denver Colorado. What started as a casual conversation about hip-hop and culture cultivated to an underground - cult classic - boombap banger. TOO MANY STYLES celebrates the range and diversity in approach to hip-hop music. From the gritty storytelling of a streetwise pusher, to the boombastic boisterous art sprayed on an alley wall - hip-hop is the common place for so many different styles to merge.

TOO MANY STYLES is produced by Status on the Akai Mpc with traditional break beat drums and old-school horns. The vintage news anchor loop is a reminder of the early days of beats and rhymes. El Da Sensei brings the classic New Jersey flow with an effortless suaveness. Status is gruff and sarcastic while paying homage to the influences hip-hop has over the pen and paper. Meanwhile, Hooks hits the beat with punchlines and battle ready raps. Together the three emcees have created a hip-hop classic with modern overtones. 

Status and Hooks have pioneered the Hardcore hip-hop scene in Colorado for over twenty years. They've collaborated with legends Sadat X, Son Doobie, Nine and more. El Da Sensei is from the legendary hip-hop group ARTIFACTS, hailing from New Jersey and carrying the torch for true hip-hop fans for decades.

Inf Grizzy (NJ Rapper) Unleashes "Take My Time" Video & Full Interview

Jersey Shore, NJ rapper Inf Grizzy unleashes visuals for his latest single "Take My Time." Sharp lyricism intertwined with vivid storytelling captures Grizzy's violative past. Through gripping vulnerability, he shares about prison, street life, fake friends, and toxic love. An empowering hook solidifies how he rose, overcame, and is now making a name for himself. Watch the video and check out the interview below for more on Grizzy, his contributions to Hip Hop, and more. 

MJ: For those that might be unfamiliar, introduce yourself to the world of music and Hip Hop.

Inf Grizzy: I go by the name of “Inf Grizzy" from the Jersey Shore and I’m an American Hip Hop Artist born in Lakewood, NJ, but fully raised in South Toms River, NJ.

MJ: You represent Toms River, a town on the Jersey Shore and in the middle of Philly and NY but also a town with a limited Hip Hop presence and scene. Has that created any challenges for you, or does it motivate you more? 

Inf Grizzy: It was a big challenge, I had to figure out my formula to get people to know who I am and for them to rock with me. What motivated me was back in the day freestyling at the movie theaters in front of a crowd of people. That made me who I am today stronger, wiser, and presentable.

MJ: Talk a little about your journey to becoming a recording artist. 

Inf Grizzy: To be honest, it was a long ride. Throughout the years I was doing music with a lot of artists that let their egos get the best of them, and thinking they were better than everybody. I had to push myself away from that. Till this day I never gave up, I kept pushing no matter what. The other artists failed because they didn’t continue their grind and just fizzled out. For me, I can’t see myself doing that, so I grind everyday even when I’m tired…I still made things happen. I thank the man upstairs for giving me another chance at this.

MJ: Before we jump into your two hit singles, I want to take a moment to acknowledge that as an artist you move and live life true to the culture. That is rare these days when we talk about the evolution and artists who see rap as Hip Hop, forgetting that rap is only one element of Hip Hop. Take this time to share about giving back to communities and your philanthropic efforts. 

Inf Grizzy: As far as me being an Artist, I been doing this for a long time. My mission besides being an artist is helping people get on their feet and guide them through life. I was the one out on the streets helping the homeless everyday nonstop. My plan was to talk to the community board and see how we can help the ones that can’t help themselves, even kids that are hanging with the wrong people getting into trouble.

MJ: After listening to your latest singles “Take My Time” and “Drip Remix” it’s fair to say you show up and show out. You display an uncanny ability not to be caged or boxed in. What is your recipe for creating both conscious records and club bangers? Talk about the importance of crossing genres as an artist? 

Inf Grizzy: “Take My Time” is a record that’s about my life, what I’ve been going through for the last 2 years. This song has a meaning to it, be careful who you associate with and watch your surroundings at all times because even a loved one will turn their back on you…”Drip Remix” is a cross record mixed with real Hip Hop artists twisting it similar to drill in a way, but in our own way. Real artists like me and others get overlooked because we’re not on the radar, yet… But we are real Hip Hop and we’re going to continue to be Hip Hop. “Drip” is a club record that’ll have the clubs lit fo sho and the DJs will love this one.

MJ: What’s next for Inf Grizzy. Can you give us a little inside scoop on upcoming releases, performances, etc.?

Inf Grizzy: What’s next is I’m working on new singles that are coming out soon. I’m locking in performances and expanding my music catalog for tours.

MJ: Let everyone know where to connect and follow you. 

Inf Grizzy: You can connect and follow me everywhere…

DLP/Frankky Smaccz "Under my feet" track features "Influence Getem"

  

After basically leaving the industry alone due to utter disgust, "Influence Getem" appears from the underworld to drop an incredible hook 🪝 on the "Under my feet" track produced by DLP, that's located on the up and coming "I RAP... He Makes Beats" project that's about to release on Halloween 🎃 (October 31st 2022). It's a masterpiece 👌🏾 work of art by Brooklyn own "Frankky Smaccz" of (Monster Nation - Bootcamp Click - Duck Down Music) umbrella. The track features legends such as "Royal Flush", "UG" of (Cella Dwellas), also *DuckDown's) "Rim Da Villain', "Jimmy Da Gent Conway", and "Pressha Dinero". This whole album is well worth a constant replay. We can expect visuals for this project in the very near future.

Regardless of the current times of chaos and disorder, we can expect to both hear, and see more from "Influence Getem", who also has a project with "Navi the North", which also features the original "Nocturnal" from New Jersey (Workhorse Music Group) of "EPMD Hit Squad", and is well known for gracing (The Dungeon Master) on (EPMD's) album back in the day.

Gmoneypayroll Drops 'The Ghost of Biggie' Album

Hip Hop Artist, Song Writer, and Producer Gmoneypayroll releases 20-track album entitled “The Ghost of Biggie.”

The Camden, NJ indie G.O.A.T enlists a selection of elite artists including Porta Rich, Shorty Dope, T Sabotage, Tech, Norf Boi, Twonn, Snugglez, King Shinche, Hanibul Hect, Ms Kesh, La Lito da Don, Maine Toast, See the Hustle, DJ Mista Goodbarz, Sencity Muzic, Fa-Milli, and Mistr Frazier for a polished and mastered piece of epic Hip-Hop.

“The Ghost of Biggie” gives listeners a no-skip track experience brimming with ingenious wordplay, storytelling, motion picture fused records, street, and club anthems, tributes, and of course Grade-A bars. Retro sets the album off and lets the world know that GMoney Payroll is raw, uncut, and emerged from trials and tribulations to cutting checks and celebrating success.

Counting Money Daily is Camden’s famed anthem that proves critics and statistics wrong. The underrated city holds lyrical crowns to many who collect bags not in lieu of drugs, violence, or guns, but in way of mics, stages, and wordsmith talents. In the Trenches validates the anthem and GMoney’s ability to win while treading through the trenches, moving further away from feds and closer to the prize.

I Remember, a more soulful track blended with modern cadences and chilling piano keys recalls being without, being counted out, and absorbing pain during the rain. But through it all GMoney stood tall and rose above the simple life. Life is Good piggybacks that theme, and celebrates his 24/7 grind, earned success, and even the shadow of clout chasers.

Never Go Broke justifies GMoney’s determination and motivation which is his family. His plan is simple, to devise a game plan, execute, and never look back. Lucicious Lyon exudes a cosmic vibe with a grandiose message. GMoney is far from average and refers to himself as a savage, a bad boy moving in silence while eyeing his prey.  That prey, or d*ckriders, clout chasers, and basic snakes get addressed in Say Dat. GMoney is on and ready to go, will these broke boys step up to the plate and level up?

Cuffin’ Season and Just Me & You are records for the ladies. GMoney has no qualms of wearing his heart on his sleeve for the right woman. The tracks shed hope that authentic love and blessed unions do exist. He keeps his bride on a pedestal to celebrate her realness and sticking by his side. Thank You Mom will water eyes as GMoney pays tribute to his first queen, his mother.  He credits her for molding him into the man he is today.

Fly Around Me is a fun track to get bottles poppin’, bring in the ladies, and show off flyness while the competition takes a seat on the sidelines. Bring it Back reiterates that but in more of a stern fashion. GMoney has been bossed up since younger days and as the Jersey G.O.A.T, he demands respect.  Fat People Rule, although a bit of comedic humor, pays homage to greats like Pun, Biggie, and Heavy D. Rightfully tailored and surrounded by belly chasers, GMoney shares those perks…

Subliminal although it serves as the album’s interlude, is one of the most powerful tracks. GMoney declares his stance and reign not only in the music scene but in life. His accomplishments cease all subliminal from SoundCloud rappers who mumble to earn likes and views. Crabs in a Barrell redefines GMoney’s destined path to greatness and reassures that no one can pull him down from his climb. Feeling Like Rocky intensifies his motivation. With his eyes on the tiger, he is not backtracking as it is not an option. His bars reflect laying in a hospital bed to curating billboard hits in the lab.

I’m Winning sums up GMoney’s independent success with no contract signatures. While others are declining, he is winning and while others are chilling, he is rising. Help depicts the irony of days when GMoney tried to ask for help but was left without. Today he can look back on those days while browsing through his music catalog, collecting checks, and sipping champagne with his ride or die.

“The Ghost of Biggie” is overflowing with eclectic tones, a kaleidoscope of pulsating tones, and the perfect blend of old meets new. Piano keys, thumbing bass, along with striking drums drive the album and heighten the raw emotions and top-notch lyricism from GMoney Payroll.  Stream “The Ghost of Biggie” and connect with GMoney Payroll below.
