"To be independent, selling out shows across the country and become a top trending topic on twitter, this is one dream unsigned artists everywhere want to be real. Travis Porter has done all of that, plus more.
On this week's edition of Where Is Hip Hop? Randy and I discuss the movement that is Travis Porter. The trio recently released a new mixtape Distant Cousins. I'm loving it and Randy has crowned it the best album of 2010. What's interesting about this collaboration is it seems more different artists running in separate lanes are coming together to release material. Raleigh, NC's Tab-One (of Kooley High) recently released Monster's Ink with Bay-Area emcee Lefty and 9th Wonder has two collab albums this year as well (with Murs and David Banner).
Last, Randy drops the announcement about The Almost Famous Show: Columbia, SCedition, presented by Versus Entertainment Group and Million Dollar Dreamz. The event is coming Tuesday June 1 at Dreams and features performances from Boss G, Lil Brod, warrenJae, Mista Taylor, TrapSTAR plus more. SC, what up though. That night is gonna be on 10." Nanci O
