OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: THE "RAP AND SMOKE" CYPHER - COMING SOON!!

THE "RAP AND SMOKE" CYPHER IS PRESENTED BY CT CORPORATE TAKEOVER AND B.S.T RECORDS! 

WE HAVE RECORDED THE FOOTAGE AND ARE EDITING NOW!

ARTISTS ON THE "RAP AND SMOKE" CYPHER INCLUDE:

SEES / HIGH PRIEST /FNX / KID KARMA / JOHNNY HAZE 

 SCARZ / D-22 / TREY TUCK / JYNX / JOSH BLIN

Why these artists?
These artists where hand selected for various reasons beyond the obvious, being that they are all amazingly talented Emcees! Beyond their lyricism and creativity all these artists recognize and support other artists, understand the value of networking and are committed to their craft. In the music business its important to have something to bring to the table, every artist on this cypher does that. I create opportunities like this to find the best of the best both on and off the mic. You will be amazed at the level of talent in CT and on this cypher!!

Why a cypher?
Independent artists are often at a disadvantage when competing against commercial mainstream platforms, especially radio. Getting mainstream radio exposure forces artists to create songs that are commercially viable, read the trends and engineer music to appease not only their fans or listeners but labels, PD's, A&R's, and everyone involved in the "business" aspect of the industry. A cypher on the other hand has no intention of reaching radio or other extremely competitive mainstream platforms, instead it maximizes online platforms, such as blogs and social media to gain exposure and go viral. It allows artists to escape the "commercial box" and really display their lyrical ability. It also promotes unity among rappers and a healthy competitive desire to out rhyme artists you respect. These artists all know and respect one another and I hope this motivates everyone to bring their A+ game!

I will be doing an extended post for each of these artists over the next few weeks so be sure to check back and learn more about each of the artists featured on the "Rap And Smoke" cypher. To introduce all the artists I have included their videos below, get familiar, this is history in the making!!
