Wallet Green [Video] Dont Cha
(Los Angeles, CA) - In Los Angeles, there's a lot of myths about the ways of life in the streets. There's also a lot of truth to what people say about the struggles of coming up in South Central, one of America's most notoriously dangerous inner cities.
If anyone knows the truth of the matter, its LA bred talent Wallet Green who remained neutral despite growing up just blocks away from regular gang violence and other dangerous street activity.
But with a focus to be more and having found success with the songs, "Sittin High" and "Let Me See Something" early on in his career, Wallet Green built on his early successes eventually releasing and ode to his hometown "LA" featuring RJ and Compton AV.
Now Wallet Green is prepping for his new EP, with the song "Don't Cha," produced by an Atlantic Records signed producer named "Composer" and is mixed and mastered by famed production group 1500 or Nothin.
"Right now I'm just trying get more visuals done and keep the music coming consistently. This time around I'm just looking to keep the music coming and keep the music current. I'm just at the point I just don't want to hold anything back," Wallet Green explained.
The track will be on Wallet's The Green Ticket EP, named after his Mill Ticket Music Group and his Mill Ticket Casting Agency that has been highly successful in Hollywood booking talent for artists like Drake, Tyga, Chris Brown, Billy Ray Cyrus, Kendrick Lamar and other musicians.

Paul Allen -Trap House Video
(ANTIOCH, California) - If you know about finessin', then you know about the trap and all the things that come with that world. Enter, Paul Allen a rapper well versed in the language of the streets and the life that comes with the trap lifestyle.
While not glorifying the life of drugs and trafficking but focusing more on the work ethic and a drive to be the best, Paul Allen is preparing for the release of his sequel effort Finesse Kid 2. To prepare for the release the SODMG affiliated artist is releasing his Zaytoven produced song, "Trap House."
"We shot the video live from the homie's house where we hang out at. The song is called "Trap House" so it was only right that I took it to the trap. It's just me and the homies doing what we normally do. There's traps all around the world, So on this visual I'm showing the people my version of that," Paul Allen explained
From the hoods to the 'burbs, the trap has taken over and in many ways become an influential part of Hip-Hop culture. Finesse Kid 2 is the epitome of that attitude and culture.
"Finesse Kid 2 is the sequel to the Finesse Kid project I released a few months back. This is my equivalent of Friday & Next Friday coming with the next big bang. Not putting too many features on this project but more focusing on better production this time around, Paul Allen said. "I'm presenting a more mature artist behind the mic showing my growth. I'm excited how FK2 has come out and I can't wait for the world to hear "Trap House" and the rest of Finesse Kid 2."

Amazing to see their work ethic given how much weed they smoke and lean they sip.
"I think going through the accidents and going through the 3 different times when God almost took my life def changed me. You know at this point, in my head I believe God gonna take me when he gonna take me, sowhat the f*ck am I going to sit around and think about that shit for?" So Gaudy explained. "I'm non-stop, i don't come from a rich family, this was something that just wasn't going to stop me. I mean sometimes your mind is going to get to you but I persevered. Nowadays I smoke me a blunt and get on with my day."
Again, fans of the GRE movement that post his video on their social media (Twitter, IG and Facebook) are automatically entered in a contest to win free gear from his Sin City Clothing affiliate. (Winners will be randomly selected this Friday at 4:20)

@Kipp_Stone makes XXL with "Cult Classic" #TheCoSign3
LeBron James isn’t the only thing poppin’ in Cleveland, Ohio. Newcomer Kipp Stone is starting to make a name for himself, in and out of his hometown. The 23-year-old ryhme-slinger broke out after releasing “30FTALL” and hasn’t looked back. Now he’s gearing up to release a new project that should show off his lyrical prowess. He told XXL, “Next I’m working on a mixtape called The Grand Desire. I’m just constantly busy writing and making beats; just to the top from here man. [Laughs]” Get to know Kipp Stone in this week’s edition of The Break.—Emmanuel C.M.
Name: Kipp Stone
Age: 23
Hometown: Cleveland
I grew up listening to: Mostly I would listen to anything my dad would listen to. He was heavy into music. He made music. My dad used to make super ’90s R&B music. He would listen to a lot of the classics like Earth, Wind & Fire and classic rap like Mos Def and Rakim and stuff like that. But when I finally got into rap I was listening to a lot of Eminem, Talib Kweli and of course Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, being that I’m from Cleveland. The Eminem Show was the first album I ever bought with my own money. Then eventually while watching 8 Mile I decided I’m going to start rapping and I didn’t really start taking it seriously until I dropped out of high school. I got into a really bad car accident, my grades started messing up, I was smoking and missing class and eventually I just dropped out. That was 2010. I just realized this is the only thing I’m really good at. I used to just rap on the corner for people or rap in the car, rap on the phone, that’s all I ever did.
My style’s been compared to: I’ve been compared to a lot of people, like ScHoolboy Q, Drake, J. Cole and stuff like that. I personally can’t compare myself to an artist. The artists I most relate to is your Kendricks, your Drakes and stuff like that. That’s what I’m listening to most of the time any way.
My standout records and/or moments to date have been: I would have to say the release of “30FTALL.” When I made it I wasn’t expecting it as big as it got. I made the song and everybody had heard it. It ended up on The Cosign 3, which is a really big mixtape in Cleveland because of DJ Steph Floss and Big Heff and everybody that was involved with it. It was huge for me.
My goal in hip-hop is: Well obviously to be one of the greats, but aside from that, it has to be one of the most respected hip-hop artists. Not even just on my skill alone but respect as a person. My respect for people and people respect for me is huge for me. Like a huge fanbase and people respect what I have to say.
I’m going to be the next: I would want to be the next big cult classic. When you think of a cult classic they don’t really gain a lot of commercial success or nothing like that. But everybody knows this is it, this is the guy. When you’re watching certain movies like Pulp Fiction… It’s not like a huge movie but when you mention a favorite movie you’re going to mention it. Also, I want to prove that you don’t have to be a snake to get success. I have a lot further to go but I got to where I’m at now by staying true to the people around me and staying true to what I believe. I think that’s huge.
