How to write about Hip Hop part 3

There are a lot of hot new producers coming out of the Thizz Camp. Let me introduce you to Gennessee. Gennessee was born in Berkeley, CA & grew up in Brooklyn, New York. He came back to the Bay when he was 19 years old and started focusing on the music industry real tough. When he first started everybody use to say he had an East Coast flavor. He hooked up with his boy Cosmo, who plays all kinds of instruments. They both collaberate together to make the sound they have now. Gennessee has his own label called “Noble House” and he has done a lot of production for the Thizz Camp. He has an album he rapped and produced on with M.I.S.T.A.H. F.A.B. He say’s he’s been rapping and producing for over 10 years and has over 7 albums done with over 400 songs. His attention recently has been on producing, engineering, and being a mentor to artists & feeding his family. We all know them kids got to eat. He’s been with the Thizz Camp since Mac Dre came out with the album “Ronald Regan” in 2003. He produced half of the tracks on that. He produced a song for Cuban Linx called “Let it Go” which is on DJ Crooks album. He produced a song called “Do or Die” for the group Do or Die, and Twista and the Speed Knot Mobstas both from Chicago. He’s done production for local artists like Turf Talk, The Team, Too Short, Yukmouth, and San Quin. Watch out for Gennessee, Noble House, and Thizz going hard in 2005.
