I got the pleasure to check out this nice EP from Cleveland’s own Megadon216 called “The Edgewater EP”. Edgewater,which is the name of one of the parks that is situated by Lake Erie here in Cleveland, OH. The EP, is representing an alternative brand of Hip Hop called “Surf-Hop” and is based off Megadon’s alternative ideology “The Seven Laws of Surf Hop”.

Starting off with the intro song, Pantheon Intro, which catches your attention as soon as the base drops, which creates an anxious feeling to make you want to hear more. Megadon216 who states that he wants to “Be where the champions be” sets a tone expectation to see what will Mega deliver next! “Can’t Stop This Wave” that is produced by Blair Neff is a song that is a radio hit! I found myself playing it back to back LOL On the song “Gnarley” I truly love the hook on this single that is produced by Melrose Zee. Thhe song with a feature including a singer named, Esther Fitz, whose voice I have already fell in love with for her voice is something different than the norm!

Overall, I truly loved the vibe of this EP! I like how everything is composed & even though, Megadon216 is a lyrical artist, he made sure to keep listeners riding the wave he has created from, beginning to the end with the goal of being the best! Megandon216 made sure to shout some people out on the single “Show My Love” including 216 The Beat’s own Cream of the Crop!!! Here’s the track listing of the EP:

1.) Pantheon Intro (Prod. By JRock Beats)
2.) Can’t Stop This Wave (Prod. By Blair Nerf)
3) Gnarly (Prod. By Melrose Zee)
4) Like You Ft. Esther Fitz (Prod. By E Haynes)

Afternoon Loves,

I was recently invited to attend a Private Listening Session for the releasing of “Trapp Classic”; A production from World Famous DJ- DJ Brad.

DJ Brad is an International celebrity DJ and Producer. He has been in the entertainment industry for several years. He, along with artist Cupreme teamed up to bring us Trapp Classic.

Trapp Classic highlights the artist “Cupreme”. His inspiration behind the album is his experiences grinding and “trapping” to make it to where he is today. Cupreme has built his brand New Money Productions from the ground up. He was humble about his success and he has only been rapping professionally for 2 years.

My favorite songs includes: “Out Da Dow”, “I Just Wanna”, and “Trenches”. I would compare Cupremes music to the 90s era of Project Pat, and  8 Ball & MJ-G. You could assume from listening to his music that he has been through alot of struggle to get to his platform of success.

This event was held at Mass Appeal Boutique; A local Contemporary Men’s Clothing and Sneaker boutique. Mass Appeal is a family owned business, and the owner Michelle which everyone calls ‘Auntie’  is very detailed and has excellent customer service.

Mass Appeal is a host for many meet and greets featuring famous names such as Dae-Dae, K-Camp, Stevie-J, Trae the Truth, DJ Luke Nasty and many more. The store is big on having people play on the “Kicks Master”; a game in which you are timed to try and win a pair of fresh kicks. It’s very entertaining to watch the machine defeat people as they continue to play over and over. Only a select few have won.

Check out Mass Appeal in store at 2280 Chesire Bridge Rd. Atlanta, GA 30324. Also follow them on Instagram @MassAppealATL.
