G Will's work includes numerous mixtapes and albums, plus features for other artists such as Lace Leno, Bueno, and other Sac artists.

Deleon(Day-lee-own) Deleon's first album, Bound For Greatness was released with his partner in crime, Kennylocco (together known as The Usual Suspects). Deleon paints pictures of real life with an underlying sense of humor throughout many of his songs. He always has a verse ready...whenever someone in the studio needs a verse for their song, we can count on Deleon to have a verse ready for whatever the situation calls for. more info
Kennylocco(Kenny-loco) Kennylocco survived the craziness of growing up in Compton, CA, and many of his lyrics explain what it was like trying to escape the street life. Kennylocco brings back the raw, edgy truth present in early gangsta rap. His storytelling is colorful, and his deep, booming vocals command attention. What else would you expect from the "6-foot-5, 306 pound bully" from Compton?more info
Emily Somple(Miss MLE) This Norcal R&B singer has been training her vocals since she was born. She's been schooled in R&B, Hip-Hop, Rock, Country and Gospel. Her strong, powerful voice always seems to suprise those who hear it.

With her talent, training, and great attitude, Miss MLE is on the right path to succeed.
Don Changolini 4000 "West Coast Gumbo" and "Gangsterific". Those are the terms Don Changolini 4000 uses to describe his sound and style. Combine his penchant for networking (he's collaborated with the likes of San Quinn, Keak, Mad Dog, Kreep, Crest Creepers, Lil Coner, and Tito B) with the fact that he is the President and CEO of Thizz Latin Sacramento Valley, and you get one one of Norcal's elite artists. The road wasn't always paved in gold, however, as he dealt with incarcerations that hindered his artistic output. All barriers aside, his 2005 release, "114% Game" was a success. His most recent project, "Extended Family" (release 5/5/09), features such artists as Keak, Quinn, Kreep, Big Oso, and many more. Always expect big things from Don Changolini 4000.
Greedy Cuzz Greedy Cuzz is originally from Sacramento. Like most rappers from Sac, he cites Keak, Mob Figgaz, C-Bo, and Brotha Lynch Hung as some of his influences. Perhaps his biggest influence is his older brother Speedball, who lit the fire in him to start his own career. While Speedball was putting out albums in the mid-90's, Greedy Cuzz was freestyling with G Will on a karaoke machine, honing his craft. His lyrics are raw and real, stemming from his life experiences. With a long list of collaborations (Keak da Sneak, G Will, Yaberation, Kreep, BJM, and Dre Nutt to name a few), fresh material, and the drive to succeed, Greedy Cuzz is focused on being the #1 rapper out there.
Yung Kev Yung Kev got his start singing at the age of 4. over 20 years later, he has honed his skills to the point where rappers everywhere solicit his vocals for their projects. He cites R. Kelly, Usher, and Mac Dre as influences. Most people agree that he sounds like the lead singer from Jagged Edge. He thinks that smooth and sexy define his style. One listen to his music and you'll agree with them all.
Speedball BABY! "Speedball-baby!" is a GrownAzzGangsta that you can bet will always bring creative, versatile lyrics, and a unique vocal style. Speedball's influences include Dr. Cornell West, Dead Prez, Askari, X-Raided, G Will, and Yung Kev. He got his start in the late 80's with Techni-Crew. His song "Enter the 9-1-6" got heavy radio play in the early 90's. He took a break from rapping to focus on family in the mid-90's. He recently came back with a better understanding of the business, and a wealth of experiences to write about. His past includes collaborations with King Dre D, Bowlegs, I-Knight, Brotha Lynch Hung, Mixxula, and Crunch. His future will undoubtedly bring more success.
Baba Black Sheep "All my life I've felt that my place in the world is center stage, no matter what stage it is..."
Baba Black Sheep, originally from Oroville ("The Ville"), currently calls Mackramento, CA his home. He claims Biggie, Scarface, E40, Suga Free, and Nas as his main influences. He got his start in 1995 with his cousin Young Bandit. When Biggie caught his attention in 1997, he decided to step up his game to new heights. A man with a sound like Ant Banks and Richie Rich, he uses the terms "Ready, No Homo, One Hundred, Coo, Crazy, Swagga" when describing his style. Expect big things from Baba Black Sheep, aka B Anthony

He looks to collaborate with the hottest California rappers, and one day be the best.

Cris Kenyon
DMJ
Cris Kenyon&DMJ
A love of hip hop and a desire to make their own music were the common threads that first brought DMJ and Cris Kenyon together. They first met on MySpace when DMJ (Dark Mark Johnson) contacted Kenyon and expressed an interest in collaborating on a song. They freestyled a bit on the phone and found they liked each other's style of rapping.
Deciding to work together, they met for the first time and both artists came away impressed. DMJ played some of his beats and it was the high-energy "Beat In My Trunk" that instantly caught Kenyon's attention. "Beat In My Trunk" became the duo's first lyrical collaboration and the timing could not have been better. A short time later, Johnson was added to the ticket for a hip-hop show at the popular Chico night club, Lost on Main. He invited Kenyon to perform the songs they had crafted and the whole set was an immediate success. In one night, Kenyon and Johnson had gone from a newly formed writing team to an up-and-coming on-stage sensation.
Though their writing styles are diverse, wordsmith Kenyon's complex compositions mesh well with DMJ's "street-lyrical" phraseology. They are young, full of potential, and have the capability to help put West Coast rap back on the radar.
Frank C. Frank C is a lyrical giant with impeccable delivery. Some of the catchiest lyrics you'll ever hear come from his pen and pad. As much as he exudes raw talent on the mic, his true calling will one day be as a producer for other artists. Every artist he works with leaves the studio sounding better.
Mister
Mister is a lively character who brings a lot of energy and is our main hyphie man. He has the ability to rap extremely fast and has been compared to the very popular rapper, Mystikal.
A1
A1 is another hyphie rapper who gets the crowd moving during shows. He always brings out the best in other artists while in the studio and has been featured on many Seanessy songs. We hope to continue working with A1 and help guide him to stardome.
