I need some feedback and input from the Siccness community about the current state of the Kansas City rap scene. What I'm looking for is new artists and producers, that are making major moves in the town, RIGHT NOW!! Input from the Siccness community, local record stores (7th Heaven, Wax Factory, Keepin it Real), local club DJs, and the streets will help separate the "go-getterz" from the "charity cases". I would at least like to document the work of at least ten solid rap artists and/or producers for this new Murder Dog Magazine feature on Kansas City. Also, in the past Murder Dog KC features, there was a strong perception that the KC scene was a Bay "spin-off". Well I told Black Dog that KC was kinda past that era, and have developed our own sound with more of a Southern sound musically, and lyrically kinda to the East. I used Chauncey Clyde, the group HiPo4mance, and Donte Slusha as some examples of the kind of "new" artists that are dropping albums, doing shows, filming videos, and selling records. We know the history of KC (Tech, Vell, Rich, RDV, Popper, etc.). Now, it's time to recognize the present and future. Thanks for the feedback and i'll be getting at all featured artists personally.
