Mannie Fresh @ Red Bull Academy (Very Interesting)

With a record catalog long enough to fill an encyclopedia, Mannie Fresh has basically been the sound of New Orleans hip hop for the past 25 years, producing hits for NOLA staples like Lil’ Wayne, Juvenile, BG, Big Tymers, Gregory D, and bounce queen Cheeky Blakk among others. In addition, his signature marching-drum snare rolls and 808-heavy production has been picked up on and incorporated into the Dirty South canon at large.

Who Tha @#$* is Clams Casino?

Clams Casino is an upcoming producer and he takes a new,innovative route in which he reaches his audience and the rappers that get on his tracks. It’s not the most new way but the more surprising aspect is the success that eh is reaching in this manner. First time I heard of him was through A$AP Rocky’s first mixtape,which lead me to think that he was part of the A$AP mob,which is not the fact.
