Versatility. That’s a trait that is not so easy to find in artist today. Stay in your lane and ride it til the wheels fall off is what you are advised when big business get’s involved in your process.  Then you have your artist that boast “I DO IT ALL” and that may be true, but the end results don’t show them being to successful at it. Which bring us to Detroit Emcee “STRETCH MONEY”

Yes I said EMCEE. Some may no Stretch Money for the game he kicks over music that sounds catered for the streets. Mr “Takes Money to Make Money” will rhyme circles around a majority of your favorite rappers not just locally but PERIOD. Stretch Money’s Hip Hop Hop ties run deep with his second album being produced by the legendary Nick Speed.

Which bring us to the latest EP from the Rebel Nation artist Stretch Money “THE DRUNKEN MASTER EP” produced entirely by DubMuzik, it also features world-renowned Detroit MC’s such as Guilty Simpson, Kuniva & Switfy McVay of D12, J. Nutty of Rock Bottom, Moe Dirdee, and Valid on the project.

” I’m not expecting everyone to like or admire my work. I do it for me. I don’t expect the streets to take to this project. It’s not for the streets. It’s for headphones. I guarantee it’s a vibe completely opposite of your playlist. The Drunken Master is only part of the plan. I’ve been fighting a battle of what type of sound to feed to my listeners. Instead of deciding to go one way I chose both. I can cut on the MC switch and give you this, but I also can cut the switch off and give you some street shit. I’m still tapped in”

Detroit Veteran Canc3r The God returns to smash faces, and this time he’s bringing A-minus with him, These seasoned vets trade bars over a Stranga beat, while the legendary DJ Bet provides cuts. Raw to the core and gutter, these dudes deliver. Music to grind your teeth to.

Guapo  is an indie rap artist from Detroit, MI by way of Southwest, Detroit. Guapo began taking music seriously during his freshman year of high school in Palmdale, CA.  Going back-n-forth from California to Michigan, given his background in foster care/expulsions from several schools, Guapo developed countless relationships with individuals who shared similar dreams of making it in the rap music game.

His early inspirations would come from both family & friends, having been inspired by a collective of artists known as the Commission Squad who released music and performed locally in Detroit, MI. Guapo found his home creatively with a young producer by the name of Von Classic, together they developed a sound, and his artistry was developing & his confidence as an artist began to grow.

Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances Guapo had to deal with some legal issues amid the jumpstarting of his career, and thus had to take time away from the spotlight.  Not one to let things deter him, Guapo linked with local hitmaker Helluva [credits with Tee Grizzley, Meg Thee Stallion, E-40], and released his heat-seeker record “Trenches,” which immediately put him on the radar as an artist to watch in Detroit, MI.

Consequently, he inked a management situation with Grizzley Gang Entertainment, and joined the roster including Tee Grizzley & Sada Baby at the time.  With his buzz/energy growing in the city, Guapo continued to move accordingly, and released countless records & videos to build a campaign.

Having dealt with past traumas of losing friends, being shot, and seeing the loss of his late ex-manager JB [Grizzley Gang Ent.], Guapo pours all his pain, passion, and trauma into his music. There is a ray of sunshine, Guapo is now a father of a beautiful daughter. He says affectionately, “I’m a 100% focused, because I can’t fail, she needs ME!”

At the same time, he speaks highly on how he has conversations with his listeners, he exclaims, “I don’t rap,” “I talk to my people, and share my life and experiences with them.”  His new single “Flight Mileage” is a lifestyle record, showing a day-in-the-life of Guapo’s world, production was handled by Michigan J Malcom, and the record is now available via all digital streaming platforms.
