Henok – That Fucking Guy

Henok Achido grew up in a musical home in the Southern parts of Sweden, purchasing his first vinyl with his weekly allowance at the age of 8. At the age of 17, Henok featured on number one hit single and grammy nominated song ‘Mina Hundar’ by Swedish rapgroup Fattaru, which resulted in numerous performances in most Scandinavia countries but although the outcome and response for Henok was massive, he still didnot feel satisfied with the mindstate and lacked maturity and the preparation to be the complete musician. After, Mina Hundar, Henok dropped out of highschool and moved to Stockholm to continue record and feature songs but still didnot feel that his timing was right. Late 05 and after creating several high quality songs and being mostly pushed by his younger brother to create music, he decided to take the big step in to the light of music. Today, Henok Achido is known for being a bilingual artist plus the combination of unique flow, determination, cockiness & inventive word play describes Henoks’ main characteristics best.

Check below for Henok’s video for, “Million Dollar Baby,” and more info about him.

Artist Spotlight: Theo

Theo – “T.V. Show”
Theo – “Superstar”
Theo – “Something For Me”

Bio: With the new generations of emerging artists looking uncertain, there
are few blessed with substance and talent. Among those prominent in view
is, Theo. The Providence, R.I. native is here to offer versatility &
timelessness to the music industry.

Recent artists mimic the previous successes of past music individuals,
who offer no form of self identity to the music industry, “they seem to
be afraid of themselves”, says Theo. Coming from a musical background Theo is also a well known DJ. His passion as a DJ helped him grow a strong appreciation for music, “in the
80’s & 90’s you had people like RUN from Run DMC, Dr. Dre, Erick Sermon
& Jermaine Dupri who all, besides being artists, DJ’d as well as
produced, it wasnt an issue for them. We also have that now with artists
like Hi-Tek, Kanye West & Lauryn Hill who all are multi-talented.”

Music that evokes emotion, passion & is embraced by the masses is what
is called for. Theo combines diversity, swagger with rhymes & harmonies.

With style, taste, incredible wordplay & vocal range, Theo is in a class
all by himself.

JON HOPE BIO:

Many critics suggest that “Hip-Hop is dead” due to the new artists’ lack of originality and substance. With everyone focused on ring tones and publicity rap beefs, one could only ‘hope’ for a change for the better. Look no further than lyrical savior, Jon Hope, whose inspiring words and delicate flow serve as food for thought to Hip-Hop fans alike. Jon Hope was born in Providence, Rhode Island, a city not known for its Hip-Hop scene. However, his skills have caught the eyes of many as he has been featured in some of the music industry’s most distinguished publications.

Mercy718@gmail.com
Myspace: Showemnomercy

Mercy – Alright

Mercy – Triumph

Mercy - Freedom Of Speech

Mercy – Best Foot Forward

Mercy – Faded

You begged for it. You prayed for it. Here it is in the form of an emcee. His name is Mercy.

Mercy is one of the finest and brightest upcoming artist in Hip-Hop. This Brooklyn bred songwriters’ soul stirring, heart wrenching street tales displays Hip-Hop in its purest, rawest form. His recently released street album “Mercy Me: The Journey” was lauded for its stark realism and truths of life. Mercy takes the listener on a lyrical odyssey that displays the ills, the wills, the wont’s of “the hard working, everyday man”. The message of life, death and everything in between is conveyed on bangers such as “Light It Up”, “Let The Dollars Circulate” and “Believe”. Mercy has performed at various venues in New York City such as The Pyramid, Sputnik, Mo Pitkins and The 5 Spot Supper Club to name a few.

Sometimes we get what we ask for. We asked for mercy and Mercy is what we finally have. Follow Mercy. Follow him on his journey, the journey of life.

You guys were ruthless with the last new artist spotlight, let’s see what you have to say about Mercy. Comments will only get deleted if they have nothing to do with the artist, honest opinions are welcomed.
