Poster Boy
This guy is about a lot at the moment, had a big feature in the Guardian the other week and quite a few blogs have been posting about him. I'm not sure if i'm a big fan, but the concept is cool. He sounds and dresses like Mark Ronson.
Officer Ricky
I like Rick Ross, 'Port Of Miami' is a pretty solid coke fueled rap record. Although a lot of that love (no homo) is equated to my stay in the MI-YAYO, he's a decent rapper. Not only does Boss have 13 year-old gangster obsessed suburbanites rapping about Miami coke deals, but an incredibly cute Lykke Li is known to be a huge fan. So in an attempt to authenticate my gangster tastes, here is Lykke Li covering Officer Ross' 'Hustlin''
Lykke Li @ NTBR Part 4 - "Hustlin'" from Drew Innis on Vimeo.
Ross' past career as a Correctional Officer in the Miami-Dade County goes some what against his claims as a Carol City Cartel Drug Lord and this ousting of the past has certain undermined his credibility as a rapper.

In an attempt to salvage his career as a member of rap's elite, Ross went after 50 Cent, slewing the rapper on wax. 50's response was weak, and Ross even phoned up Shade 45 to tell some young "Hip Hop Honey" of the gossip loving variety just what he thought of Fiddy's reply. So, obviously the infamous Queen's rapper wasn't going to stand for that. In true 50 style he packed an almighty retaliation. Firstly the man who survived 9 shots, proclaimed "Rick Ross I'ma fuck your life up for fun", several days later this hilarious cartoon appeared.
