Dope Artist Of The Week: Propaganda
Propaganda
When you're an underground artist or someone that the public is unfamiliar with, that is more the reason to rock a show like it's your last. Throughout the history of hip hop we've heard the stories of opening acts rockin' out a show better than the headliner because at that point in an artist's career it's all or nothing. Well I was at a popular hip hop event called Flavor Fest in Tampa, Florida back in 2008 and I don't know if the crowd knew who Propaganda was but I sure wasn't familiar with his music. But his stage presence was off the chain. He got the crowd hype while he got more hype. The energy he gave was the energy he received from the concert goers. My wife and I liked him instantly for some reason, not to mention that he's a dope emcee.
Rockin' the dreads like he's straight out of one of the 5 boroughs in NY, Propaganda isn't your average west coast rapper. Every song isn't the laid back sound that you would hear on a Snoop or Dre album. If you were a fan of hip hop back in the early 90's then I would compare Prop the likes of Souls of Mischief, The Pharcyde, even Black Peas before they crossed over into pop culture. I like how my man is versatile in his rhyme scheme. On the cut, "Feel Me", he spits a couple of bars in Spanglish and makes it sound hot, I might add. If I knew how to type in Spanglish then I would but for now just check him out on his myspace to hear the joint (lol). This type of creativity is what's missing in hip hop right now. Too many cookie cutter artists our here with the same rhyme flow. I think Prop used to be a school teacher as well. Now don't you wish you had a teacher this cool when you were in school?
