Meyhem Lauren is a Queens bred lyricist with a penchant for gritty yet lavish wordplay. Born and raised in the "Golden Era" of the New York rap scene, he is a student of quality street music. This past year has been a whirlwind for the Mc, at the 2012 SXSW Music Festival, he, along with his Outdoorsmen brethren (Ag Da Coroner & Action Bronson) composed what is now stacking up to be a top rap project of the year (Respect The Fly Sh*t). Recorded fully in an embassy suites hotel room, with Executive producer's Harry Fraud and Tommy Mas, Lauren crafted a 12 track Gem in "Respect The Fly Sh*t" and since its release in June 2012, Meyhem has been tearing up the New York rap scene and getting nationwide radio-play.

Big Baby Ghandi BBG is something like the Bengali Meek Mill, mostly because BBG spends all his time screaming into the mic. With a co-sign from Himanshu aka Heems of Das Racist, Gandhi got a big buzz going this year, culminating with the release of his NO1 2 LOOK UP 2 mixtape. Ghandi is on the rise and is loved by the hipster sect & the purists alike. His production style is diverse and he is definitely someone who brings his A-Game to the stage.

26 year young & Greedhead affiliated Rapper Aleksey "Lakutis" Weintraub is a quintessential New York dirt-bag: growing up uptown with his Russian mother, he spent his formative years hanging around other first-generation Americans, like his friends Himanshu Suri and Ashok Kondabolu, who would later form Das Racist. His style is provocative & his "I'm In The Forest" mixtape has received tremendous acclaim. Lakutis' buzz is through the roof right now and he's one of New York's premiere live acts.
