Wat it do loyal readers ya already know how I gets down, I bring U all the Raw & Real yeah DjBigO317 style hahaha. Today im featuring a Real Layed back Artist from Cali, Naw Naw maybe ya don’t understand me this brother here I have had the pleasure of working with a few years ago. His name is “Marnieside” he is a Yung O.G from Watts. He is a student of the game who has seen it all, yeah i said Watts,Cali. Shit aint no joke out there. He from the same hood as Tyrese & Jay Rock to name a few artists & movie stars.
I meet Marnieside thru a mutual friend & I invited the brother to
fly out to Indianapolis,Indiana. So he could go out on a 30 city promo
tour thru out the Midwest & the Southeast. One of the hardest cities
to gain respect in when it comes to music was Atlanta,Ga. Everyone says
we southern folks talk different but Marnie had everyone guessing when
he performed at Sam Stone Studios over in Mechanicsville,Ga next to the
Atlanta Braves stadium. All I can say that was a Rough Crowd, but at the
end he won everyone over with his performance. Oh yeah he had a single
ft.Young Jeezy called “Make Money” I made a few calls to Sirius Xm radio
& got him played on the a few shows from Shade45 & Hip Hop
Nation.
