Bizarre Drops Inspiring, Heart-Felt Video- “Lose Weight”
Anyone that knows me personally knows that I love Bizarre. He comes from a long line of Detroit MC’s (Esham, Danny Brown, ICP and King Gordy) who don’t fit into any particular box. His offbeat personality and earnest intentions make his latest song, titled “Lose Weight,” one of his best.
Bizarre’s latest offering documents his struggle with weight loss and the emotions he’s dealt with along the way. It’s inspiring to see a rapper show their vulnerable side and let their fans know they suffer adversity just like us.

Filthy Rockwell: Red Bull Radio Listening Party Detroit Michigan
Filthy Rockwell Releases Filthy America to Critical Acclaim
Personally, I feel that the state of hip-hop has been uninspiring over the last few years. Maybe I was spoiled by the era I grew up in; Public Enemy, Gang Starr, MC Breed, One Be Lo, Esham, Scarface, Ras Kass, Dead Prez, Wu-Tang, O.C., Cormega, Nas, and Pac are the storytellers I admired. Don’t get me wrong, there is a lot of good music being released, but there is also a lot of garbage being released. Now that any high schooler with a tattooed face can cheaply purchase a microphone, computer, and music software the game has changed. Add a Soundcloud page and voila, a generation of wannabe rappers and producers are born.

PHOTO CREDIT: YOUTUBE SCREENSHOT
WOW! I’ll admit it; I didn’t know who Mickey Factz was…how embarrassing. Luckily I saw Royce Da 5’9″ give him a repost on his Instagram account (thanks, Royce).
His latest Freestyle on L.A. Leakers is an instant classic that should have wack rappers re-evaluating their career choices. Even better than the L.A. Leakers is a freestyle he did with Funk Flex on Hot 97 where he destroys the mic for almost 9 minutes.
