The Break Presents – FamousSally and YB

[ad_1] For FamousSally and YB, a close childhood friendship has blossomed into a burgeoning hip-hop career pretty much by pure happenstance. The two Atlanta natives met each other as pre-teens and by the time they got into high school, they were full-blown besties. However, they never even considered forming a rap duo until 2023.While kicking it at a recording studio in their home city back in May, FamousSally and YB decided on a whim to try their hand at making a song for the first time.

The Break Presents – 310babii

To alleviate the mental stress that coincided, he began writing poetry at age 10 in a notepad. After being impressed by his poems, Spaz's mother planted seeds within her son's mind that perhaps he should start rapping. Around that time, he also started listening closely to Kodak Black, the rhymer Rundown Spaz cites as his biggest inspiration.By the time he became a teenager, his mom's suggestion began to come to...

Through Veeze’s reputation on the mic and in the streets, he’s already seen by many as a heavyweight in Detroit’s searing rap scene. But embroidered co-signs from Lil Uzi Vert, Lil Yachty and Lil Baby on wax have recently welcomed Veeze into the mainstream airspace as well. Now with multiple markets on smash and organic support within them, his flame as an artist is truly beginning...
