Currently a student at Buffalo State College, songstress/emcee Wise Mecca learned to articulate pain and struggle through her music from the cold calculated streets of Buffalo . Over soulful production from DTR producer Natwheat she touches not only social, cultural, and political topics but also average everyday issues that today's women face.
Buffalo born, bred, and educated artist Rhyson (Reason) Hall has built his lyrical display around the economical and political torments of the city that he loves. His debut 12' single 'STILL RAW' is scheduled to hit US and Canadian radio at the end of October .
Both DTR artists are masterful in the art of entertainment better known as Hip Hop. The pair has performed at the UB Spring Fest, the Kings and Queens of the Iron Mic in Cleveland, the Rap Up the Vote High School tour, and opened for artists like Raekwon and Ghostface of Wu Tang Clan , the Legendary Kool G Rap, RA the Rugged man, and Snoop Dogg; just to name a few.
