Unsigned Heat Of The Week - Young R

In an era of hip hop dominated by dope boy music, Young R brings a breath of fresh air to the game. Born in Macon, GA, he devoloped a love and appreciation for his yet-to-be-respected city early on. Once he graduated from high school, his first mixtape, “Rough Draft Vol. 1”, was released,  placing him instantly at the forefront of Middle GA's music scene. His sophmore release, "Rough Draft Vol. 2", independently sold over 2,500 copies, setting the stage and giving him the exposure for what was yet to happen with his next upcoming single, "Anotha Planet".“Anotha Planet” would spark millions of Myspace plays and Youtube Views, thousands of digital downloads and a business negotiation with Jive Records which would cause a verse from multi-platinum artist Lil-Wayne to be recorded for the song. Far from being a dummy, Young R is a recent Engineering school graduate with a bachelors in Industrial Management to fall back on. After the success of his most recent mixtape, "I Love Money" (which you can preview below after the jump), Young R is currently working on his senior mixtape, "Rough Draft, Vol. III". As seen on the "Rough Draft, Vol. III" cover, Young R is determined to live up to his motto, “nice guys don’t finish last”!

Unsigned Heat Of the Week - Joe "F'n" Cool

Dubbed as "Lousiana's hero", and no, not Lil' Wayne or FEMA, Joe Cool has emerged on the scene of underground hip-hop strong with the release of his new tape, "Mixtape for no f'n Reason". Joe Cool had been rapping for a while when Austin Beck Hill discovered his fresh style that brings you elements of rappers such as Lupe and Drake when listening to his wordplay while adding his own flavor. Its not suprising to see him working on his own sounds either as he produced most of the tape (Artist/Producer combos ftw!) Joining the Entourage Music team, he is now making power moves toward taking the game by storm.
