As a dj I get a lot of underground and unsigned music. Normally I trash the crap that I get or give it to someone else. It takes a lot to impress a hardend veteran like me.
A month ago I got this email from a kid in LA. He said hes comin up and wanted to know if I thought he had what it takes. I shrugged him off for a few weeks but he kept at me. Finally I gave in and listened to some of his stuff.
Rogan's music is filled with spirit and hope. His messages are not thugy or gangster and he mentions his family doubting him and everyone telling him to quit and go to college instead.
I would describe his music as a mix between 2Pac, Eminem, and Kanye. His producer deserves a pat on the back too. The beats are all elegantly put together and the tracks are mixed close to perfection.
I have been listening to the same 4 songs for the last 6 hours and its not getting old at all. My favorite track being "Fast Lane (Darkest Days)"
