Emcees Giving Back Toy Drive in Leimert Park

Talented L.A. Lyricists Spreading The Holiday Spirit

In the month of December, most of us are getting into the holiday spirit, trimming the tree, listening to our favorite Christmas songs and trying to find that special gift that our loved ones wants for Christmas. Many of us work extra hours just so that we can afford to have a Christmas in our households and to see the smiles and excitement on our family's and especially our children's faces.


Unfortunately, due to a variety of circumstances, there are many families that cannot afford to buy gifts and struggle just to get by day to day or there are kids that don't have families to enjoy Christmas with.

Kaos Network, located right in the heart of Los Angeles in Leimert Park, hosted a Hip-Hop showcase and toy drive event, where the cover was $5.00 dollars or bring a toy for entry. The proceeds and toys will be used for the upcoming Toy & Clothes Giveaway Winter Block Party, hosted by Project Blowed at 4343 West Leimert Park Boulevard on December 16th.

The Hip-Hop showcase featured some of the hottest upcoming young emcees in the Greater Los Angeles area representing Inglewood, Leimert Park, Compton, Pasadena and more.

The showcase started off with emcees Black Diamond "Soul Power" and J-Ann from Compton "Get Motivated," songs that promote positivity and how the power of music has saved their lives.

Drama Ganza from Cincinnati, Ohio, currently residing in Inglewood, stole the show, bring a lot of energy with her stage presence and boss chick lyrics with her song "The Girl Next Door."

Next, Nu Nu Young Hot Celeb from California and Chicago  representing L.O.U.D. Pact  continued to hold it down for the ladies with her song "Dreams."

Another emcee to look out for is a brother that goes by the name Russian Roulette. Representing Inglewood to the fullest with his song "Inglewood Salute" and acapella freestyle. His metaphors  and similes remind you of a young Ghostface Killa from the Wu Tang Clan.

Presidential Smoke and Radisrad rocked the mic as well with their underground sound, rhyming about relationships they have been through with women.

There were many more emcees that were doing their thing and made the night a great success. Los Angeles definitely has talent across the city with different styles and swag holding down the west coast and the future of Hip-hop. It was great to attend a positive movement and see how Hip-Hop can make a difference in the community in a positive way.
