It's Finally Here: S.O.H.H. "Atlanta's Own" Mondays!!!!!

What’s good everybody?

The main reason why I decided to re-launch SoHH.com’s Atlanta’s Own is because I know first hand how many talented, socially conscious unsigned artists there are out there, and its time for them to get their shine.

Everybody is shouting that Hip-Hop is dead, but what is anybody doing to try and save it? Well I have platform and I’m going to use it to support exactly what this site was built on—which is Online Hip-Hop! Betcha didn't know that's what S.O.H.H. originally stood for did ya?

I had a lot of music to pick from and realized in the middle of my listening session that I ran into a problem—I had too much music!!!

So I had to make one last minute change to the showcase. Instead of posting 5 songs a week, I’m only doing three. If I don’t reduce the amount of songs on one post, then it will just be too much text to read and I feel that people will grow tired of all the reading which could potentially leave some music left unheard. Surely you can understand…

SoHH Gyant's Atlanta's Own Talent Showcase Is Coming Back!!!

sohhatlantasown.jpg

Since hip-hop is in such a questionable state right now, I think what we all need is a breath of fresh air. We need artists who can spit that fiyah yet not put themselves in a box like many of today’s rappers have done.

Therefore I am re-launching Atlanta’s Own. The talent showcase, originally created to give unsigned artists a platform to get their music out there to the masses, is coming back.

The Misunderstating Of Sohh Gyant-Hill; V103's Frank Ski and Wanda; Plus Attempts to Break the Racist Clubbing Cylce!!

Before we get started I got to give a special shout out to NYC Diplomat for the love. Everything I do is for my hood and im glad y'all recognizing what I'm doing.

HEY SOHH GYANT, JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU FOR BEING THE BEST BLOGGER ON THIS SITE MAN, YOU REALLY MAKE IT FUN TO READ YOUR BLOG, AND ABOVE ALL YOU REALLY DO TALK TO US LIKE FAMILY MAN. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!

This video is almost a month old but I found it online and thought I would bring it to da family seeing that we got a lot of Young Jeezy fans who read Atlanata’s blog daily.

There are a few things that I feel need to be cleared up regarding how I feel about Jeezy. First, when I attended his concert event back in December, (as you all know) I had a bad time. As a result I reported on what my experience was just like I would have if I had a great time at his event. Though, my reporting was harsh, and I can admit that, it was the truth and more importantly it was, in my opinion, great journalism.

However, just because I had a bad experience at the “secret concert” doesn’t mean that I hate Jeezy, his music, or his new clothing line. Secondly, I don’t know Jeezy. I’ve never met him personally. I have seen him at events from afar but never had a chance to say more then two words to the rapper. But I still have a job to do and it’s a job that I take VERY seriously.

When I decided to put together this weekly showcase, I knew that it would be an explosive and innovative idea. With all of SOHH's readers who log on daily to check out what's hot in hip-hop nationally, regionally, and locally, it seemed like a natural progression for all of Atlanta's unsigned talent to get massive exposure from arguably one of the hottest spots oh the planet – SOHH's Atlanta blog.
