Houston's Rob G Continues Trend Of Southern Hospitality With Free Mixtape Download

Houston,TX. (Top40 Charts/ Rob G Official Website) - With artists like Chamillionaire and Lil Wayne dropping mixtapes for free download to fans, Houston's self-proclaimed 'next Latin Legend', Rob G has decided to use that platform to address the debate on the current state of Hip-Hop and the hostility being aimed at Southern rap as the cause of its demise. With two successful mixtapes in the last 4 months already under his belt (Rob G Campaign Volumes 1 and 2) and his single Reppin My Block ft. Slim Thug and Lil Keke getting major spins in Houston, San Antonio and Austin, this MTV's Roc-A-Fella Freestyle Battle Top 10 finalist and KBXX (Houston) Freestyle Champion feels it is time to drop his own particular brand of lyricism and realism on the game. With that in mind, Rob G will make his latest mixtape offering The State of the Streets pt. 1, available to fans for free download beginning Monday, February19th from his website.

As a Houstonian, Rob G takes exception to the constant barrage of slugs being aimed at his fellow Southerners and feels that lyrical content in general is at an all-time low. "I have been working hard on my Latium/Universal Republic debut album The Inauguration, and that drops later this year, but this couldn't wait. There are some things that needed to said right now. Hip-Hop isn't dead or alive." Rob G says. "It's just sleeping. It's waiting for someone to wake it up and breathe life back into what once meant so much more than radio hits or gimmicks. I don't blame fans for what Hip-Hop has become. They have merely accepted what the game has been force feeding them."

With more in common lyrically with artists such as Scarface or Chamillionaire than with the latest fad, Rob G feels he is the antidote to what is ailing the Hip-Hop game. "I represent the streets. I represent the people, but more importantly, I represent what's real." he emphatically tells us. "It's time for Change. It's time for the voice of the next generation of Hip-Hop to be heard."
