| ESSO |
 From
the beginning to the end of the interview
I felt like I was talking to someone I'd
known my entire life. Young, poised, articulate,
ambitious, educated, humble, charismatic
and talented, Esso oozes with the best qualities
a Hip-Hop supernova should possess. I'm
still trying to figure out why he's still
unsigned. With all the charm of a Harlem
boy Esso is definitely someone the ladies
will love and the fellas will identify with.
Check us out on the record....

hard to categorize or classify. Nonetheless,
we were able catch up with the Bermudian

promo tour and asked him if the buddz had
finally come around?

| Shareefa |
 Got
Reefa? The first soul sister to sign with
Disturbing the Peace/Def Jam has linked
up with the Streetz. This Newark, New Jersey
native is definitely bringing some fire
to the R&B scene. Her single "Need
A Boss" is doing really well on the
charts and radio, so we assume that her
debut cd "Point Of No Return"
should do just as well. Per Shareefa, she
doesn't prefer soulful ballads over hot
club bangers because which ever style she
choose she's bound to come strong and bring
the realness. Find out what's good with

 Some
feel that Hip-Hop is dead, but there just
may be someone out there that can represent

it needs to be. That person is Lupe Fiasco,
the Chi-Town representative who we had the
opportunity to chop it up with recently.
Even though Lupe admitted to us that there
was a time when he really wasnt feeling
everything thats Hip-Hop. Lupe is that
rapper, who has the ability to contribute
to Hip-Hop like many before him and represent
harder than most currently.
