Damien Scott:
That’s exciting to have the No. 1 rapper when he’s the No. 1 rapper headline the Super Bowl Halftime Show is incredible
Kyle Denis:
This was not an album made to be embraced by country if that was the case it would sound very, very different.
Trevor Anderson
Alright what’s up fellas?
Damien Scott
What’s crackin’?
Trevor Anderson
It’s been a busy set of weeks for us in particular here at Billboard, if you haven’t it checked out. Make sure you check out all across our socials and our website, we had our R&B/Hip-Hop Power Players event coming through last weekend. Multi-day event, we had power players itself honoring the biggest executives and movers and shakers in the R&B and hip-hop world. We had a concert on Friday with BigxThaPlug, BossMan Dlow and Teezo Touchdown out there.
Damien Scott
Who killed it! I was, I just gotta say, I thought Teezo was gonna do well, but when he came out with the LL COOL J fit, I was like this motherf—er is on some other sh-t.
Trevor Anderson
Teezo is ready to be that sort of performing rockstar, you can tell it’s part of the DNA code for him.
