BIg Heff (@BIGHEFF) giving big opportunity in St.Louis

The Back Drop to the Big Heff Industry Tour at Studio 618

 

With so many artist events happening at the same time in St.Louis, Studio 618 was in fire Nov. 20th with special guest, Vice President of the Nerve Djs, and current Def Jam scout Big Heff. The crowd consisted if artist from different parts of the Midwest including Cleveland,Ohio Springfield,Illinois, and of course the 314 & 618 was in the building.

By the end of the night Big Heff heard a total of 12 acts inviting 3 to perform in Kansas City,Mo the following day, plus giving the same artist placements on top hip hop site Allhiphop.com, the artist he chose from the talented bunch included St.Louis rap group/labels Cash Zone Ent, DBC Ent and Springfield,Illinois artist Deezy the Paper Boy.

Overall Big Heff was impressed by most acts in the building. Only negative note was that many artist lacked promo material (cds, fliers, merchandise), a few artist where nervous to network with new faces, and artist getting to the venue late. Big Heff is expected back in St.Louis Late February early March and is likely to return to Studio 618.

Riley B. Jack’N for beats and takes $5000.00 at Loft

After about 6 weeks at different locations across the St.Louis area, 1500 auditions, 50 semifinalist, and a tough top 10, North County’s Riley B. leaves the loft with 5k.

The top 10 included Bars from Ray the Kidd, YC, Blu No E, The Truth, and Riley B, and Dj Drama’s favorite Buddy Love, and the opening round was filled with fumbles, and new first, and new rules for the Jack’N for beats brand. Including a scare that some thought was staged initially from Buddy Love who had heart complications, and had to leave the competition after scoring the highest score during the 1st round. After his exit Dj Drama and other judges decided that the top 5 would be a top 4, eliminating 2 people before the final round, which was a 1st for the brand.

Second round selection included Riley B, the Truth, who was the only female to make it to the top 10, YC, and more artist, and once the numbers where reduced to 2 some in the crowd questioned the decision of the judges.

Final round Riley B. and the Truth were the last ones standing both assigned to spit 2 minutes and 30 second, with Riley B going first and the Truth going last. Midway through her turn Riley B. started signaling that he won the money as truth fumbled the beat and couldn’t recover, but even after that the judges gave both Riley and the Truth one more effort to win the 5 thousand, with Truth going 1st and RIley B  2nd, with no beat, Truth spoke with more ego, Riley B. spoke with more heart, walked away with a check 5K and the title of Jack’N for beats champion.
