Mo Beatz Once
strictly a producer, the South
Carolina-based Mo Beatz was
driven to expand his skill set
due to impatience with his
rhyming collaborators. He
developed a flow that
complemented his sparse,
booming, and melodic beats
geared for the streets, though
he continued to work with
other rappers. Just over half of
the tracks on Introduction of
da Paper Boy, released in 2013,
featured guest appearances.
The following year's Paper Boy
Reloaded raised his profile with
a list of guests -- including
Shyst Red and Mykko Montana
-- that was a little more
notable. "Bread Winner," on
which he was joined by Trina,
was issued as a single .
Vincent Jamal Staples is
an American rapper from the
Ramona Park area of North Long
Beach, California. He is a member
of the hip hop trio Cutthroat Boyz
alongside fellow Californian
rappers Aston Matthews and Joey
Fatts.
Tyler the Creator Tyler Gregory
Okonma, better known by his stage
name Tyler, the Creator, is an
American rapper, record producer,
and music video director.
