Throughout the years, Ohio has gained an increasing amount of regodnition for its musicians. Among the many genres to come out of the Buckeye state, hip-hop is one that has especially been thriving. Massilon rapper Charlee Parker is looking to grow that momentum with his specially-crafted brand of music.

Parker has worked quite some time to reach a level suitable not only in the eyes of today's hip-hop fans, but in his own. One listen to any of his tracks, like the "Polo"-produced "Lookin Up", "Black Hole", or "Renovation", and it becomes ever-so-clear that he's far from your typical. His rhymes are conscious, but not so much that the average guy on the streets can't relate. He speaks real life, and those around him, and throughout Ohio, beginning to see the full vision!

His latest single, "Dey Know", is on the verge of solidifying his position in the game as a new artist. The production is slick and he's spittin' as raw as ever. We would love for you to take a moment and check out the new single below! We prodly introduce you to Charlee Parker!
