A group to listen to is YMCMB (Young Money Cash Money Billionaires). There several talented artists like Drake, Nicki Manaj, Bird Man, and the CEO of the record label Lil Wayne. I enjoy listening to their music because are all Rap artists. Also the incorporate different styles of music together like R&B and Rock as well as hip-hop. Some of the songs are about their life and how they made it to become a big celebrity. I mostly enjoy listing to Lil Wayne’s No Ceilings album, because it has a nice flow and his rhymes are nice. In Drake’s song Headlines “ I might be strung-out on compliments, over-dosed on confidence” I thought it was a very well thought out song. In most of these songs you can see how ambitious this group is starting as an actor on Degrassi to a Rapper of the Year award winner in 2010. Also in Lil Wayne’s song How to Love, he switched his whole style from a hard-core lyricist to a slow summer jam. I believe YMCMB has become a great influence in the hip-hop throughout this past decade. Critics say that Lil Wayne nearly ruined his career when he introduced his heavy metal song Prom Queen, it was way out of tune and he lost many fans for a while including me. Over all I believe that YMCMB is going to become one of the best of the best artists that was introduced to hip-hop. If they continue in this progressive manner the will become hip-hop hall of famers.
