My man Emilio first bursted on the scene two years ago, quickly becoming a fixture in the NY hip-hop circuit with one of 2009’s most stellar freshman offerings, the “Recession Proof” mixtape. The Rochester native’s 2010 follow up with fellow Roc City native Green Lantern, “The Natural”, was quickly embraced by all the major hip-hop blogs and spawned the under ground banger “Bold and Arrogant” produced by M-phazes.

On the backbone of this mixtape Emilio has created a strong following amongs the hip-hop cognoscenti. Again teaming with his mentor Green Lantern, Emilio is currently working on his forthcoming mixtape, which is yet to be titled. Emilio is ready to smash the world with his unique brand of rap acrobatics and lyrical skill. Cats like Emilio give me hope that rap music can still be creative, clever and innovative, as opposed to the same old same. I recently had the pleasure of blessing Emilio with a track for his mixtape, and all I can say is that my man did my beat justice and then some. With music by the Justice League, Will Power, the amazing M-phazes, myself and Nottz, expect big things from the kid Emilio in the near future.

Here’s a few links to the young homie’s hustle, give him a listen, the kid’s nice with his.
