Mixtape: @TheRealSim1 "Birth of a Monster" @OvertimeHustlin

Before Sim Kapone releases his long awaited debut album "Summer Of Sim" through GT Digital Distribution we throw it back to move forward. Gunnabeatz and Overtime Hustlin Present "Birth of a Monster" which is an audio look back at the young unrefined Sim Kapone. More On S.I.M Kapone S.I.M Kapone is a versatile artist who never intended to pursue music. His heart and focus was fixed on football, however the talented athlete was forced to retire that dream when he was faced with a serious injury. Shortly after this devastating event, his close friends decided to form a group. The determination that he had to be the best in the group spawned him to constantly hone his skills. His hunger and determination not only made him the best in his family but also a top-contender in his state. S.I.M Kapone faced several other life struggles that later would serve as the fuel that he needed to elevate his lyrics far past the realms of superficiality. His family suffered from poverty and by the age of four, his father was sentenced to life in prison. The rising star lived in several cities and feels that the culture and lessons learned from each place helped to mold him into a well-rounded artist. He resided in Long Beach, Anaheim, Pasadena, Norwalk, Downey, and Paramount. His most pivotal musical influences includes legendary hip-hop artists such as: Big Pun, Big L, 2Pac, Biggie Smalls, Nas, Mos Def, Mobb Deep, The Lox, Wu Tang Klan, Ice Cube, DJ Quik, Snoop Lion, Suga Free, E-40, Too Short, and more. “I love music. It’s my form of release…whatever I need to get off my chest I put it down on the mic. I mean, why not be heard and get through to someone who is going through the same struggle,” he said. The seasoned artists possess the ability to captivate his fans through live performances. He’s performed in: Hollywood, Downtown Los Angeles, Orange, Pomona, Maywood, Burbank and is proactively expanding his talents to other markets. S.I.M Kapone has been a thriving force in the L.A underground scene for approximately a year now. Though he is newer than many of his counterparts, his lyricism and exemplary work ethic precedes them tremendously. His primary focus at this point is on his upcoming Debut Album, Summer of S.I.M, which features the legendary West Coast artist/producer, Kokane and others. You should expect nothing less than a superior future for S.I.M Kapone.

Video: @iambjustice "Dirty Mouth" s/o @Enew901 @stockstickity

Check out the latest video release from up and coming Artist B Justice "Dirty Mouth" featuring Ray Rizzy. This record was released and featured on the soundtrack of the movie "Ole Tymerz" and is avilable online. More Info On B JUSTICE B Justice always knew music would be a part of his life. Growing up in Milwaukee provided little opportunity for B to rub elbows with major artists or create those needed connections in order to make the moves he for seen in his future. Hustling by any means necessary seemed a viable option to produce the funds needed for a burgeoning music career. "I knew I had to hustle (to some degree) and make money in order to get where I wanted to be, but I wanted to hustle without going to jail. So, I started a movement called ‘Scholar Guy’ and really started focusing on other interests to make money and support the music" states B Justice. The Hunger is what led him into buying a used car dealership and launching an independent clothing line aptly named "Scholar Guy Apparel". Through these businesses, he financed his first LP "Law and Order". It was an ambitious 12 track project that showed his finesse for undeniably addictive hooks, bouncy laid back beats and ultimately, the precursor to his second feat "Scholar Life". "The Scholar Life project is my diary from my first album up to now. Everything I went through, from living on a college campus, relationships, my progression in music and my love for weed." You'll experience more than just dorm life and weed singles when you dive into the Scholar Life. It’s how B Justice lives his life as a Scholar Guy. He was smart enough to avoid the typical pitfalls of ‘hood life that trapped so many of his friends. Scholar Life I and II, are celebrations of that. Scholar Life I is an album that’s smart but not pretentious; a street album that's universal enough to catch the ears of those who aren’t from the ‘hood, and yet resonates with those that have lived that life first hand. When you take the journey into Scholar Life II, you will be given the opportunity to see the evolution of B Justice as we know it. B Justice gives a full narration of his life, merely doing and speaking about what he has encountered through his own progression. B Justice has transitioned from performing for smaller college shows and venues to traveling overseas and opening for larger artists, all while balancing everyday life. Having the ability to balance is hard to strike for any artist. For B Justice, the balance is who he is.

News: The 50 Greatest Custom Sneakers of All-Time

Once a niche segment of the hobby, customization has evolved into one of the pillars of sneaker collecting over the years. No longer are artists just painting kicks — they’re stripping down the materials and recreating silhouettes with an entirely new vision. Brands like Nike and adidas have even commissioned top customizers to work on official projects.

Further validation has been given by athletes and entertainers, who have showcased customs on some of the biggest platforms. LeBron James even wore a pair of 'Iron Man' Nike LeBron 10s by Mache when practicing for the NBA Finals in 2013.

From the early styling of Methamphibian, SBTG and Sekure D to fresh faces like JBF, Revive and Dank, custom sneakers have come a long way — here’s the 50 best. CLICK HERE
