Scottie Flippen is performing Saturday, October 9th in the Sonicbids Showcase
In an era where the ability to create digital music has opened the doors for pretty much anyone with a computer and a microphone to record an album, the market has been flooded with mediocrity. A lot of people would rather drive in silence than turn on their radio to hear what the industry is putting out. After touring up and down the East Coast from Washington, D.C to Atlanta and hitting everywhere in between, Scottie Flippen separates himself from that.
Although not opposed to partying and having a good time, Scott has developed the keen art to separate from the mainstream and shape his music into depictions of the injustices and hypocrisy that have crippled American society in recent years. With a style that encompasses 90's West Coast sounds, combined with East Coast & Down South flavor, the diversity in Scott's music shines with every bar. Couple that with the lost art of being a true emcee, and you've got a party that doesn't stop until they make you leave (but that doesn't mean you gotta go home). A lot of artists can rap, plenty of studio artists make good music, but not just any emcee can rock a crowd like Scottie Flippen. Add vocalist Kelsey McJunkins' powerful voice and beautiful smile to the mix for a set that isn't rivaled by many. Whether it be on a college campus or a hole in the wall in your city, he always leaves his audience with something to think about. Thought...an interesting word that has disappeared from most Hip-Hop.
