Critically acclaimed Hip Hop artist/CEO, City The Great is pushing the culture forward with authentic lyricism, wordplay, and representing all elements of Hip Hop. City recalls writing his very first rap at the age of nine that he titled "F*ck School." Without sounding cliche, the rest is history. As he matured he perfected his crafted, diligently, 24/7. Although a young emcee on the scene he captured the essence of Hip Hop which legendary pioneers in the game caught wind of. The moment Special Ed heard City's music he signed him as the first artist under his label SEmedia. "City The Great is refreshing to the ears, his realness is authentic and he strives to keep the culture and elements of Hip Hop alive." -Special Ed
Although music is number one, Hip Hop is so much more and because of his endeavors as a label owner and activist to bridge the generation gap in Hip Hop, City has been coined a NY Stapleton. He linked with legendary Kool Rock Ski of The Fat Boys to co-orchestrate the Annual Classic Hip Hop and R&B Cookout in NY that brings together the old and new school. "He has great talent and is making incredible moves in the industry, he keeps me young and motivated, this is just the beginning." - Kool Rock Ski
Both Special Ed, Kool Rock Ski, and other founding fathers of Hip Hop are impressed with Great’s ability to reach the masses, globally via his knack for blending traditional Hip Hop with new wave energy with respect to the elements and culture.
