Kid Russell

Everyone loves to find the next best song; the next best artist. It goes along with our inner ego, “ya know, I discovered that kid,” “I heard that track first.” Its a primal calling to beat the crowd before an artist blows up. I don’t know if I can add Na Palm or Sam Adams to that repertoire, nor do I know if I can add Kidd Russell because all three are so popular already.
My family is originally from Hawaii. I have to say, that Kidd Russell’s music reminds me a lot of driving on the “Poly” with the windows down, in 88 degree weather, listening to the radio. It’s that type of smooth beat and lyrically minded hit that has got me interested. His latest album, labeled “Backyard Heros” an extension of “The Dash” has already reached high popularity on iTunes. His most popular song “Rush Rock Remix” is something I would listen to while working out, and “Paradise” is …well…something I would listen to in paradise.
To add a little background, Russell grew up playing football and transitioned over to indie rap after college. His music has been featured on MTV 2, MTV Jams, Foxsports, and the CW. He’s been blowing up the Chicago music scene ever since. It’s time for the Kidd to come to Seattle and work his magic over here.

NA PALM

Although he may be the biggest “Brobible” alive, Na palm’s music is pretty sick. I’ll vouch for it because my ears can’t put it down. He’s been blowin up Chicago’s night life for the duration of 2010. Its electro, its hip-hop, and its grimy. “Lyrically influenced by the hip hop masters, musically influenced by the Chicago club scene, Na Palm combines both genres to create his signature sound. He started out free-styling at late-late-late-night after-hours; now he’s packing the city’s hottest clubs…and the Kid’s just getting started.” ~ na-palm.com
