Printing the blue on the second day of the printing schedule. Here we have the recently posted text block of 14 pt Franklin Gothic Italic typography poetry, if that’s a thing. It’s embarrassing that I’ve had this press for nearly 30 years and this is the first time I have experimented with a color blend or fade across the rollers. Let’s just say it worked. Really well. As in the only surprise was that the results are more beautiful than I had imagined they would be.

CHICKEN P SHARES NEW PROJECT 4EVALIT 

Fresh off the release of last month’s acclaimed mixtape Hardest N****a Livin’,  Milwaukee rap cornerstone Chicken P has just shared his new project 4EvaLit .The release follows the project’s high-octane lead single, Midwest party anthem “Low Life Rich N****a”, as well as the aforementioned Hardest N****a Livin’ – a triumphant, unflinching life portrait in which Chicken P chronicled his gritty road to success out of the streets of Milwaukee and went on to peak at #10 on the Apple Music Hip-Hop charts. Out now via 10K Projects and Really Rich Empire, 4EvaLit sees Chicken P continuing his hot streak as he scales the ranks of the Midwest’s booming rap scene.   

2023 proved to be a breakout year for Chicken P, with the Milwaukee rapper christening his status as one of the most noteworthy new acts to come out of his home state in recent memory. Chicken P first emerged onto the Milwaukee scene during the 2010s and carved out a name for himself for his raw lyricism and bass-loaded sound with projects like the BussaBrick series (Volume 1 and Volume 2) and 2023’s Aint Lost Shit. The locally-grown, grassroots momentum reached a boiling point in early 2024 following the release of BussaBrick Vol. 3, a string of features with fellow Milwaukee newcomers Certified Trapper and Myaap, as well as his biggest song to date “Venting” (4M+ Streams) — effectively catapulting him into the upper echelon of underground street rap. Chicken P has since caught the eye of Sexxy Red, Peezy, YTB Fatt and Jalen Green while earning co-signs from rap heavyweights like Veeze, Rylo Rodriguez, Skilla Baby, and Babyface Ray — and playing a key role in leading the Milwaukee scene to mainstream success in the process.

J.P. SHARES NEW ALBUM COMING OUT PARTY

Following the success of his viral summer anthem “Bad Bitty” (31M+ Streams), 20-year-old Milwaukee tastemaker J.P. has just shared his highly-anticipated new album Coming Out Party, along with a new video for "Never Make Me Hate You". The LP arrives on the heels of last month's “Come And See” and marks the melodic artist’s first full-length offering since entering the mainstream after emerging onto the scene back in 2022 with bouncy track "Juicey Ahhh" (4.4M Streams). Recent months have seen J.P. garner acclaim with a string of popular singles, including 2023’s Dora the Explorer-sampling “Get Down”, “She Took”, and “PARTY MIX”, which samples Billie Eilish’s 2018 track “when the party’s over”. Known for his loveable, carefree personality as much as for his danceable sing-raps, J.P. is carving out his own niche as a must-watch artist coming out of Milwaukee — all while juggling a student-athlete career as a music major and basketball player at The University of Wisconsin–Stevens Point.

Now with all eyes on him for what Billboard says is shaping up to be “the summer of ‘Bad Bitty’”, J.P. is continuing his momentous run with new album Coming Out Party. Hailing from Milwaukee, J.P. was raised by his mother, grandmother, and uncles and has a background in vocal jazz performance, taking inspiration from old-school R&B artists (Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Al Green, and Luther Vandross), classic pop singers (Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Jackie Wilson, and Ella Fitzgerald), musicals (The Sound of Music and The Wizard of Oz), and the Ethiopian dance Eskista as much as he does Milwaukee rap. Equipped with a unique arsenal of deep-cut influences, J.P. is adding his own distinct flavor to his city’s club-ready movement — and helping put Milwaukee on the map in the process.
