We first introduced you to Carson native Madi B back in February this year [see; Carson Native Madi-B Gathers Momentum With Hit Single] when we had his single “My Money’s Long” for free download. Today we are back with news of his debut album “Street G.E.D.” which hits stores on June 5, 2007.
With his current hit single My Moneyﾒs Long continuing to climb the top 200 singles chart Madi B is taking some time to present his story to the young ones of his region.
Currently in the middle of a high-school tour to promote the Anytime Records release “Street G.E.D.” the mindful rapper understands the brevity of the messages in todayﾒs hip-hop climate, so when the kids get turned on by the seemingly glamorous lyrics of his former lifestyle, he speaks to how the realities of that mind-state got him caught up.
“There are a lot of unfortunate realities in hip-hop music today because this music comes from the heart of the streets. These streets breed a lot of different elements some good, some bad; but when youﾒre chasing the dollar itﾒs easy to get caught up in the hustle of the fast living and the fast money. It can turn you into someone you never thought youﾒd be, good or bad, unless you gain some perspective.”
“Street G.E.D.” drops science on how it goes down in the life of a hustler. Madi B, like many others, chose to learn his lessons the hard way, but now when he boasts about his money being long, itﾒs because heﾒs making sound decisions with his life and his business; and when his young fans ask him about living the life of a star, he lets them know the real.
“Street G.E.D.” covers a whole spectrum of topics and issues, from the party anthems of “Glasses Up,” to the bravado of “So Fresh, So Clean” Madi B ensures he delivers an array of messages. “Street G.E.D.” provides you with a musical dissertation of street life by one of its own.
