Rapper Moe Green is scheduled to release his debut album entitled “Rocky Maivia” this summer. The Vallejo native has been making a name for himself over the last 12 months with numerous songs and videos. Moe used his voice to speak on the issues in the city of Vallejo and created the heartfelt anthem “Hometown” produced by Rob-E, which set everything off in the summer of 2009.
Recently being announced as a part of KMEL’s 2010 Bay Area Freshmen 10 class, the 22-year old rapper has been garnering both local and national attention. The nod of approval was generated with the help of interest in a handful of more leaked material, including tracks like “Going For The Kill“, “Things Don’t Change“, or the debut leak from “Rocky Maivia” called “Non-Title Match“.
To eagle-eyed professional wrestling fans, the title for Green’s debut single and the album itself will ring bells. An avid wrestling fan himself, Moe Green named his album after superstar wrestler/actor The Rock – Rocky Maivia served as The Rock’s moniker when he first debuted in the ring. Green sees his debut album as the Rocky Maivia phase in his own career. “It’s a metaphor for the newcomer with great potential entering the professional leagues,” says Green.
The latest offering from “Rocky Maivia” is the visual for the track called “Ride”. Directed by Chris Kiker and shot in Moe Green’s hometown of Vallejo.
