Brooklyn Bomber

To describe the Brooklyn MC in his own words, “He’s like a crib on the sun / Sittin’ next to the fireplace / With the heat on a million and one / This young man is hot / He’ll suntan your block”. Apparently Hip-Hop’s most successful and enduring producer to date agrees, as Dr. Dre recently signed Joell to his highly coveted Aftermath label. But if you think that rolling with Dre means this Cooper Park Houses export is solely focused on mainstream recognition, think again. Joell has been endorsed by the likes of Big Daddy Kane, Kool G Rap and KRS One. In fact, he’s already collaborated with all three. Not bad for someone who hasn’t even dropped their first album. But all the early success is no coincidence; in all honesty, it’s been a long time since someone from Brooklyn has come around with this much talent and a real palpable desire to rep for NYC. Joell Ortiz is that dude. If you know what real Hip-Hop is about and what the sound of New York City is all about, this is who you should be checking for. This is the guy.

Such a breath of fresh air
