Phoenix, AZ (Vocus/PRWEB ) May 4, 2009 -- O.G. Bobby Johnson has spent half of his life bringing people and Rockford, Illinois solace with fierce rhymes and a sharp flow. Now, at 24, the lyricist is ready to go national with his debut album ''For The Hood, From The Hood.''
"When I started making my album I wanted to record music that people could feel, not just skim through," the 24-year-old MC explains. "My goal with the album is to be in stores world wide and to be recognized as a great rapper wherever I am known."
There are plans to shoot videos for two of his bangers including the charming R&B flavored ''Tonight's The Night'' and the club-savvy ''I Can Keep You Fly'' featuring AK Billionaire. ''For Tha Hood, From The Hood'' also features guest spots from Deco, Johnny P, Official and Mr. 815.
Johnson has been developing his craft since he was an Y.G. He started rapping at school and parties around his 'hood when he was 12-years-old. From there he met Steve Ferguson, began recording music at his home studio and branded his name all throughout Chicago. After receiving a distro tip from his mentor and co-collaborator AK Billionaire, Johnson linked up with 101 Distribution.
Now with a solid distribution deal and a classic album in his hands, it's time for this O.G. to shine. "I want people to hear my music and be able to play it over and over with no problem for years upon years," Johnson says. "I want them to feel music that never dies out or gets old like a lot of music you hear everyday."
