I was reading some chatter on the WVRapScene forums and there was some doubt that Charleston had 20 rappers in it with a high level of talent. I was listening to some old music on my computer and decided maybe I should give a little bit of shine to a few guys who didn't really have the internet presence that they should have back when their name was really really buzzing in the streets of Charleston.
Plenty Rock hosted the Kings of the Capital City Pt.3 mixtape with Charlie Blac and Crazy Chris and this was one of his Freestyles off of it... Dude sold TONS of his 2 mixtapes.

H Boogi for several years was the hottest thing there was in Charleston. If you were trying to sell a mixtape on the corner the first words from West Siders was "Is there some H Boog on it?" if there wasn't they might not buy it...

Santana Blue is a dude who's worked with just about everybody that there is to work with in Charleston and his group with Mic Rude "Extra Everything" was picking up steam recently before a studio break in lost over a whole projects worth of music. In and out of jail in his career he's had some set backs that left his music sporadic at best.

Maybe next week I'll dig through my digital crates and upload a few more older songs for another little history lesson.
