Back to 10 New Rappers for Black Music Month 2012

Rockie Fresh

It's rare to find a balance between any two extremes, however, Chicago rapper Rockie Fresh has mastered the art of blending cultures with finesse. Moving from the inner city to the suburbs when he was young, Rockie found inspiration in both hip-hop and alternative rock genres and has somehow found a way to incorporate both into his music. His most recent project, Driving 88, has garnered much attention from label heads and rap followers alike. Last year, he toured with Wale on a few Ambition tour dates and within a few months, there have been talks of him possibly signing to Bad Boy Records.
