This story does not begin at birth, no that is too typical. This story begins when a young man came home from school and his father told him about a rapper he wanted him to know about. He told his son that the rapper gifted him something special. The rapper gifted this young man a white towel that said "Here Comes the Lords", on it. From that day Do It All was not a statement it was a name. As time went forward the young man was able to meet and learn of who Do It All was. From music videos to video games the Chief Rocka himself crossed paths with this young man on many occasions but they didn't know the true impact they would have to each other.


Do It All Du has changed the understanding of Hip-Hop by showing us that Hip-Hop is not only a music genre (to the outside world), but a platform to grow and mature not only a brand but to mature a man into leadership. He has traveled the world showing the globe "Black Men", not only say rhymes on stage but can live on principles and mold communities as well. By running for Councilman at Large in Newark, NJ , Mr. Dupre' Kelly aka Do It All not only was the funky child from the song that made the hood stand up. He was the leader that made the outside world take notice that change had come to the Hip-Hop landscape as well. Hip-hop was now vying for political seats to change the community not just 1 beat and lyric at a time but 1 voice and 1 vote at a time as well.


The other young man in this story was once again able to cross paths with Do It All at a listening party where he was able to present him with an award. The Gov Mattic Award for pushing Hip-Hop forward outside of the music, to keep the culture alive and to preserve the achievements of those that came before them to create change. Do It All not only accepted but he gave thanks to God, to the inspiration of Gov Mattic but also to his mother Ms. Brenda. Because Do It All believes in service he gave again to the Hip-Hop community by having an album ready to release and previewed it to the room. This album changes the narrative.


Hip-Hop is not all drugs, sex, turn up and violence. It is also heart felt, loving, inspiring, and life giving as well. With a production team that rivals any ban, lyrics that can change direction and flow with honest delivery, we were not only treated to good music but to the narration of the vibe by Ms. Brenda herself. Do It All gave us his greatest gifts of all on this album; his mother's love and his life's truth to learn from. He affectionately named this album Brenda's Son to incorporate his mother into his most poignant and open album he has ever done.


The Album Brenda's Son comes out March 17th 2020, and it will change the way we look at Do It All, Hip-Hop and "Black Men" in general. In a time where men do not express themselves well, he found a way to bring you into his life and honor not only the listener with a well put together album (check out choices), he honors his mother by letting her truth live as we go for a ride through his life to see him go from a boy to a man that changed the narrative of his story by believing not only in his dream but the love of his mother to overcome a harsh city, and the hard reality of inner city pain.


Brenda's Son will change the game. The album will teach you not only about yourself with every listen but about a man that grew from a boy, to a rapper, into a political sign of hope in his city and to the world. Whether people buy or stream the album, Brenda's Son will be something they will never forget. Christ once said that we can see the Father through him. Well, to be honest, we can see the album through the life of Mr. Dupre Kelly as he continues to live not only for the music and Hip-Hop culture. We see him live out his mother's love and his belief in better not only for himself but his city. Congratulations Do It All, the world is your stage and the album/your story is the masterpiece performance that not only makes Gov proud but inspires us all continuously in our days.

Hip-Hop in today's generation is unfairly being critiqued. The new generation is seen as disrespectful, and not holding up the Hip-Hop culture for what it is or what it was meant to be. I strongly disagree wit this statement because Hip-Hop is only in it's 50's which would be the age of a grown adult that is still learning their journey but can be stuck in their own way. When we look at Hip-Hop in this way we see the Hip-Hop we loved was Hip-Hop culture in its' infancy and through growth it will take twists and turns before its' gifts are truly developed. The same can be said about Jersey and its' Hip-Hop culture as well.


In New Jersey the term of support and self hatred have been themes of the culture and with this article we hope to end that false narrative today. NJ is ripe with so much talent that the talent is fighting to be heard and Heritage Hip-Hop is the outlet for them. We started the Jersey Series where we will take artist and create playlists featuring them and sharing it to the masses so not only can they be heard but the listeners can check out their projects and music pages as well. Part 1 features 4 of the brightest in NJ right now: Ib Mattic , Solis, J.1.Da, and Samad Savage.


Each artist comes with their own style but they all compliment each other wisely and efficiently and could arguably be, if they were, one of the best cliques/groups in the Hip-Hop culture PERIOD. Ib Mattic is an MC that was bread from MO Sound Group's creator Push Buttinz who serves as his mentor and father. Ib is an accomplished producer and MC that is not only a child prodigy but the next inline to follow what Kwame, Kanye West (old of course), and Jay Dilla has brought to the game. Beats and passionate rhymes that match his creativity. The Same could be said for Samad Savage that has dropped classic projects in the last 2 years The Grey Area and Trust The Weird Kids. J.1.Da and Solis are lyrical tyrants that destroy the many beats that they are on and continue to detail their own personal development in their music. J.1.Da details spiritual growth as a man and MC in his rhymes with a voice that can lead a battle ex. Braveheart and Solis talks about his Hispanic Heritage and fighting for the freedom to express and deliver righteousness to the masses.


Having done songs together we put this playlist together to highlight some of their best work separate and part of their albums/projects and highlighting other names in the NJ Hip-Hop landscape as well as some from outside of the land like, Chris Rivers, The Ghost Jay, Therapeutic Stan, Khalidatnight, superstar Leah Jenea, and Push Buttinz himself. We urge everyone to become members of www.HeritageHipHop.com (membership is free), and download this classic mixtape and experience why the future of NJ Hip-Hop is in good hands.

When we read the Bible we read that The Most High separated the waters and exposed the land. Later we read that man was made from the dust of the ground. In the theory of evolution we are told that creatures came from the waters and the mud of the ground and came to populate the earth. I can say that in the story of New Jersey Hip-Hop when the landscape was ripe for new sound, Out Da Mud Music Group came and gave the Garden State something rich with nutrients to grow and strengthen the Sounds of New Jersey culture.


Exclusive to Heritage Hip-Hop, Out Da Mud Music Group released their new mixtape BC Era. The theme of the project is to take the listener to the time before the crisis when Hip-Hop was different , new, creative and fresh out the pack to a landscape of new youthful listeners. Frank Castle and Shot Kobang take us on lyrical escapades rapping on beats of Hip-Hop's great past on beats that feature a duo theme. Songs like It's Lit and Soul Food take the listener to yesteryear remembering the power of a group, the power of 2 MCs that can control a microphone and paint a narrative. Frank Castle brings the punch of a tactician and Shot Kobang bring the lyrical MMA style punch. But when you think it ends there Grimm Cyph the shadow of the group delivers a raw style that leaves the average ear shook with anticipation of the next verse.


The video It's Lit sets the stage for the Mixtape and by the end of the project we hope you are ready for the album to come. Out Da Mud will be talked about in 2020 as they drop projects and have featured music in the upcoming movie Umoya starring Jason Sterling, a hall of fame martial artist and actor. New Jersey Hip-Hop is going places, be sure you are ready to go with it. Stay Muddy!!!
