New Life Ryders

The Facts: this provocative Wichita- based rapper has opened for almost every hip-hop heavyweight to blow through his corner of the Midwest Nelly, Bone Thugs & Harmony, Cypress Hill, Ja Rule... The list goes on. He's performed on both of DJ Legacy's Heatwave mixtapes and hooked up with Legacy for the MTV 2006 Spring Break Celebration among the other headliners: Lil Wayne, Three Six Mafia and Juelz Santana. He also joined underground heavy hitter Bukshot on his They Still Don't Love Me LP, which features the likes of Bubba Sparxxx, Haystak and Gangsta Black. And no he's not another Eminem, but he does respect the dude's talent. His new album New Life Ryders, features artists from Bilistic's own camp. All the rappers are very lyrical, and very street. The beats are experimental, not your typical sound. The whole album is tight. These guys are serious about their sound and determined to stay true to it.
