Indie Watch : Ashton Travis

In a while Houston haven't had anyone to really claim the title of hometown hero since the days of UGK, and they were from Port Arthur,TX. So I Present to you a new name that will remain in your memory bank, its Ashton Travis. Through Facebook, my friend showed me his song "Still Dreamin" and I was thoroughly impressed. Did some research on the fella, and realized he was from Houston and residing in Washington, DC due to his 4 year plan at Howard University. With him being this young, still in college and have the time to pursue his dreams, the future is very bright for the future hometown hero.

Finally Famous Album Pushed Back

Big Sean’s debut album Finally Famous which was set to release May 3rd has now been pushed back to June 21st (damn). The project is led by the Chris Brown-assisted single “My Last,” which is now making it’s way onto the airwaves, and features contributions from No I.D., Mike Posner, Kanye West, and Pharrell.

Sean also says he is debating between two songs for his next single. “That’s a tough one. I would go with either ‘What Goes Around Comes Around’ or ‘Don’t Tell Me You Love Me,’” he told Rap-Up.com.

He then spoke on a new track featuring his mentor Kanye West. “It’s kind of like super special. It’s something people are going to be able to party to and has a great message at the same time. It’s just me and him going at it. Pause. I’m really excited about it. I can’t wait for the public to hear it.”

Even though well have to wait just a bit longer, I’m sure Sean wont disappoint us. FFOE!
