Critical
Praise for Moe Green:
Selected as a member of 106 KMEL's (the biggest Bay Area hip-hop station) Freshmen Class of 2010.
The Video:
As we approach the release of Moe Green's Rocky Maivia: Non-Title Match, the Vallejo, California emcee continues to release content to give fans a chance to preview the project. This time, Moe Green puts out a teaser in which he raps the first verse from his song "KIM (Keep it Moving)," a track featured on the album. The video is an intimate face-to-face with the camera with the Bay Area rapper delivering his rhyme in a gritty, raw style, and showcases the skills that have landed Moe on KMEL's Bay Area Freshman Class of 2010 and fast growing recognition for the 22-year old rhymer. Green's unofficial debut, Rocky Maivia: Non-Title Match, out via Interdependent Media, will be available in July, offered as a free download/pay-what-you want on Moe Green's bandcamp.

The Background:
The rap game is overflowing with aspiring new MCs, all crammed into a single ring fighting for that lone heavyweight title. One particular competitor who has fully dedicated himself to the good fight is 22-year old Moe Green from Vallejo, California. His forthcoming debut album, Rocky Maivia: Non Title Match, is titled after Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's first professional ring name and perfectly embodies Moe place in today's hip-hop circuit - the newcomer who is one day going to hold the championship belt. Like any fighter, years of training, dedication, and discipline are required to claim the top spot. Moe has been training for this his entire life. Having competed in speech and poetry meets growing up, Moe found himself genuinely attracted to the creative freedom music imparts early in his life, even writing rhymes in kindergarten with his childhood best friend and E-40's son, Droop-E. Listeners of Rocky Maiva can expect to hear tales from a young man from a hard hit city trying to find his way in the world the best he can. On growing from Rocky Maivia to one day standing amongst the greats, Moe says, "I need to win a couple belts first. I have to prove that I have the skill to do that and this album is like my wrestling debut." And so, the journey begins.
