I don't know what it is about this kid, but I'm kind of obsessed with his music today. Diggy Simmons, son of Run DMC's Rev Run, is about to drop his new mixtape, Past Presents Future on December 23rd. The fifteen year-old is starting to build his own reputation after being signed to Atlantic Records at the start of the year. With the arrival of his new mixtape, he looks set to further build on the iconic Simmons name.
Diggy's new music combines classic beats with his own freestyles, perhaps this is what captures my attention, but it takes skill to keep the magic in the beat and, in my opinion, young Diggy does it well. Watching the kid go from hypebeast to cool kid on MTV's Run's House, his flow and style have seen him being compared to Lupe Fiasco, surely that's never a bad thing?!
Below is Digg is Like, the first single from the mixtape and a DJ Premier production...I'll post the mixtape link when it becomes available.
What is Russy going to do with his life, that's what I want to know, he makes Run's House!
