When <a href="/profile/DoctorDre" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Dr. Dre</a> puts shine on an up and coming artist, the people swarm like bugs to a light bulb. <a href="/profile/king-mez" class="text-word" target="_blank" >King Mez</a>, the 26-year-old spitter out of Raleigh, appreciates the look he’s gotten from his three features on Dre’s Compton LP (“Darkside/Gone,” “Satisfiction,” and “Talk About It”) and is sprinting forward with the love he’s received.

Cole</a> and <a href="/profile/rapsody" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Rapsody</a>. Be prepared to hear much more of this gritty voiced rapper’s rhymes in the years to come.
