Black ARTIST & INFO This album will be Gucci Mane's fifth release since signing with Warner Bros. Records in 2009, and his first since his arrest earlier this year. Gucci Mane released The Return of Mr. Zone 6 in March of 2011 as a reintroduction to the music so popular amongst his most ardent of fans. Brick Squad 1017 T-Shirt Ferrari Boyz is the second official release from Waka Flocka Flame. Last October, the rapper released his debut album Red Flockaveli, dubbed as "the most anarchic rap album of 2010" by the Washington Post. Led by the #1 single "No Hands" featuring Wale and Roscoe Dash, Flockaveli debuted at #6 and was both praised and criticized for its abandonment of lyrical prose for menacing, adrenaline-fused production. The New York Times cited Flockaveli as "one of the most bracing and unforgiving hip-hop releases in recent memory. Almost single-handedly, and without context, it rediscovers hip-hop's pugnaicity in an era of extreme melodic sophistication, an idiosynratic anomaly."

ARTIST & INFO Hometown: Shreveport, Louisiana Band Members: Kenny Wayne Shepherd (Lead guitar/vocals), Noah Hunt (Lead vocals), Chris "Whipper" Layton (Drums), Tommy Shannon (Bass), Riley Osbourn (Keyboards/B-3) There are few artists whose names are synonymous with one instrument and how it's played in service to an entire genre. Utter the phrase "young blues guitarist" within earshot of anyone with even a cursory knowledge of the modern musical vanguard and the first name they are most likely to respond with will be Kenny Wayne Shepherd. Still barely in his 30s, the Louisiana born axeman and songsmith has been selling millions of albums, throwing singles into the Top 10, shining a light on the rich blues of the past and forging ahead with his own modern twist on a classic sound he has embodied since his teens. He met Stevie Ray Vaughn at 7, shared the stage with New Orleans legend Bryan Lee at13. As an adult, he continues to create genre-defining blues-infused rock n' roll.
