RAURY
One of the stars of Atlanta's new
class of hip-hop renaissancemen alongside ILoveMakonnen and OG Maco,
Raury was turning heads before graduating high school and gained a devoted
following with the release of his first independent album, Indigo Child.
Singles like "God's Whisper" have earned co-signs by Lorde,
who asked him to contribute to the Hunger Games:
Mockingjay soundtrack,
and Andre 3000, who had Raury open for Outkast at
one of their Atlanta homecoming show in September.
With a forward-thinking
approach and a ton of confidence ("I'm going to say it, I'm going to be
one of the greatest lyricists out here," he told
Billboard in March), Raury will get a leg up in 2015 through a fresh
Columbia Records deal and (hopefully) deliver an eclectic major-label debut.
