You can replay the whole live man But until then just leave a like comment subscribe turn on your post notification bells Let's continue to grow the family from Chicago to the UK. Don't forget. We do got merch as well And we also got the patreon which is Monday through Friday. I do owe a patreon from yesterday, man I was still like, I don't know what happened. It just like repopped up. I don't know. I felt sick again But UK drill from prison from prison prison bars to chart-topping stars Gotta be talking about Mazda Gotta be salute to Mazda man. Free the bro man. He out next year or something like they're two years Let's get into this kid nerd in the last few years There's been a lot of talk about UK drill dying out a lot of drill fans of fellow I love with the genre mainly due to some of them You can't fall out of love with something that you genuinely relate to and you generally to leave from that same struggle, you know I'm saying but But I do feel like the best artists are locked up. I've always said this y'all know that Their favorite artists being locked up and people believe in dialogue and new rappers don't feel as authentic as the old ones You see which has bred a new wave in the genre Jormiz it recorded directly from prison and weirdly enough is kind of put in the whole scene back on We'll be getting into how a few different guys who are locked up together on some serious charges Turn their gel freestyles into six figure label deals and singles that I've charted in the top 20. Let's get into it I feel like Mazda's been doing this Maybe there was other people But I feel like the entire time that Mazda's been locked up. He's been dropping music From inside a gel cell, but a lot of y'all do that But like I feel like he's done it so much and finally clicked You know I'm saying the scouts is even though he's in jail the scouts is never let that man walk along And and took him somewhere. He never thought he'd be from inside of a jail to the top 20 on the charges No Before I get into this video guys I just want to quickly say that I really appreciate all the love and support the channels been getting this year So I'm running another giveaway on my Instagram for a PlayStation 5 to enter the giveaway All you have to do is follow my Instagram in the description, but Now a random winner to now rapper from making music from Joe is nothing new one of the first artists to do it was a rapper From Newham in East London called Muva now Muva was one of the biggest rappers to come out of East London in the early 2010s But in 2014 the robbery gone wrong resulted in Muva getting a 30-year jail sentence at the height of his music career This didn't stop him from releasing music though because in 2017 while serving his sentence in HMP Belmarsh, which is one of the most secure prisons in the UK He released a mixtape called exit wounds with certain songs recorded while in prison Which caused up a big stir on the news Labeling it as a disgrace that he was able to release this while being locked up for a murder The mixtape was eventually pulled down from streaming services. You know what's crazy. They could they do this now like it's nothing There's nobody even bats an eye But you know move or walk so everybody else could run Is that spot there to prevent any profit being made from it and a lot of bad press came out after the mixtape got Released from big news publications to deter people from supporting it But the main thing people were wondering was how it was even possible to record a whole album while being locked in a mad Security prison. Well, do you know how? Do you know how smart these dudes be in there? They have nothing but time on their hands to engineer engineer anything To be honest is not too difficult nowadays now. It's not really a secret that there are a lot of phones in UK prisons I'm not really too sure about everyone else's tiktok feed But for me personally at least one in every 10 videos I'm seeing right now on my feed is being filmed by somebody locked up nowadays for whatever reason I guess a lot of people are really interested about what goes on inside prison Which has created a whole lot of different social media opportunities for people locked in. I remember I took I did a video Reacting to this and they took it down They took it down reacting to prison footage. They took it down Inside several inmates have even made big social media for the ends literally just by recording about their day-to-day life inside which they could continue to build on when they come Now obviously phones are illegal in all UK gels and prisons Which means phones need to be smuggled in through different ways in certain prisons They can simply be smuggled in by throwing them over prison walls or with drones that release them over the walls in other ways Through people who smuggled them through visits But the main way is just through corrupt prison staff and officers in prison Contra banned items like phones and drugs are valued way more higher than they are to the outside world So smuggling them in has become a very lucrative trade now throughout the last few years We've seen numerous different drill artists post free stars when they've been locked up This was mainly from ISU made their name in the outside world in an attempt to keep their name buzzing while they're locked up But in the north of England an upcoming artist was starting to create his name from the jailhouse and his name was Mazza L20 He started posting freestyles to his YouTube channel after being sentenced to 11 years for a string of different charges Mazza grew up in a town in Liverpool called Butal, which wasn't the safest area to grow up in and from a young age He's free bro Started getting into trouble in this area Unfortunately, Liverpool has quite a high quantity of guns and drugs throughout the city Which has caused a lot of problems in the area with Liverpool having one of the largest ports in the UK Which is believed to have frequent shipments of guns and drugs Even the prison staff got to give it up for Mazza, bro Ro made a song 35 remixes and charted from inside. Come on, man He's passing through every day. Sadly, just like all the other young kids in Liverpool Mazza got caught up with the use of guns and drugs Which got him caught up in a very big case in 2016 Mazza and one of his friends called Adam Mercer were on the police radar when they were linked to a few different violent incidents around the city Somehow during an arrest on Mazza, the police managed to gain access to his phone Which had some pretty crazy stuff on the camera multiple pictures and videos of different fire Were all recovered on the phone videos that Mazza allegedly firing a Russian made automatic pistol and another video of Mazza's friend Adam Mercer Snoot in drugs of a shotgun was enough evidence to arrest Mazza in his friend Adam on some serious firearm charges And what made this all look a hundred times worse was one of the guns that was firing on one of the videos was used to shoot And kill a 17-year-old called Kevin Wilson a few months before this was where Mazza and Adam's relationship turned sour Mazza believed Adam was informing on the case Well, Mazza pulled up to Adam's house and confronted him about it Which resulted in Mazza attacking Adam adding to his charges in 2016 Mazza was sentenced to a total of 11 years for possessing 2016 he was 11 years so he got a personal firearms It was found out that Mazza had no link to the murder of Kevin in 2015 Despite him possessing the same gun that was used Which is probably a result of the weapon being sold onto Mazza after being used for that specific murder So Mazza had now been sentenced to 11 years at 19 years of age And now he had a lot of time on his hands. He started to build an online presence in 2020 He made an entire music career from behind bars He got to be the GOAT That's not legendary What? I understand that there's a lot of other Liverpool artists I'm talking about Liverpool GOAT There's a lot a lot of other Liverpool artists that have been rapping but the way he did it The way he's going about it is tough During the COVID-19 lockdown which was a time where prisoners Forever remembered that man was locked up 23 hours every day to prevent the spread of COVID This was when he started recording himself freestyling and uploading onto his youtube channel Mazza had built quite a name up for himself in the north of England with these tracks Especially after jumping on tracks with notorious criminals that Wes Brown who is very known in Liverpool But it was in 2022 when he really started gaining some national attention to what he was doing When he filmed a whole music video in gel featuring on a track with a Manchester rapper called L1Manny They've actually made a whole edited music video from shots that will record him with a phone As expected the media had a lot to say about this Which only really boosted his popularity altogether A couple months later Mazza would hit headlines again After he dropped a first of a new series he was creating on his channel called J. Lee Duffy Freestyles Which is obviously a reference to the popular daily Duffy freestyle series on J.R.M. Daily But without a lot of people even knowing it, Mazza was literally creating a whole music platform like J.R.M. Daily But directly for inmates after his first J. Lee Duffy was such a success gaining over a million views He started there another inmates feature in the series with it even being some inmates first time releasing music to the public A few different J. Lee Duppies that stood out was from a few artists coming from Birmingham called Mons Malone, K-Money and KB Who and that some of the other inmates in the series have actually built their names up on the music scene separately Now if you've been listening to UK rap for some time now chances You've probably heard of KB already He was one of the biggest rappers coming out of Birmingham in the early 2010s But in 2013 a home invasion gone wrong cut his music career short In April 2013 KB and his friend Blake smashed their way into a 62 year olds house who they believed to be high up in the drug world when they entered the property They tied up up the 62 year old to the floor while they searched his house looking for money They originally demanded 50,000 pound from the victim But eventually lowered it to 10,000 pound when they realized they might have the wrong guy The pair only ended up leaving with a fake Rolex and 150 pound They continue to demand money off him through text messages and calls after they released him It wouldn't take long to connect KB and Blake to the kidnap and they were both charged with the crime After text messages shows KB sending pictures of the fake Rolex to his contacts KB was sentenced to 11 years Blake's out right and Blake was sentenced to eight which was unfortunate due to him getting locked up when his career was just starting to go out KB's release from that's why I be trying to tell y'all man if it's any artists out there man and you and you thinking about doing something crazy Believe you mean you're closer to success than you think You see with a lot of these dudes they getting locked up at the At the top of their career at the best moment at the best right before they about to Stop Joe was highly anticipated in the rap world But around four years into his sentence with only a couple years left He was hit with another serious charge Conspiracy to supply firearms Basically KB was being accused of being involved in setting up a delivery of a firearm in the outside world While he was locked up this resulted in KB getting another seven years added to his sentence Now with KB being a big name in music while being locked up Naturally, he would get a lot of attention from other inmates in prison whether that's good or bad But a couple inmates that caught KB's attention were two other boys also from Birmingham He went by the name Mars Malone and K money both K money and minds had both been rapping from young They both featured in their first rap song in 2013 when they were around 13 14 But they didn't really take it too serious back then Mars Malone grew up in the area of Birmingham called Newtown and from early just like a lot of other kids in his area He got involved with a local gang called GMG who has serious feuds with a few nearby gangs like AR or arm response I gotta remember we just did documentaries on there. So it's fresh in my head. It's all clicking right now Mars was starting to make a name for himself in the streets and music Especially after a few unreleased diss tracks Directed to AR got leaked on YouTube at a time when constant back-and-forth situations were happening between GMG and AR In 2019 Mars released his first official drill track called no hook which received a good amount of attention But soon the track could be taken down after Mars was involved in the situation that would change his life forever Around 5 p.m. On May the 6th 2019 armed with a shotgun Mars Malone rolled her back to the area of Hockley, which is AR territory He arrived at whitemore street where he found a group of AR members in the car Mars attempted to fire into the car, but the shotgun actually ended up jamming No surprise Causing Mars to make a run for it after opposition members from the car started chasing him Mars managed to make it to the closest subway station before he was eventually Cool and stabbed the total of 20 times leaving him in a critical condition fighting for his life at a local hospital The response to Mars getting stabbed was quicker than anyone expected less than 24 hours after the stabbing while Mars was still in intensive care GMG members were out looking for revenge Four of Mars's friends started circling AR territory in the Volkswagen loaded with a handgun When they spotted the Voxel Corsa parked outside some shops in the Ladywood district The group fired eight shots into the Corsa with three of the shots hitting the passenger in the car called Dante Mullins Dante attempted to flee the scene after the first round of bullets But sadly, seconds after making his escape, he collapsed and unfortunately died due to his injuries Mars remained in hospital for the next nine days preceding his attack And when he was determined to be in a stable enough condition to be released He was shocked to find out he was being shipped straight to prison from his husband Why was he shocked? That was not shocking Spore bed, he was now charged with the possession of a firearm and maybe even a tooth in him Possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life Which is a very serious crime Yeah, that's not shocking now He's probably shocked like dang, they got me Damn, that he got said Dang, I'm waking up from a coma and I'm in jail And that's 11 years for But despite his quite disturbing background, since Mars has been locked up He's done something which I don't think anyone has actually done before Mars alongside his childhood friend K-Money who is currently locked up for a weapon and drug charges Has rose to national stardom from prison You can't scroll through social media at the moment and miss them Just that Mazda L20 I've never heard of either one of them Not gonna lie to you But now, now, now, kid, you're not putting me on Hair started gaining attention after dropping a few different freestyles to Instagram and TikTok And out of nowhere, a lot of big names in the industry started supporting them But Mars and K-Money really made a breakthrough When they released the cover track to Central Sea and Dave's hit single, Sprinter Central Sea reposted the cover on his Instagram story Given the two probably Oh, yeah, that's the best pub right there You in the dough at that point The biggest cosign they could have in the UK On the back of all of his freestyle successes Mars released an 11 track album called Mac Tub And critics are putting this down as one of the best albums to come out in 2023 With the help of some of his producers that start I'm telling you, all the best artists is locked up As on the beat and stacked beats The album actually fills and sounds like it was recorded in a proper studio Despite the audio just coming from voice notes on Mars' phone The album caught a lot of attention from big figures in the music game Like Central Sea's manager YB's Who's proved to be one of the best marketers in the UK rap game These connections he was making in the rap scene Would soon prove to be vital When labels started showing interest in Mars to get him signed After weighing his options out Mars recently signed a six figure distribution deal Where he still owns the rat to all of his masters Which is kind of unheard of from somebody coming from jail Which definitely must be very inspiring to other inmates He probably now believed they could also achieve their goals Mazel 20 has also been making big moves While still serving out his sentence After releasing probably his biggest track yet called Murder said With the song being remixed by some of the biggest artists in the UK rap game currently The song has been doing so well That it chired in the top 20 of the UK charts Which is actually insane when you really think that this song was recorded from a voice note in jail The buzz these artists have created is definitely one we haven't seen in a long time And the support they're getting is against the ordinary Considering the UK scene gets slated often due to a lack of support for new artists Obviously it's important not to glamourize the prison lifestyle Because at the end of the day prison is one of the lowest and worst positions you can find yourself in life But we can only hope through the artist storytelling That there could be some valuable lessons to the youth To prevent them from following the same route These artists are You know why they music hit different though? It's because we know for a fact that they lived what they're talking about and they're not capping We know we can't we just we just assuming or guessing about these other dudes But them we know We're in a very powerful position right now Having so much influence online with a younger audience while being locked up Hopefully they can use their platform to really make a change And stop people from making decisions in life to land them locked up as well Naturally, I feel like off the back of their success They're also inspiring a lot of people who are also trapped in the system That there's a way out even at their darkest times Matters should be out soon But K-Money and Mons do have a bit of time left If they all play their cards right I have no doubt that their careers will continue to flourish It's been a boykidner TLO leave a like comment subscribe turn on your post notification bells man Just because you feel just because you've seen them doing it Don't get locked up on purpose now Stop it I'm going
