64’s New EP “Verified” Explains What Being Verified Actually Means✅
It’s no secret that 64 Boy, or Gregory Craig Brown Jr. as he is more commonly known, is one of the most iconic HipHop producers who has had the opportunity to collaborate with some of the biggest names in HipHop such as Chainz, Megan Thee Stallion, Rick Ross, and others. As well as his impressive collaborations, 64 is also known for his unique blend of west coast vibes, trap and R&B, which gives his brand its unique identity.
From his early years in his hometown of Richmond, Virginia, his inspiration was provided by notable legends such as Michael Jackson, Dr. Dre, Jim Crow Boys, Three Six Mafia and other platinum selling artists whose works paved the way for his future success.
During our interview, 64 was asked about his current project Verified.
What is the current project?
“My current project is called Verified, and will focus on the interesting relationship that the music industry has with social media verification, but pushes the boundaries going layers further, to discuss what does being verified truly represent?”
Speaking of Verified, what does it mean to you?
“Being verified as an artist and a man, providing for your family means you’re verified, waking up and walking proudly, knowing that you are following your calling in life, means you’re verified. Knowing that you exist with a full heart and are passing on positivity to friends, family and strangers, means you’re verified. I want to encourage artists to lock deep in themselves and ask the question, “Am I a verified person?”
A single from 64’s Anxiety EP, “In the Air,” has already received more than one million streams on Spotify and is being talked about at clubs across the east coast. Verified will be released later this summer, creating solid buzz within the industry.
It is with great pleasure that we look forward to more upcoming projects, like ” Verified,” to chart, adding to the master collection of 64. The Verified project will be dropping June 24th, 2022, across all major outlets.

Fresh Face Rising Artist “Poetic Muse” Shining bright on the West Coast
Introducing Poetic Muse, a rising female artist from the West Coast who is set to make waves in the music industry with her unique blend of poetry and captivating lyrics. Her emotive work not only resonates with audiences but also empowers and inspires women worldwide.
With a background in artist management and development, Poetic Muse is no stranger to hard work and dedication. Hailing from Los Angeles, she draws inspiration from her personal experiences, family, and influential West Coast female artists like Lady of Rage, Sylke Fine, and YoYo. Her artistic journey began in her youth, hustling on the streets of Las Vegas where she and her friends would write raps, using their daily struggles as fuel for their dreams of making it big in the music industry. Over time, her music evolved into a more personal and poetic expression, providing an outlet to vent emotions, express feelings, and connect with others.
In July 2021, Poetic Muse released the first four poems in her series titled “Phenomenal I Am,” inspired by the works of Maya Angelou’s “Phenomenal Woman” and Tupac Shakur’s “Rose that Grew from Concrete.” These pieces take listeners on a journey through her life, showcasing her thoughts, emotions, and diverse talents. Her debut in the music scene came in 2021 when she was featured on Long Beach Rapper Monsta Yo’s single “Don’t Wanna Lose You.” Then, in May 2023, she released her first single titled “Letter 2 My First Born,” a touching tribute to her son. A few months later, on July 1st, she dropped her second single “Click Clack,” featuring Los Angeles rapper Engine 5ive.
These songs are part of her upcoming project “Olivia Pope 2 Da Streets,” scheduled for release on January 26th, 2024. This highly anticipated project will explore new directions, collaborations, and techniques, featuring artists such as Monsta Yo, Liddy Mechelle, T3Halo, and Engine 5ive. With her exceptional talent and diverse range, Poetic Muse is truly a hidden gem poised to leave a lasting impact on the industry.
