When you think of some of the hip-hop greats coming out of Long Beach California, the ones you can never leave out are P-Nice, Donn Johnson and the legendary Monsta Yo who continues to make power moves from the Bing!!!
These amazing lyricists have come together with their latest track “Day Onez”and have fused the old school classics with the new school realities giving the listener a vibe that you can relate to through and through.
These profound artists have created music that brings people together while at the same time taking you through tales of their life experiences in which so many of us have experienced in our lifetime.
Donn Johnson brings the truth to the track in a way that causes you to close your eyes and reminisce. While P-Nice comes raw with truth ripping the track with a new style that is incredible and uncut. Monsta Yo with his eloquent cadence pays homage to those who impacted him with brotherhood and friendship.
Together each artist became a perfect collaboration of what Long Beach Music is all about.
The Long Beach movement is still alive. And there has become a sort of vendetta to show the world that the people in Long Beach are unified in a way like no other.
Donn Johnson is quoted saying:”we are the leaders of tomorrow. Which means we set the tone. When you know better you do better. We are conscious men and so we lead by example by allowing our actions to speak volumes in every way. We can’t just say we represent Long Beach yet not support each other. This movement is a movement that shows and proves. And that’s what we’re doing today.”
These men are purpose driven entrepreneurs who are the new leaders of hip Hop. Make no mistake do not sleep on these phenomenal lyricist. Because they are about to change the way we view hip hop as we know it. It is about time that we’ve gotten back to the essence of hip Hop.

I guarantee you won’t be disappointed. Each one are heavy hitters who are truly living legends in this world of hip Hop. Don’t sleep on them because they are history in the making…..
