QUEEN’S COUNSEL

Today and every Tuesday through the end of year I will be introducing female artists who I feel are putting out great music, show a respect for the game and take it seriously by putting their heart and soul into each song they release. These women will represent quality music, show great work ethic, and get a big thumbs up from me as an emcee and as a fan.

BOOG BROWN

“I dont wanna be “dope for a female” I just wanna be Dope. Period.” –Boog Brown

What better way to start up the next batch of ill emcees than to introduce Boog Brown to the roster. I caught wind of her through the grapevine when she dropped her video for “The Essence.” I heard so much chatter I had to see what all the hype was about. But it wasn’t hype. She’s dope. Mashing together style, wordplay, skill, and a love for the rhyme, she embodies all that it is to be a true emcee. Formerly a poet, putting out 2 chapbooks in 2005 through her own imprint –Boog Brown Grl Publications, she’s now decided to place her words over beats and reach the masses on another level. A Detroit native, currently living in Atlanta, she’s not taking the “sex sells” approach to get to where she wants to go. She’s choosing hard work and good music as the vehicle to put her on top.

There’s not much more to say about such a talented artist, her music speaks for itself. Check out the video that sold me on her flow…
