Lil Bill "Gon Get Wet"
http://www.sendspace.com/file/As a young artist coming from an area where talent is not frequently acknowledged or observed, Nathaniel Sherrod Jr. aka DMV’s Lil Bill is one to take a stand.
Born May 11, 1990 in Temple Hills, MD but living in Southern Maryland the majority of his life, this rapper/singer/producer & songwriter, managed to gain the respect of his peers in the DMV and abroad. Lil Bill is a dynamic combo of energy and swagger that instantly demands attention and accolades from music lovers, buyers, critics, and other established musicians themselves. Lil Bill’s style varies from “the cookouts”, the parties, intense conversations that ignite from his impeccable delivery and narrative storytelling skills.
Graduating from Thomas Stone High School in Waldorf, MD in 2008 he also attended CCBC Essex Community College; Bill came upon the music scene in late September of 2009 after performing in numerous cities and events and recording numerous songs that were getting the attention of locals. “And to think all this started after a couple of college buddies were joking around in a studio, but I got serious.” – Lil Bill

FTDMVO Guest Blog - Giving Up on Yourself! (DJ TORKAVELI
The songs you hear on the buzzing/on the radio - when do you think they were made?
A) Last week?
B) Last month?
C) Last year?
I think most will agree that the answer is C.
What's my point? Songs take time to penetrate, time that a lot of talented DMV artists tend not to give to their songs. Instead of making a song and promoting, tweaking, plugging, playing, sending, and traveling with it to get it exposed and possibly catch on somewhere, we instead make a song, make another song, make another song, make another song, then complain that nobody gives your song a chance.
Well, there's a good reason for that. Nobody believes in your song because YOU don't!
If you slapped people over the head with ONE SONG over a period of say 6-12 months across as wide of an area as you can, I promise you more people would care. But this record, record, record, record, record cycle is an endless one that only will frustrate you (as well as anyone who has to hear you whine).

Cap City Blue: New DMV Hip-Hop jam band
The absolute hardest part of writing your band’s introductory biography is getting the reader on to the second sentence. Well, here you are, right along with DMV natives Cap City Blue, a band that is a breath of fresh air in a hip-hop world ripe with identity crisis. “Band” is nothing if not the keyword: Cap City Blue is a modern fusion of all things hip-hop, rock, electronic, improvisational – you name it – that works on the cardinal rule that music is borne of live instrumentation and real songwriting. Composed of fluid MC MellowMarsh and multi-instrumentalist producer Zack, Cap City Blue’s songs are original stratospheric symphonic concoctions woven together by a tangled web of ink-hearted poetry. Always ready to jam, Cap City Blue is a band that merely wants to offer a new and exciting dimension to the hip-hop game.
The 5-track sampler, "Up Here" can be previewed and downloaded at Cap City Blue's bandcamp:
