Not to mention J-Billion is rockin’ the spot. Rest assured this shit here will snap for all my 18+ homies. So get mini-flask fill it with your drink of choice and roll through!

Got J-Billion’s “Number 8″ for immediate release yesterday. Sorry for the tardiness. J-Billion is an untapped gem in the Bay Area. His live shows are off the hook and his rhymes are ILL, not to mention the dude has actual acting chops when it comes down to it. Not PRETENDING chops like most rappers. The guy is a natural entertainer that can have you rolling for hours. So it should be a moot point when we say. GET UP ON MAGIC! Damn.

Oh n GET THE ENTER THE BILLION MIXTAPE HERE

Alexander Spit keeps parties rocking and moving like ships in the panama canal. Eloquent with

beats, turn tables and most of all on the microphone, his LA to SF and back again Cali work ethic is singed and sealed with molten gold. His arrival back in L.A couldn’t have been at a better time. If you didn’t catch him at “On The Rox” with Dom Kenddedy, Carter, and Freddie Gibbs in L.A last week, find him in Atlanta or Miami for the Winter Music Conference later this month. Get on magic.

24Karat Milkcrate has telling you about JBillion for a year. He’s clutch if you want a performer that does

the thing opposite of sleeping pills to people, if that thing were your name spelled out in cocaine on mirrored glass. He’s making more nose than jet engines echoing off skyscrapers. It’s time for him to be everywhere. He’s got music to make shows to rock and asses to kick. Trust us, he’s done it for 24Karat Milkcrate many times. It makes complete sense for these two to do a collaboration and for 24Karat MilkCrate to be presenting it to you. Get your new music monday fix on. Press the download button and listen to it if you’re at work, chilling, or have a pulse in your body at this moment.

When The Hundrends backed LA/Bay Area emcee Alexander Spit contacted us about dropping his song “Long Awaited” featuring J-Billion through 24KMILKCRATE.COM we jumped at the chance. We’ve been lucky enough to gain the attention and support of more than a few extremely skilled artists in hip hop and Alexander Spit assuredly falls under the same category. The multi-talented lyricist also whiped up his own production for “Long Awaited” that he and J-Billion easily take command over. The best things come to those who wait. And this shit here, has been “LONG AWAITED”.  (Art work below)

J-Billion’s gift to ya’ll for the new year. As a follower of J-Bill’s career over the past few years I must say this is by far my favorite release from him so far. Especially the first track “Exhibit B (Act 1)” to quote, “I am fly/no legs/n***a paraplegic/so cold with the flow/might be aniemic”. GET UP ON MAGIC!

Take a deep breath, now say every synonym in the English language thinkable for the word swagger. Bay Area emcee J-Billion or “Billion” should be the first word from your lips as you exhale. No stranger to the hip hop scene in S.F, he’s opened up crowds for huge artists like Q-tip, Bun B, and The Clipse, and had them eating from his palm. His high pitched live voice will cut through the weakest sound system and defeat the most unschooled engineer. With a will to succeed that forces the sound waves themselves to be as determined as his heart is to be heard. Fairly unknown outside of the Bay Area, he has more gigs performed and albums stacked up than professional emcees. Which in the course of the interview led him to declare his status as the, “Illest rapper with a job you know.” J-Billion is new to the game but not in a negative way. His thoughts and movements are more mature than a young emcees, yet his spirit makes it clear that he will be forever young. Any veteran in the entertainment business will concur, the music game can be a fountain of youth or it can make a man old and weather beaten beyond his years. Trust, for J-Billion it’s the former…never the latter and luckily, he decided to gear up with 24KMilkCrate and OhDangmag.com to present you with his introduction.
