Yung Joc's (not Young Joc) album "New Joc City" arrives May 23rd, coming on the heels of his "It's Goin Down" single.. maybe it won't be too late for Bad Boy can still milk a few more bucks out of the southern rap boom.. Different Kitchen aka "the guy i know who likes this stuff" is into him, so that should be a good sign for the project.
Block Enterprises/Bad Boy South artist Yung Joc (not Young Joc) is currently enjoying a huge buzz throughout Atlanta over his first single "It's Going Down." SOHH recently had the opportunity to chop it up exclusively with the young rapper about his newfound fame and his upcoming album.
As SOHH previously reported, Sean "Diddy" Combs' Bad Boy South recently inked a multi-million dollar deal with Block Enterprises CEO Russell "Block" Spencer, the man behind the success of Boyz N Da Hood and Young Jeezy.
As the first release for the new label, 23-year-old Joc is confident that his music will set the pace for the new label.
"I'm focused right now so I'm not feeling any weight on me as the first artist," Joc told SOHH. "I'm an every dude, I believe perseverance is key; I believe in hustle smarter not harder, plan your work and work your plan and put God first."
"It's Going Down," produced by Nitty (Boyz N Da Hood "Them Boyz"), is the first single off Joc's forthcoming album New Joc City...
...While New Joc City will boast several guest appearances, Joc is staying quiet so far on what to expect. "There's gonna be a lot of them, but I ain't going to tell you now. I want to leave something to the imagination. I don't want to use everybody else's credibility just to sell records, I would rather you pick the CD up off my credibility..."
