Video: Get:Live Session #3: Daveed Diggs




Daveed Diggs is the best Oakland rapper you might not have heard of. I've said it before and I'm saying it again. To lend a little creedance to this claim, check your boy out on the 3rd installment of the Get:Live Sessions hosted by the Get:Back Crew. Watch the verbal wizadry and then the next time you see the Jimi Hendrix'd out Bay Area emcee, give him daps.  With that said, I'll turn it over to Rafael Casal of the Get:Back to let yall know more.

Daveed Diggs is a new rising force in the Oakland Rap scene. One of the frontmen of Bay Area band The Getback, Diggs wields his powerful lyricism and hypnotic cadences like only a true Oakland-raised MC can. Much of his delivery feels like an instrument itself, riding over bass-heavy beats and reinforced by his witty content. With his upcoming debut album "Small Things To a Giant" set to drop this spring, Daveed Diggs is pushing an impressive line in 2011, giving a new sound in Hip Hop to represent his home turf. Stay tuned, and enjoy "I Feel Like" Composed by The Get:Band and written & performed by Daveed Diggs.
