Song of the Day: Heard About Me – Ron Beatty

Emerging from New Bern, a small city nestled in Eastern North Carolina, is a rapper by the name of RON BEATTY who’s ready to make a big impact. Formerly known as Chedda Chapp, this southern upriser shares the same mentors as Roc Nation’s Grammy Award Nominated Artist J. Cole and is co-founder and flagship artist of lifestyle brand Life’s Grand.

In the summer, the video to single Heard About Me was released and received over 19,000 views through Grassroots marketing campaign. In the four-minute production, he reflects on difficult family issues and his come up in the game.

Heard About Me will be featured on his forthcoming project, Manifest Destiny.

Having smashed it with the original, Sheffield’s hottest grimsta (that’s grime star, just in case you’re wondering) COCO comes back harder with two remixes of the single, Big Bou Yah with Jammz, Terminator and Trigga  on the vocal remix (watch the video) while Walter Egodrops drops a brand new dub of the hugely supported 1Xtra’s Toddla T original.

Big Bou Yah has been heavily playlisted across radio and TV, making COCO the one to watch for 2016. The three-minute explosive banger comes as the follow-up to debut single Target Practice, released via Girls Music in July, which earned the upriser serious recognition from Earmilk and GRM Daily.

The beat skipping kick drums married with the reggae guitar riff lay the foundations to the track as the tempo bubbles and flows, leading in to the vibesy hook.
