One-on-One With Hollywood’s Finest!
Bringing that fire, that straight heat, JW, WoodBoi, and KP talk about their come-up in the game, the obstacles they face and their plan to TAKE OVER THE 954. Spitting serious flows over hot beats is nothing for these boys. It’s everyday for them. Managed by KP who is plotting a major movement in Broward county is not going to let anything or anyone stand in their way. With major moves being planned, WoodBoi and JW look to have pretty busy schedules. Coming from the streets of Hollywood Fla., WoodBoi and JW maybe what the music game has been waiting for!

WoodBoi: You a 100 percent on that 1
KP: But we different from the rest of 954 in how we market ourselves and perform at shows
Nine5Four: Really... So what is the difference between your marketing and everyone else’s??
KP: Ok let me tell u
KP: we don’t use people and kick them to the curb to get ahead, we work with a lot of people, show them love and have the mentality that if we work together we can get paid......
KP: we have mixtapes of course
WoodBoi: and our marketing its not only in Broward it’s throughout the whole Florida
Nine5Four: That’s the way good business people work so I can feel you on that...
KP: but we try to do individual hit singles instead of whole albums
JW KNIGHT: I agree hard work equals success and we really work hard by networking and working as a team
KP: its quality over quantity!
Nine5Four: Who would you say are your biggest influences in the rap game and why???
Nine5Four: Lol... I feel you playa... I will edit that for you...

Nine5Four: So what is the next big step for you guys individually, as a movement, and as a company??
WoodBoi: not really because he’s just managing right now
KP: manage 2, but right now rapping is on hold 4 me till I get my money up and gain more experience in life
KP: well the next big step is....
KP: move as individual rappers like what swishahouse did w/ Slim Thug, M Jones, and Paul Wall
