Artist description DIRTY SOUTH BIO: Straight from the South comes one of the most talented lyricists ever to step foot in the booth. Down in the small, but fast developing city of Meridian, Mississippi lies the 20-year-old phenomenon Jeremy “Dirty South” Dubose. And with his debut solo album from Hard 2 Hit Entertainment Everythang’s Gon’ Be Different, Dirty South guarantees that after he drops, Southern Hip Hop won’t be the same. “Words cannot explain what I have to offer this industry,” he says. “The world better get prepared for a new era...See for yourself.” Everythang’s Gon’ Be Different is filled with evidence that more than proves Dirty South’s rampage on rap. The first single, “Nothin’ to a Boss” comes with undeniable impact. Its banging beats and volatile lyrics are just an extra touch of musical magic next to guest appearances by Kokane and hip hop veteran E-40. “To me, the song means no limitations in what I want to do,” says Dirty South. “In other words, The sky is my limit.” Dirty South must be psychic. “Nothin’ to a Boss” has already been nominated one of the “Top 5” with Impact Magazine and Rapattacklives.com. So with flamboyant tracks such as “It’s Like That,” Dirty must have seen the inevitable success coming when he made a song to respond to the questions of doubters. “Everybody looks and says, ‘How did he do this? Why did he do that,’” says Dirty. “And I just say, ‘Cause it’s like that.’” True. So don’t be surprised when you hear other up and coming young MCs like Fabolous trade line for line lyrical episodes with Dirty South on tracks like “That’s How it goes.” And when the Dirty one kicks knowledge on introspective cuts like “Reasons,” you’ll exhale and be content. ‘Cause Everythang’s Gon’ Be Different. “People look at Mississippi like it’s slow. It’s a lot of non believers,” says Dirty South. “I’m trying to change it up by rebuilding the confidence and trying to do something down here.” Dirty South’s focus is impeccable. It’s shown a constant process of growth over the years. Although he was inspired by Too Short and began rapping at 12, Dirty didn’t take rapping seriously until six years later when Cypha, a high school friend, began recording an album in Atlanta. Cypha believed in Dirty’s rhyme skills and asked him to contribute to his project. “At 18, I didn’t know what I wanted to do. But I knew I couldn’t be out in the streets forever,” he says. “That’s why when Cypha called for me, it was like a blessing in disguise. I was sleeping on myself. He had to come and wake me up.” The project turned out to be a success. And with his new confidence in rap, Dirty stayed in Atlanta and began working on a demo. Eventually, he ran in to Hard 2 Hit Co- CEO Bear, who invited Dirty to Los Angeles. Songs were made. And after a year of traveling between New York and Los Angeles, Dirty South finally completed his debut Everythang’s Gon’ Be Different. “Recording in NY and LA made me step it up a notch. It’s a whole new level of competition, so you got to adapt and step the game up,” says Dirty. “It made me plan, sit, and take time to write my rhymes. It got me focused. My motto is ‘Work now. Celebrate later.’” The focus worked, ‘cause Dirty South can’t wait for the world to hear his grimy southern flow, spiced with waves of Atlantic and Pacific Ocean breezes. And when Everythang’s Gon’ Be Different hits the globe, and Dirty South changes the world, he plans on bringing that magic right back home. “Somebody’s got to change [Mississippi]. It can’t be slow forever,” he says. “I’m about to speed it up. That’s why Everythang’s Gon’ Be Different”.
