| Hip-hop heads always want to know: What's hot? Who's buzzing? What's banging? And whose got the sh*t? As heads fall all over each other as they pursue the new, the old is left behind and the future doesn't matter. With the advent of the Internet and its music downloading capabilities and IM, MP3s, Ipods and text messaging, there is no past, there is no future, there is only what is happening right now, especially for new artists. The hottest new artist in hip-hop with all the buzz is Mista Cavi with his banging new joint “Raw & Uncut pt. 2”. The first album “Raw & Uncut pt. 1” was the sh*t, as anyone who has downloaded it can surely tell you.
In 2005, Mista Cavi made an album of his mix-tapes entitled “Raw & Uncut.” Purely on the strength of talent and street savvy of Mista Cavi, his hit laden, underground CD exploded onto the streets, selling over 27,000 units (CDs). He sold the hotly sought after CDs out-of-the trunk of his car in just three months. This landed Mista Cavi in a position to market his music nationally. That’s when Cavi released his Biggest Mixtape “The Takeover” which got him national recognition including a big report in The Source Magazine.
For those who don't truly understand what the term Cavi really means … It's like this: The word Cavi is a term first born on the boulevards, avenues and cruising strips of the streets of black Los Angeles. The term Cavi is an expression of the supreme appreciation for what is considered to be the most elite style, flavor and attitude most respected on the streets at any particular time. Cavi represents the very best of what every body likes and respects out there where the players play and the killers slay. Cavi is what catches the eyes and the ears. Your clothes can be Cavi, your car can be Cavi … even the way you walk and talk can be Cavi. And certainly the work of a master rapper/lyricist can be Cavi.
That being said - imagine what it means to be known as Mista Cavi, and to not only use the name with maximum understanding of the term's full meaning and impact, but to actually be it.
“Having Cavi talent is just a blessing that was given to me. You know-I-mean? It's natural. It's not like something that I'm trying to do. Just listen to my music and you'll feel me,” says Mista Cavi.
You can't help but feel Mista Cavi on his breakout 16-track CD “Raw & Uncut pt.2.” Before heads can stop talking about Mista Cavi's first leak from the CD, the trunk music banger “Get Hi,” they will be talking about the raw emotion of "U Can Be My B*tch” and the cut “Game” featuring Suga Free and Kokane. Then the buzz will start all over again with the track “Un Huh” featuring Justin Fargas of the Oakland Raiders.
Mista Cavi wrote all the songs on the CD with help from hit making Cali producers Kenny McCloud (“Un Hun" featuring Justin Fargas) and DaNeckbones (on 4 tracks). East Coast producer Spliffed Out and Interscope in-house producers also put in work on the CD.
Hip-hop may have started in New York but L.A. took it to the next level. With no other Hip-Hop artist representing Los Angeles (L.A. is not Compton, Long Beach or Wattz). Mista Cavi is reestablishing Los Angeles as the spearhead for the cutting edge of grimy hip-hop with his new CD “Raw & Uncut pt.2.”
