Super Producer Mr. Hanky Teams Up With Treal Lee and Prince Rick Again for the Hot New Club Banger “It’s A Party”

Atlanta, GA – December 18, 2011 – With the previous success of one of the most radio played singles of 2011 “Throwed Off”, Super Producer Mr. Hanky and Treal Lee and Prince Rick has teamed up again for another historical club banger entitled “It‟s A Party”.


This time last year no one could deny or escape the catchy lyrics and heavy drum chords of one of the most talked about club records of the year, “Throwed Off”. Hip hop mogul and Young Money CEO Lil Wayne also couldn‟t deny the urge to rap to such an arrangement and decided to give his stamp of approval by freestyling over the top of Mr. Hanky‟s hot beat in his latest mixtape “Sorry for the Wait”. Determined to reach that same level of acclaimed success, Mr. Hanky has produced a blazing new party single for the club. Laced with the jagged sound of live acoustic guitar strings in the background and entangled with synchronizing chords and mellow drums, Mr. Hanky has definitely come back onto the music scene equipped and ready to surpass the success of his previous Treal Lee and Prince Rick produced single. “It‟s A Party” is guaranteed to keep the clubs and airwaves live.


Many people today say that we are coming into a new age of hip hop known as “The Dance Hip Hop Era”. When asked about his insight on this trend in a recent Fansite TV interview Mr. Hanky responded, “Even in the „golden era‟ of hip hop you had the Fat Boyz who were rapping about the ABCs. When you had your Big Daddy Kanes you still had your humpty humps and you still had your MC Hammers.” He then replied, “You have to have your four elements and dance is a part of it.”


As the producer behind so much of the iconic music that shapes the south‟s hip hop today, Mr. Hanky has cast a brilliant and highly prolific shadow in the music business. Most recently, he has completed tracking on some of hip hop‟s most respected and chart topping artists in the music industry.


Mr. Hanky‟s production includes : Waka Flocka Flame, Gucci Mane, Lil Chuckee, Young Jeezy, Lil Jon and the Eastside Boys, V.I.C., Treal Lee and Prince Rick, Soulja Boy, and Travis Porter just to name a few. Mr. Hanky‟s sizzling, versatile and brilliant hip hop sound will continue to resonate with millions worldwide.

TONI MONROE “BIGGEST BITCH IN THE GAME” NEW MIXTAPE | BIG GIRL COOKIES/FIRST BATCH | 01.05.12

VAN NUYS, California (December 15, 2011) — In an industry saturated with booty shaking females and dudes oozing with street credibility... Enter TONI MONROE, a Cali-bred MC from Van Nuys, armed with the swag of a hustler, the flow of a veteran and a style to make even the most skeptical, take a second look. Her rising success and increasing buzz has placed her in the top three female artists, according to female rap icon Lady of Rage. Toni Monroe has rocked with some of the best, opening up for artists such as, E- 40, Lil Kim, Mobb Deep, Nelly, Ja Rule & Ashanti, Ice Cube, Mack 10, WC, Bone- Thugs-N-Harmony, DJ Quik and Fat Joe.

Although hip hop allowed her to find her voice, it has been a struggle being white and heavy in an industry dominated by black males, and where only a few great female emcees have made their mark. “I have heard it all from, “She’s fat and white!” to “How can we market this?” Toni’s mission is to spark, inspire and motivate change, “The voices of women in hip hop are almost absent these days, minus a few sisters, who the industry are “letting” hold us down... they need help, and we need to make sure they get it. Whether you’re black or white, gay or straight, big or small... she represents for ALL the ladies.

Toni Monroe is currently working on the release of her latest project “Big Girl Cookies | First Batch”, a mixtape dropping January 5th, featuring West Coast Legends, Kurupt and DJ Crazy Toones. This latest masterpiece delivers hard hitting beats with heavy lyrical content that will appeal to both the mainstream hip-hop heads and underground fans alike. With her underground notoriety on lock, she is definitely turning heads for all the right reasons. They say it’s a man’s world, but it’s definitely under Toni Monroe’s supervision.
