Posted on August 2, 2023 by

Big Drip is a collective of music, fashion, and current hip hop culture showcasing some of the best talent in the game.

Big Drip is a dynamic hip-hop festival, showcasing influential artists, vibrant streetwear fashion, and an immersive atmosphere that celebrates the complete essence of the industry. It’s an unmissable event for music lovers, fashion enthusiasts, and anyone seeking an unforgettable experience filled with electrifying performances and the raw energy of urban culture.

Big Drip was created with the goal to showcase the urban industry leaders in music, fashion and culture while bringing music fans, creatives and fashion enthusiasts together under one roof,” says Greg Bechard, Big Drip Co-Founder. “With multi-platinum artists to exclusive clothing and culture brands, Big Drip plans to make an impact nation wide and provide fans with an unforgettable experience.”

Along with bringing trap to the masses as one-third of Migos, rapper/producer Quavo brings his triplet flows and personalized style to his solo releases and a multitude of other artists’ tracks as a featured guest. His 2018 solo album Quavo Huncho rose to the number two spot on the Billboard charts, and he appeared as a guest on several songs that did time in the Top Ten, including hits from DrakeJustin Bieber, and Post Malone. Quavo frequently releases new material in the form of non-album singles, and in 2022, he teamed with Migos affiliate Takeoff for joint album Only Built for Infinity Links, which also cracked the Top Ten.
 

NLE Choppa is relentless. With more than 5.5 billion total streams, 14 RIAA-certified plaques, 18 million combined followers, and two 2023 singles that found a comfortable home on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart, the superstar 20-year-old MC from Memphis has already accomplished a lot. And yet he’s constantly working to satiate the needs of his fans and prove wrong any remaining doubters. Choppa’s recent work—culminating in his new album, Cottonwood 2 is still an ante-up on every conceivable level. Choppa’s emergence in the rap game is the stuff of legend, but for the uninitiated: His Platinum-certified single “Shotta Flow” became one of the biggest rap songs of 2019 without a premiere, co-sign, or major label push. 

Desiring creative control and ownership, he partnered with Warner Records to distribute his music and future releases on his label, No Love Entertainment. Fast forward to 2023 and the technical pyrotechnics remain, but Choppa has spent more time turning inward, reflecting on his devotion to family and spirituality, and sharing more of himself than he ever has. His songs about overcoming struggles and celebrating wins have won support from Billboard, The New York Times, Forbes, GQ, and Complex. Now, he just wants the rap conversation to reflect his immense talent. “When you mention the greatest artists, or when you mention the hottest artists out right now, I have to be in that conversation,” he declares. 

Key Glock has been hailed as the new face of Memphis rap. Signed to the late Young Dolph’s at Paper Route Empire, the 24-year-old rapper stays true to his roots with an emphatic midtempo flow and trunk-rattling trap beats. Glock burst onto the scene with his Paper Route debut Glock Season in 2017, from which the single “On My Soul” has over 9 million views on YouTube. Since then, he has continued his meteoric rise with 4 solo mixtapes as well as Dum and Dummer, a collaborative effort with Young Dolph. 2018 saw Glock join forces with fellow Memphian and superstar producer Tay Keith to craft a pair of hits in “Russian Cream” and “Yea!!” The former has garnered over 86 million Spotify streams to date and has gone platinum. Key Glock has already gone gold and platinum on 6 tracks and currently in the process of getting an additional 6+ tracks certified.
