Looks can be deceiving, but blown-out speakers don’t lie. Though much has been made of
YelaWolf ‘s unconventional appearance – he’s white, covered in ink and looks more like a punk rocker than your average emcee… – it’s the Alabama up-and-comer’s fresh, attention-grabbing sound that’s got the ‘net buzzing and subwoofers rattling across the nation. Drawing from classic rock, old-school rap, and the quintessentially Southern style of acts like OutKast and Three Six, Yela comes with a hard-edged brand of Trunk Muzik as innovative as it is bass-heavy.
Having racked up reader accolades for tracks like “Pop the Trunk,” Raekwon collabo “I Wish” and exclusive freestyle “Dirt Road,” as well as making guest appearances on records by the widely-renowned likes of Juelz Santana (“Mixing Up the Medicine”) and Slim Thug (“I Run”) YelaWolf recently took his hustle to the next level with the January 1, release of his Booth-sponsored Trunk Muzik mixtape. Available here for streaming and free download, the street album has gotten Yela recognized in the Booth and beyond as one of the South’s fastest-rising stars.
In an exclusive interview with our own DJ “Z,” YelaWolf steps into the Booth to discuss his feelings on the inevitable Eminem comparisons, the unfortunate state of his Chevy and just how excited he is to perform alongside OutKast DJ Cutmaster Swift at this year’s SXSW festival.
If you don’t know Yelawolf is, he sang the hook on Slim Thug’s monster smash ‘I Run‘ last year. Be on the lookout for this dude next year, he’s definitely one to watch on the come up.
