• O.T. Genasis, Lil Wayne Share 'Do It' After 'CoCo' Success

    O.T. Genasis has had trouble trying to replicate the success of "CoCo" the massive late 2014 hit that catapulted him into the public eye, landed him a label deal with Busta Ryhmes Conglomerate and gave him the opportunity to become a successful rapper. Now O.T. Genasis is trying to get back into the hip-hop discussion with a brand new tune with the feature rapper of the moment, Lil Wayne, on a new track, "Do It."

  • O.T. Genasis Releases "The Flyest"

    O.T. Genasis has unveiled the highly anticipated follow-up to his smash single "CoCo," which has become a cultural phenomenon. The Atlanta rapper's new track "The Flyest" has a similar opening to "CoCo" with anthemic operatic strings that slowly lead into a slow-walking bass line as Genasis -- whose real name is Odis Flores -- sings the highest praise of himself.

    If you thought O.T. Genasis was just going to let "CoCo" run its course naturally and fade into the memories of those who remember yelling, "I'm in love with the coco" or "Baking soda, baking soda" toward the end of 2014, you were wrong. He and Busta Rhymes's label The Conglomerate decided they needed another remix round for "CoCo" with the help of Chris Brown, following the first remix effort provided by coco experts in Meek Mill and Jeezy -- though never proven to be one.

    One of hip-hop's biggest hits toward the end of 2014 has gotten a fresh facelift to revive it kicking off the new year. O.T. Genasis's smash single "CoCo" has been given two additional verses by Meek Mill and Jeezy -- fitting, given both of their histories with the substance.

  • 5 Songs Banned in Sports: "CoCo" by O.T. Genasis, "Dixieland Delight" by Alabama, "Sweet Caroline and More

    Klay Thompson went HAM this week when his Golden State Warriors faced the Sacramento Kings last week: The shooting guard scored 37 points during the third quarter, setting the record for scoring in just one period, along with the record for most 3-pointers during one quarter. The team probably wanted to sing after finishing the game with a 25-point win, but alas the NBA and team executives have requested the team stop posting videos of the team singing its trademark song. Here are five songs that have gotten banned in sports and how they offended (meanwhile you can also check out a shortened video of Thompson's performance here via Sports Illustrated).

    Sunday night marked the ten-year anniversary of The Game's debut album The Documentary, and the Compton rapper celebrated the occasion with a star-studded concert at The Belasco Theater in Los Angeles. According to Rap-Up, he performed his classics such as "Hate It or Love It" and "How We Do" and was joined on stage by friends and collaborators including Kendrick Lamar ("Westside Story"), Tyga, Ab-Soul, O.T. Genasis ("CoCo"), Marsha Ambrosius ("Start from Scratch"), and ScHoolboy Q ("Higher").

  • O.T. Genasis's 'CoCo' Gets Vid Makeover: Cars, Women, Coco [WATCH]

    O.T. Genasis burst onto the music fan's consciousness with his cocaine-inspired single "CoCo." It has caught on like wildfire, glorifying the "love for the coco." Now his single has gotten a new music video with all the hip-hop music video stereotypes of fancy cars, scantily clad and beautiful women, big boats and, of course, Genasis's beloved coco. This new, higher-budget video comes as Genasis gets signed to Busta Rhymes's Conglomerate Records and thus more resources at his disposal. There was something raw about the original, but the new clip makes the track more accessible to mainstream viewers. Filmed in some large waterfront Miami mansion, there are plenty of twerking women on Ferraris, large piles of baking soda and overly exaggerated hand gestures. He even gets his own coco cake at the end, presumably using all of that baking soda or flour in the video. As one might expect, Busta and O.T Genasis get a few celebrity cameos from DJ Khaled, surprisingly without his headphones, and Ice Cube, who just sits off to the side in a room of his own with some random woman.
