Snatcha Da Boss

It sounds like you got a great insight into Snatcha’s perspective on the music scene, especially in Tampa. It’s interesting to hear him talk about how Doechii, who’s now gaining major attention, was picking up on the game just by being around him and his brother. The way he describes Tampa’s music scene also seems pretty raw—highlighting how many artists might get caught up in the flashy rap trends rather than embracing a more authentic hip hop sound. It makes you wonder how much the city’s talent pool could evolve if more artists pushed themselves to step out of their comfort zones and maybe even collaborated more with DJs to build something bigger for the national stage. The idea of the A&R touch and how Tampa has its own vibe but still needs that broader platform to really shine is super relevant, too. A lot of talented cities don't get the national spotlight they deserve, and DJs can really be a bridge for those artists. What do you think it would take for Tampa to really get that national attention—would it be more local collaborations, or do you think it needs something bigger to happen for the city’s music scene to be recognized on that level? Doechii is on the radar of some many people that she is nom for 4 Grammy's. Wish her all the luck.
