hey,

I read an article in Blender (June issue; yeah, it's a crappy magazine, but I got it for free on the last day of college a week ago, I found it laying on top of the trash) hyping up an unsigned, enigmatic rapper named 'swayze' from Camden, NJ.

To be honest, the article talks about a his larger than life tale (recently came out of a 3 month coma after OD'ing on Adderall, he works in the gun trade, rarely talks to anyone in the press or industry) I haven't been able to find ANYTHING about him on the web, besides this blender article.

I've searched newsgroups, soulseek, and some MP3 blogs, and cannot find any of his songs (he's supposed to have only have recorded about 2 or 3 songs, one of them called 'bang' which appears on a NJ mixtape called 'Prawjex') nor can I find any other confirmations about him.

Any other hip-hop heads out there ever heard of him ? Is he legit ?
Can anyone kindly direct me where I can listen to one of his tracks (mods: PM's are fine, if necessary) ?

Is this just a hoax; a marketing strategy by a record company to promote their next big thing; or this real deal ?

catcha back on the flipside,
