Breakout: "Work Em"

Also Check: "Cosmic Kev Freestyle"

And: "What's Good"

Name: Young Savage

Age: 18

Reppin': Philadelphia, PA

My style and/or skills have been compared to: Jaw-dropping lyrics, mostly original with a mix of Lil Wayne and Kanye West.

My standout records and/or moments have been: My single "Work Em," Powerhouse 2011 performance, Atlantic City Summerfest performance, unbelievable record-breaking 20 minute freestyle at Power 99 radio's Come Up Show on YouTube, first and only artist in my city to get a Sneaker Villa distribution deal.

I’m gonna change the game by: Bringing real lyrics back. Real music. I want to make lyricism important again. I want to influence young kids to get up and follow their goals when they see that i've made it. I want to be everyone's motivation.

I’d Like to Work With: I'd love to work with Kanye West, Jay-Z, Drake, Lil Wayne, and anyone else as creative as them!

My goal in hip-hop is: "To live a king, die a legend, and leave a legacy." I aprecciate all the artist out now and all the artist before me. I pay homage because without them, alot of us rappers wouldn't know what to do. I'd rather be highly respected than compared on being "the best". My music will speak for itself; just hear me out.

I’m gonna be the next: ONLY Young Savage to ever do it! I want to go so hard that it'd be impossible to be another. No one will ever take my style, or title. That's just my mindset; I believe in myself 100%.
