Still holding it down: This BTY YoungN Tribute performance is PURE GREATNESS.

It’s been a few months since the tragic passing of rising hip hop star BTY YoungN. We had high hopes for him, and believed that he was up next for New Orleans. We featured his latest mixtape 2nd Feed Up on our list for hottest New Orleans projects.

Earlier this week at the Bangn in the Boot FestivalTeezy Baby, Great White Stylez, Hollygrove Keem, and Jay Jones performed their BTY YoungN tribute record Long Live King YoungN. We were in the building to capture the event, and we are glad that we made it in time. They rocked the stage in honor of their fallen brother, and the crowd loved every minute of it. They represented BTY Youngn well, and we will be following their journeys on their paths to success!
