Now before, we let the horse out of the stable, keep in mind various artist have taken the stage and crossed over from Hip Hop and other Genres in to Country Music. Artist such as Beyonce, Tanner Adell, Shaboozey, Norman North, just to name a few and now Quavo.
Yes. Quavo has entered the arena of country music. His path into the arena consist of a collaboration he has created along side Luke Bryan and Teddy Swims. This new country hit is titled “Georgia Ways”. From the little we have gathered of this new album between this country trio one can hear southern sounds from deep within, with a twist of soul, and hip hop. We confidently, believe “Georgia Ways” will be the Georgia state anthem.
This project is a great ensemble for all music lovers and fans across the country. Furthermore, it is more than country music it is the opportunity for artist such as Quavo and others mentioned beforehand to cross over and solidify their artistic abilities unto all people in the world. Furthermore, creating cross culture unity in its perfect form.

“HARDEST PIT IN THE LITTER”
From personal experience we had the opportunity to work and film “Big Pokey” performing in Temple Tx in 2013 and from that day forward any and all times we meet again “Big Pokey” was always a stand up guy. There is a saying that “the good ones are always the ones we lose” and in this loss, that statement definitely holds weight. “Big Pokey” was and will forever, be known as Humble, kind, compassionate, respectful, and a considerate artist.
This is not only recognized by 3rd Coast Connection, but rings throughout the Rap culture amongst anyone that had an opportunity to interact on a personal level with this gentle giant. His ability to interact with others with the upmost concern is and was the spark that gave him the element of a genuine person, these are but few of the characteristics that solidified “Big Pokey” as the “Hardest Pit in The Litter”.
