We bring to you Tela James the corner stone of the Southern pioneers of Hip Hop/ Rap. The Southern Legend, Tela is one of the infamous trailblazers who lit and paved the way for all the South Hip Hop/ Rap artists to follow. He created the blue print, which fashioned the beginning of the Hip Hop culture in the South. His first album in 1996 went gold under Suave House Records/Tony Draper, CEO. This was around the same time that artists like Scarface of The Ghetto Boys and No Limit came on the rap scene. This era was also known as the “Rap-A-Lot Movement.”
