Northwest artist "Huey P" is a great young talent raised in Washington's Tacoma/Seattle Area. Huey immersed himself in the sights and sounds of the Emerald City. A storyteller to his very core, Huey began rhyming as a way to tell the world about his experiences as a young man striving to succeed. After teaming up with Tjyolo Ent., Huey began to hone his skills on the local concert circuit, opening up for many well known artists that came through the Northwest, as well as becoming a respected headlining act in the Pacific Northwest. Catching the eye of DJ VIP, Huey recorded an EP with the Los Angeles DJ titled "Did You Get The Message." The project was so well received by hip hop fans that it urged Huey to ride the momentum into a Mixtape project with none other than DJ Drama. With appearances from such figures as Ty Dolls $ign, Tory Lanes, Cassidy and J. Winans, Huey decided to titled the project "206253," to show his loyalty to the people of the Evergreen State, which is available now.
