About "Southside"
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS July 4, 2024,— Mack 9 Music Group, LLC and CLR Music Group, LLC are proud to announce the release of the new single titled “Southside” by Cros (pronounced Cross), Lon Don and Glockyona. A family collaboration, “Southside” is a mixture of blues and hip hop telling the life of growing up on the southside of Chicago. [Blues & Hip Hop, a historical moment].
Not being new to the game; veteran artist, Cros has been into blues since he was born. His parents (L.C. and Willa Mae Mack) were blues artists, along with being appreciators of true blues. Cros was indoctrinated into the blues very young, he has worked with such greats as James Cotton, Lucky Peterson, Koko Taylor and hip hop group Cypress Hill. Cros brings his heart, blood, sweat and tears to these genres.
At a very young age, Lon Don is no stranger to blues and hip hop as well. Being the grandchild of two great blues artists, along with his uncle Cros, he has all the right stuff. Holding his own, Lon Don has worked with hip hop greats such as Kanye, Jay Z and Traxster. Bringing an intense performance to every concert, Lon Don is the real deal and is a force to be reckoned with.
The youngest of this collaboration, Glockyona, the great-granddaughter of the Mack blues family holds it down and commands her respect. Glockyona has worked with the greats as well, artist such as JEEZY, Gucci Mane and Finesse2Tymes. Remembering her great-grandparents, listening to them perform and listening to so many blues greats, she knows what blues and hip hop is all about.
This new single “Southside” brings up the lives they have lived to present day, on the southside of Chicago. There have been many attempts to combing these two genres’ of blues and hip hop in the past, but Cros, Lon Don and Glockyona have perfected the formula. Giving you a full ride into the life of a not so perfect world we live in from the Southside of Chicago perspective.
