G-Unit/G-Note New Music: Young Hot Rod "Unreachable" (feat. J-Son) Official Music Video
All you G-Unit fans, I am sure you know who
Young Hot Rod is and if you dont know, you need
to know. Here is some new music from Young Hot
Rod called "Unreachable" feat. J-son.
Raised in Sacramento, California until the age of
20, Hot Rod worked as mortgage broker until
spotted by the G-Unit boss 50 Cent, who signed
him to his label in 2006. Hot Rod would send his
homemade demo CD to 50 Cent's G-Unit office's
in hope the record label would sign him. After 50
Cent heard the CD he thought that Hot Rod's easy
flow reminded him of his own. It was December
2005 when the 20-year-old rapper received a call
at his day job as a mortgage broker, and it wasn't
from any random G-Unit associate but 50 Cent
himself.
Hot Rod started in hip-hop as a teenager in the
late ‘90s, making beats. “When my pops made me
his assistant music engineer at the church. That's
when I realized my passion for music,” he reflects,
“I've always had it in my blood so there was no
stopping me from that point on.
Hot Rod's music style has varied over his career,
his first single "Be Easy" which featured Mary J.
Blige, was of the Hip hop/Rap genre, but it later
changed when touring over in Europe. He said this
about his new style of music, "I've enhanced my
style to something more worldwide. I have
records that are 130bpm, great dance records”.
Since joining G-Unit Records, Hot Rod has stayed
touring and performing in over 20 countries. “My
making is something that you wouldn't expect
from a G-Unit artist and it’s helping me stand on
my own two feet, Its definitely a good way to
brand myself as an artist with my own sound.”
On December 16, 2010 after four years of waiting
Hot Rod released his second ever single, and first
album called "My Life". This was the first single
ever to be released under the newly formed under
G-Note Records / G-Unit Records label. In an
interview with vibe magazine Hot Rod revealed
that his album, which is called "My Life", is slated
for a summer 2011 release date. He also stated
that he had been working with producers such as
David Guetta, Akon and Pharrell. Hot Rod has
been recording music for his debut album, which
was previously called "Fast Lane", since he had
signed with G-Unit in 2006. Hot Rod tweeted that
he was working with Snoop Dogg on his album.
In early 2011, a preview of Hot Rod's second
single off the album, which is also called "My
Life", leaked onto the internet.
