Known for beats that pound with street muscle and drip with gutter grit, Boyz N Da Hood (BNDH) have made themselves known in the rap game with singles like "Dem Boyz" and the self-titled, "Boyz N Da Hood" released in 2005. Since then, the group has undergone some changes as Young Jeezy parted ways with the Boyz to pursue his own solo career. In his place, the group adopted its newest member, Gorilla Zoe, a fellow Atlantan MC from the mean streets. Armed with a hot new addition to the crew, the Boyz are back this year with their latest album, "Back Up N Da Chevy". The album, to be released on Bad Boy South October 2nd, features a heavily rhythmic collaboration of lyrical flow paired with those dirty southern beats that have become ever-popular on the billboards. BNDH fans will have heard their first single from the album, "Everybody Know Me", a song which showcases BNDH's self-proclaimed popularity and the world-wide recognition they receive as street savvy MCs. Two of the Boyz, Gorilla Zoe and Lee "Duke" Dixon, stopped by to chat with Teen Music about the latest album, the new group dynamic, and what it's really like to work with Diddy. Check out what they had to say below...
