Last night a producer by the name of Sam Doogan sent us a Soundcloud link for PierreSolo. The 23 year old rapper from Atlanta, Georgia only has 2 songs on that Soundcloud, with "Lemme Know" being 6 months old and "Mysterious Girl" a year old. According to Doogan, a music video for "Lemme Know" and a new EP from Pierre is on the way. Listen to his music below, then hit him up on Twitter and tell him to upload some more songs to Soundcloud.

WillRick was easily the weirdest, yet most interesting submission we received for the first installment of NEW WAVES. The UK rapper recorded a few songs on his MacBook's built in microphone while in Saskatoon, Canada for college. When we first listened, each of the songs only had 1 play each on Soundcloud. WillRick says: "I rap for fun, and it's cool to see what's going on in your own mind by seeing what you can write." The myesterious rapper hasn't told a single soul that he raps, but is planning on recording a mixtape for his friends' birthday, which no one else besides that friend is going to hear. He doesn't have a Facebook or Twitter page either, so we probably won't be hearing or seeing WillRick anytime soon. Rap game anonymous.

If you follow The Masked Gorilla on Twitter, than you saw NEW WAVE being thought of and created in real-time last night. Watts Infinite was actually the artist responsible for the creation of this new weekly feature. We randomly Tweeted an email for rappers to submit thier music to, just so we could take a listen. Watts Infinite was one of the first to email us. After checking out his Soundcloud we thought, how could a rapper this good only have 50 plays on his songs?! We had to share it! The 18 year old Providence, Rhode Island rapper is responsible for NEW WAVES, so listen to his music below and hit him with a thank you on Twitter.
