Indie Rap Artist Smoky Bare Releases New EP "Kansas To California"

Indie rap artist Smoky Bare is proud to announce the release of his new EP "Kansas to California". The release occurred on March 18, 2013 and follows his previous mixtape "Burgundy Hills" released at the end of last October.

Dateline: Los Angeles, California, April 11, 2013 – Indie Rap Artist Smoky Bare, whose musical roots stem from the influences of 50 Cent, Jay-Z, and Nelly is pleased to announce the release of his new EP, "Kansas to California". As part of the kick off of his performance career, Smoky Bare will appear this April 11 in Houston Texas for Coast2Coast LIVE. The show starts at 9pm located at Warehouse Live, 813 Saint Emanuel St. Houston, Texas.

Smoky Bare is from Kansas but has recently moved to Colorado. A young, talented blessed lyricist; Bare loves to combine his original hip-hop beats with reality experiential lyrics that will carry listeners to a unique and unforgettable emotive experience. Right now Bare is happy to give away much of his music for free to develop a loyal fan base, which can be obtained at various music distribution sites across the internet, including Datpiff.com

Bare had this to say about his writing and music style, "Something that pushes me and really helps me keep my focus is something a homie of mine told me, 'If you don't have much to offer the world that they couldn't find anywhere else then you're not a money maker and that's how it works.' Often times I find myself being jealous or inspired by other artists' work and I might try something similar. If my work is different but still similar, I end up unfortunately, with something unoriginal. This is why I try to be completely different, so I won't make it sounding like someone who's already out. If I do, I might be able to make a hit but It's just not me. I don't care to have everybody like me because being different at the start never starts out cool. I know I'm cool, and offer many gifts, so it's just a matter of time before I develop a loyal audience of fans. I really am that confident."

Bare is very excited about his prospects and is in the process of producing a new track in collaboration with Ski Beatz, the legendary producer who has worked with Jay-Z and Curren$y. He also also recently launched his official Artist profile on MTV.

Recently, Smoky Bare has signed with The WiFi PR Group, based in Los Angeles California for representation.
