Holla Point

More than just another Dirty South act, Holla Point is a trio of Mississippi-born talents who rap as well as sing, and can produce their own songs as well as write them. The three Holla Point members -- Malachi, Aimos, and Trap, all of whom were in their mid-twenties upon their 2004 debut -- were born in the heart of northern Mississippi: Clarksdale. Well known as the birthplace of the blues (as well as soul legend Sam Cooke), the deep Southern city is also known as the home of such Delta blues icons as Muddy Waters and John Lee Hooker.
