There was a time that when you thought of the future, talking robots and flying cars came to mind. When Grand Hustle/Interscope recording artist Yung LA opens his mouth, talking slick with flying colors, you know that the future is staring you in the face.
The man behind the south-eastern anthem and soon to be national hit Ain't I, Yung LA is the newest member to the Interscope family and will be releasing his highly anticipated debut album Futuristic Leland first quarter 2009. The album will feature T.I. and the rest of the Grand Hustle roster with production from today's top hit makers.
"Each song will be different, I may be swag rapping, but I'ma hit you with bars too," promises the burgeoning 22-year old star born Leland Austin. "It's a new way of hip hop and a new way to express it. There's nothing I can say that the next man hasn't said, it's just the way I say mine and the way I paint the same picture with different colors."
After working in the shadows of producer/rapper tandem Zaytoven and Gucci Mane, LA caught the ear of Grand Hustle recording artist Young Dro in 2006. That first impression with Dro and the rest of the Grand Hustle team led to Yung LA signing with the label in 2007.
