While the Bay Area has always been the main attraction for hip hop and rap music in northern California, Sacramento rappers have been holding their own for some time now. Some can say California’s captial city always had the number one music scene of northern California, a rap scene that dates back to the 1990s, if not earlier, and has exploded throughout the 2010s and 2020s with the help from numerous mainstream rappers from Sacramento.
Rappers from Sacramento like Brotha Lynch Hung, C-Bo, T-Nutty, Hollow Tip and a few others are the pioneers that laid the original groundwork for the city’s hip hop scene and were some of the first to put the city on the map, as well as Northern California, during a time where all eyes were on Los Angeles’ gangster rap scene. While there are many similarities to the Bay Area, as well the two regions have deep ties with one another, Sacramento has its own identity that distinguish itself from other California cities and metropolitan areas.
Official Icee is excited to be at the forefront of a city that has been making a lot of new changes when it comes to the growing music scene. Icee is a talented underground artist from Sacramento. He is the founder of “Rare Ghost” an upcoming streetwear clothing line who has been worn by rappers such as Drakeo The Ruler & ect. His sound is unmatched in his City. He began his buzz with his single “Had To” dropped in April 2020. The talented up coming artist is only 23 years old and is yet to show what he is capable of.
Icee displays his ability to hold his own force with the top names in the industry. He never fails to inspire a head nod, and his lyrics are catchy and quotable enough to be screamed back to him from adoring audiences on big stages.
The underground artist is a relatively newcomer to the industry. Nobody knew who he was even a year ago. But now he’s on everyone’s mind. People are talking about him and his music everywhere. He is finally receiving the credit he deserves for his talent and craft.
