Dillon Cooper is on the brink of breaking out of his shell – no pun intended (get it? Brink. Brink Brinker. Disney Movie. Rollerblades. Dillon Cooper blades.). Poised with passion, energy, and a special musical blessing, Brooklyn’s own Dillon Cooper shares the first video single off of his forthcoming debut project, Cozmik. Cooper’s musical inspiration is driven by spirit of pro roller blade skater and best friend Brian “Cozmik” Scott, who was tragically murdered during a BK robbery back in 2010.
The 19-year old may have only lived through the tail end of hip-hop’s golden era, but he packs a full flare of raw, 90’s inspiration into his music. A spunky freshness comparable to Bel-Air’s Prince, Cooper showcases his wordplay while staying very animated in front of the camera. Speaking of the camera, “Survival of the Fittest” was directed and edited by Hi-Lite Reel Boston. Stay tuned, big things coming from this young gun.

Freestyle, Hip-Hop, Videos | Dillon Cooper – Richie Rich x Shook Ones Pt. 2

Richie Rich was easily one of my favorite movies growing up. Truth be told, I still own it on VHS. The young cat Dillon Cooper takes a few moments to pause from his video game session to personify the lavish lifestyles of the music industry. Unfortunately there’s a very high saturation of individuals of “artists” in the music industry who value their appearance more than their message. Arrogance we call it. Fortunately, Dillon Cooper does not fall into that population. This kid is raw talent and proves just that on this new freestyle.
“Supreme hats nowadays is what they call swag, culture vultures flossin’ now they think they’re all that”
In addition to “Richie Rich”, the RAD leader takes a stab at the classic, “Shook Ones Pt. 2”. I’ll say it over and over again that its hard to come on this beat proper and you don’t want to embarrass yourself if you’re going to come soft. DC holds his own on this one, well done youngen. Cooper’s debut mixtape, Season 1, coming soon!
