We feel
at TracHouse there are different levels of success whether you just
starting out or been on a roll for ten years so we provide a platform for
people to tell their story no matter what level they are on with music
always being the underlying tone. Southeast Hip Hop Magazine: Aside from music and your radio show, what other business ventures do you have going on?

off with just t shirts & hats but we are expanding this year to a

side of things where we focus on rebuilding properties in run down
areas to help those areas become more prosperous .
