Keeping with his love in hip-hop mantra, Perry Ellis takes Hookdiggy on his best spoiling mission for the lady he is pursuing. And he's coined a term for what it means to make the other girls jealous when you're spoiling your lady.
Journey with Hookdiggy as he talks about his music ambition and relates his journey to a mission driven for success. "On My Way", features the lovely voice of triple threat actress, writer, and singer Sunja Dannette.

Produced by his long time friend, Waxo, with additional production by Detroit Native, Jupyter, "Kill It" is a guaranteed head nodder and the melodic flow over the funky bass riffs let you know Hookdiggy can definitely still be labeled an MC.
Seeing that there is a lot of "love and hip-hop" in the world today, but not enough "love IN hip-hop", Hookdiggy breaks the normal misogynistic vibe found in rap music today to talk about what it would be like to find that "one", settle down, and make it work.
"Make It Work" is a melodic, poetic approach to a typical hip-hop love song, however features a lot of undertones of what Hookdiggy may be looking for in a life partner. Still lyrical and catchy, "Make It Work" is guaranteed to get your head moving and make the girls blush.
