Recently, Manolo revealed how he came up with the mixtape title and explained how rappers like 50 Cent and 2Pac influenced his new project. Watch what he had to say after the jump!

On Monday night in NYC, Bed-Stuy native Manolo Rose held his private listening session at the Born Fly studio for his new EP entitled Concrete Rose. It was a star-studded event with music by Hot 97’s own DJ Bobby Trends along with media coverage from every major Hip-Hop news outlet such as XXL, InFlexWeTrust, The Source, Vibe, HipHopSince1987 and many others. Manolo and his crew performed each track off the EP with so much energy, giving us a visual of the tape he’s put so much hard work and effort into. After being able to attend the event and hear it for myself, I am most DEFINITELY a fan of the “Run Ricky Run” rapper. Check out some footage from the listening event below!
