It’s been a while since we heard from Diggy (please don’t say the Simmons), but the young spitter returns today (May 6) with the Trevor Jackson-assisted “My Girl.”
We get it, diss records are a vital part of Hip-Hop. The spirit of competition in records like Nas’ “Ether” and Jay-Z’s “The Takeover,” for example, whips fans into a frenzy and keeps artists on their toes. However, more often than not, diss records come out lame.
The young fellow, Diggy Simmons, gets back to what brought him to the dance by throwing a few bars on G.O.O.D. Music’s “New God Flow.” The pop tunes may haven’t popped off as he might have wished so it looks like the good Rev’s kid is going back the freestyle route which initially brought him […]
Diggy is back on his BS as he drops a freestyle for the Jahlil Beats-produced, “Burn.” The Meek Mill/Big Sean fire starter gets an assist from the talented memeber of the Simmons clan in which he talks about burying the (seemingly one-sided) hatchet with J. Cole. The moderate success of Diggy’s debut album, Unexpected Arrival, may have […]
Diggy Simmons drops a video for “Two Up,” one of the better cuts off his Unexpected Arrival album. Even if you’re debut album underperforms its first week—and you have to defend your sister’s honor in the meanwhile—keep working if you believe in the project. Watch Diggy celebrate and party with his fan in the Clifton Bell directed […]
Hip-Hop Wired caught up with Diggy Simmons while he was out in Los Angeles and the 17 year-old son of rap royalty spoke on a number of topics including the relatively low first week sales of his Unexpected Arrival debut. “The most important thing for me was that my fans got it and they enjoyed,” […]
Yesterday, Diggy Simmons had the Internets debating whether him going at J. Cole via a diss song called “What You Say To Me” was necessary, foolish or an exercise in f-ckery. Reverend Run’s son appeared on 99.1 KGGI in Cali and explained that he was simply defending the honor of his sister, Vanessa Simmons, who happened to […]
If you came in here thinking this was an April Fool’s joke then we don’t blame you, but the young Diggy did in fact go at J.Cole for the alleged shots the Roc Nation rapper fired on “Grew Up Fast.” Diggy doesn’t exactly “Ether” his rival, but responds in kind with light buckshots of his […]
BET’s annual showcase bridging the worlds of fashion, music and entertainment aired last night.

http://cdn.springboard.gorillanation.com/storage/js/sb.html5.jsAbout two years ago, Diggy Simmons caught the attention of pop culture and the rap world by releasing his breakthrough “Made You Look” freestyle video on the Internet. With that one video, he had surpassed the aspiring rap career of his older brother, appeared on magazine covers, and dropped numerous mixtapes, revealing that Rev Run’s […]
Diggy Simmons just dropped his “88” single, featuring Jadakiss, a couple of days ago and already lets go of the PHIL directed video. Reverend Run’s son’s debut album, Unexpected Arrival, hits stores March 20th. This is where we mention that while ‘Kiss was 13 in 1988, Diggy wasn’t actually born until 1995. But hey, Diggy […]
