Dillon Cooper

BET debuts the "Digital All-Stars" cypher edition featuring Emilio Rojas, Dreezy, Dillon Cooper, Two-9, Conceited and Andy Mineo.

Rumors of New York City rap's demise have been greatly exaggerated. Don't let people like Trinidad James fool you -- there are a plethora of dope acts emerging from the five boroughs and the music scene there couldn't be more exciting or diverse.

In similar fashion to Joey Bada$$ a year ago, 20-year-old Brooklyn product Dillon Cooper broke out of obscurity with his 'State of Elevation' video back in May. It didn't quite have the launch power of Joey's 'Survival Tactics,' but it did rack up over 240,000 hits on YouTube, win him an army of new fans and garner the attention of a few major label A&Rs.
