Mars Hoffa Official Website | Sons of Labour, CIMC - "Confident In My Confidants": April 2010

Who is Mars Hoffa?

"I tend to want things in life I can't grasp, Sky's the limit for who? My name's Mars! So I'm thinking out of this world, Somewhere Far..." - Mars Hoffa

Moustapha Sylla better known as Mars Hoffa, born in Newark, New Jersey with Senegalese roots (West Africa) is an artist whose realities and visage are portrayed within his music, lyrical cadence, and style. Eager and passionate about his music, Mars Hoffa unexpectedly delivers something "new" while experimenting and painting pictures over an entire Ep solely produced by Rashaad Taylor titled “Black Market.” Within this installment, Mars delivers when expressing his culture yet reflecting about his immediate surroundings while elegantly channeling upbringing in Dakar and the City of Newark, immediate issues and moral gems we should live by. Still paying homage to the many different sub genres of hip hop which have helped formed his own lane, Mars Hoffa has left his mark as an upcoming artist after receiving great feedback from a broad fan base and blogs. “LONGSHOREMEN: A Prelude to Black Market” was released during the first week of August after Hoffa decided to cater to his fans who awaited “Black Market.” Black Market was released on November 21, 2013.

Thursday Night Exclusive: !LLMIND Presents BLAP Beginning at 10 pm Tonite @ Forbidden City 212 Avenue A (13th Street) New York, NY 10009

BLAP [ Beats x Love x Alcohol x Party ]
"Where the MPC becomes the turntable" - ILLMIND
Featuring: The Low, Sev Da Producer, Doc Sus and The Naysayers

- 21+ ( Extremely few exceptions)
- No Cover
- No Dress Code
- Half Price Drinks (10PM- 12AM)
- Held twice a month in NYC

- 4-6 (established and upcoming) producers supply the music backdrop for the entire night.
- Not only tailored to industry professionals, but to an unbiased crown of patrons who seek to have a new experience and eventful night
- Industry professionals such as managers, A&R's, are given the ability to build new relationships with the participating producers
- Producers will gain exposure by playing their exclusive music catalog to everyone in attendance
- Participating sponsors are promoted digitally and exposed throughout the venue

Most beat battles and producer showcases are taylored to industry professionals. But how would a general party crowd respond? B.L.A.P. (Beats Love Alcohol Party) was created to answer that question. Take four producers - a couple of known veterans and a few undiscovered talents, put them in front of a party and tell them to play their beats - its that simple. What separates B.L.A.P. from similar events is its casual nature. There is no stage and patrons are encouraged to dance. For the party goer unaware of the scene it becomes a new experience. For the industry pro, the laid back atmosphere provides a more comfortable arena to network & find their next hit producer. Created by Illmind, the producer for artists like 50 Cent, Redman, & The Jabbawockeez (ABDC's 1st season champs) who knows who will show up for this event series. Soon enough, everyone will know at B.L.A.P. - the MPC becomes the turntable.
