Live from the heart of Pomona at the electrifying Limelight event hosted by Dapper Up Entertainment, Huggy Duzit @huggyduzit stepped into the spotlight—and immediately made it clear he came with bars and bold energy. He gave the crowd a dose of his lyrical flow before catching an interview with Mark F the Realist outside. His journey into music? It started young—fronting pop punk bands in high school before evolving into a solo hip-hop force in college when unreliable bandmates pushed him to go it alone.

What makes Huggy stand out isn’t just the genre switch—it’s the raw passion and creative independence that fuels his sound. From moshing with guitars to snapping necks with wordplay, he’s built his lane brick by brick. As beats dropped and verses cut through the air like warning shots, Huggy’s presence at Limelight wasn’t just a performance—it was proof that no matter where you start, the grind will take you exactly where you’re meant to be.

The Dapper Up Entertainment Limelight event lit up with raw talent and real stories—and right at the heart of it was Des.the Diva @iamdesthediva , one-fourth of The Heavyweight Podcast and its only female voice. With passion and poise, she broke down how the show dives deep into everything from mental health to marriage, while also showcasing rising stars in the culture. Her recent interviews with names like Sunni Babel and IE’s own Scrappy G @scrappie.gee prove she’s not just talking—she’s curating moments. Desi’s presence is a reminder that authenticity and representation still matter, and her podcast? It’s where real conversations live.

Then came a twist in the night’s vibe—straight from Connecticut, comedian Josh Shakespeare.@Josh Shakespear hit the stage with sharp wit and a hilarious, unfiltered set. He joked about Pomona feeling like a post-apocalyptic movie set, but behind the laughs was a deeper truth: his comedy was born from trauma, shaped by observation, and sharpened by experience. Josh peeled back the curtain on the highs of making people laugh and the lows of self-doubt and comparison, all while teasing upcoming live TikTok streams and a comedy show in San Diego. It wasn’t just entertainment—it was an open mic that felt more like a movement.

The night at the Dapper Up Entertainment Limelight event was electric, blending music, art, and community into a soulful celebration. As the crowd roared, the host hyped up the next performer—Adrian—with a proper Pomona welcome. Meanwhile, outside the venue, Zay caught up with Sol, the creative force behind “Sol es Artes,” a business rooted in sustainability and poetry. With deep roots in spoken word and underground hip hop, Sol turns discarded items into meaningful, upcycled art, channeling her childhood passion for transformation into every piece she creates.

The spotlight also turned to an artist and host representing the IE, who’s not just dropping bars but also building platforms for others. With albums like Sinner Child and tracks such as Before I Love Myself and No Fraud, his music explores emotional depth, self-love, and cultural pride. Even songs like Yo Quero, rapped in Spanish, tell a personal story—paying homage to the Latino household that raised him, despite not being Hispanic by blood. It was a night where artistry met authenticity, where every voice had weight, and every performance reminded the crowd what real storytelling sounds like.

The crowd was buzzing, the energy was wild, and the mic was finally back in the hands of a seasoned emcee who hadn’t graced an open mic in over a decade. With the words, “Top 3? Me, myself, and I,” @lifeisonnie set the tone, delivering bars that hit hard and laced with clever metaphors—including a slick Indiana Jones reference that got the whole room reacting. It wasn’t just nostalgia; it was a reminder that true talent never leaves, it just waits for the right moment to reemerge.

After his set, we caught up with Sonnie babble, who had just rocked the stage with an unreleased track titled Marty Bird. With witty wordplay and sharp delivery, the song had already been making waves on Instagram, thanks to the visuals that brought it to life. Sonnie revealed he’s been crafting music for over 15 years, starting as a kid and growing into his artistry. Though he usually reserves his performances for select shows, he couldn’t resist the open mic magic—proving that sometimes, like the greats, you’ve gotta pop out and remind folks what real bars sound like.

The mic was hot and the vibes were real as the next wave of artists stepped up at the open mic session. Mr Nesquik @izayuhh_ jumped in to sign up, and soon after, we got a quick sit-down with Cena the Villain @villianboyz.co —an artist whose love for hip hop goes way back. He shared how his journey started young, around age 4 or 5, when his brother introduced him to Slick Rick’s legendary “Children’s Story.” That single moment sparked a lifelong obsession, with early influences like Nelly and the raw essence of hip hop shaping his sound.

As the stage lit up and the crowd leaned in, Cena’s passion was undeniable—this wasn’t just music for him, it was a calling. With his performance just moments away, the room buzzed with anticipation. From nostalgic throwbacks to fresh bars, the night kept proving why open mics are the soul of the scene. And right after Cena? The one and only That’s Hip-Hop curator—Nesquik—was ready to bring even more heat.

It was a night charged with energy and raw talent at The Limelight, where the open mic competition was more than just a showcase—it was a launchpad. As AC Wolf @acwolfofficial took the mic for an interview, he shared his journey into hip hop, painting it as a therapeutic escape and a personal lifeline. From channeling tough life experiences into verses to being inspired by the songwriting genius of Ne-Yo, AC’s and King Juice’s @kingju1c3 story resonated with both grit and creativity. Their versatility spans hip hop and R&B, influenced by icons like Kendrick Lamar, proving they’re not just performers—they are storytellers.

Meanwhile, the crowd was treated to more than just music—it was a full-on vibe hosted by Persinal @persinalofficial , with @dzyl5k1 on sound and @that_imagine in the mix. The stakes were high: tonight’s winner would earn a shot at battling lyrical juggernaut @mercutio.x and pop powerhouse Aye Sincere @ayesincere in the finals. The grand prize? A custom beat from the legendary @eugene_oneil_ Eugene O’Neil. Between shoutouts, soulful performances, and high-octane competition, one thing was clear—this wasn’t just a show. It was a moment.
