It’s been well over a year since Steph Simon’s previous full length album, Diamonds From the Tisdale, dropped (June 2021).

That same year, Oklahoma experienced a monumental time with Fire In Little Africa, a project in which Simon took on an executive producer role while also rapping on multiple tracks. The album was signed under Motown Records, giving the many artists involved a nice achievement to add to their musical resumes. It was later awarded with Album of the Year in the 2022 OakA Awards. The album’s lead single, "Shining," received the Video of the Year award. Furthermore, Steph Simon was nominated for Artist of the Year.

Though the Tulsa rapper did put out an EP and a few singles in 2022, his focus was certainly not on dropping music, but rather making a statement. 2022 saw the creation of Tulsa McClain Records— a record label built for students of McClain High School— and the first ever Dreamland Festival. Dreamland Fest featured a variety of artists including Rapsody and LaRussell.

With that being said, Dicky Ro is back in album mode and is gearing up to release Tulsa King.
