“When the 707 area code is mentioned, people mainly think about Vallejo; sometimes about Fairfield or Vacaville, because a couple of artists have emerged from these cities recently. However rarely do I hear anything about Humboldt County. Probably due to the fact that not too many people represent this region. Among few you will find Hiway hailing from its largest town - Eureka. The currently reviewed mixtape is the rapper's third part of "Wayhi Certified" series and it was released shortly after two previous ones. This time it's subtitled "R.T.I.", which stands for "raping the industry". Hiway has a point saying that rap - especially mainstream - is filled with cliches. If an artist is not going to follow the standards, he shouldn't expect major acclaim. This series tries not to comply with the rules, even break them, hence the title "rape" of the industry. The only thing to win the favor of a potential listener, who most probably hasn't heard of Hiway yet, are jacked beats. ”

“More news about Humbold County representative by the name of Hiway. We've mentioned that he released two mixtapes on August 10th. The second one is the volume 4 of his "Wayhi" series that dropped under Beautiful Boi Records. This time you'll receive 15 full-length tracks with all of them being solos apart from one exception by an Oklahoma underground artist Big Slack. This mixtape also features a single "In My Life" that even got some radio play on KJNY 99.1. This mixtape is also available in digital format at CD Baby. Visit Hiway at his MySpace page. Peep the tracklist below: (show tracklist) ”
