This show is called Day 1 Radio for a reason, which is why this week\'s guest Posa is someone we think you should pay attention to. We don\'t get a lot of rappers out of Alabama, but the ones we do get definitely stand out and make an impact. Mobile, Alabama rapper and TIG recording artist Posa is no different. While he may not be a household name yet, his single "In A Minute" has already reached more than 1.5 million views on Youtube and his song "Big Dawg" featuring Moneybagg Yo is picking up steam as well. Listen as Branden Peters has a chat with the up-and-coming songwriter about his many talents and the life events that have inspired his music.
