Remember when Rose City rapper Aminé took out that giant yellow billboard in Portland that read: "YES, THERE ARE BLACK PEOPLE IN PORTLAND"? Wild. The now LA-based rapper is by no measure anyone's underdog (his latest freestyle, "Places + Faces," both boasts and laments his new "different city every weekend"-type lifestyle), but there's still something down-to-earth about him. ONEPOINTFIVE, Aminé's most recent EP/mixtape/album/whatever, pulls from a diverse range of references (from Jack Black to Chingy), his moods quickly changing from reflective ("Dr. Whoever") to silly ("Cantu"). Plus, his shows often feature a giant, colorful, and interactive backdrop.
