"Hotshot aka Mr Whatz Happenin"

“The momentum of the local hip-hop movement may bring Augusta out of Atlanta’s shadow. Hotshot, whose real name is Terrence Wilson. This former military man credits his overseas experience for his current success. Inspired by Marvin Gaye, Sam Cooke and Southern hip-hop artists like Outkast and Eight Ball, Wilson tries to create his life story so that even the negative events are used as a learning experience. “Negative things help move towards positive,” Wilson said. He’s recently adopted the moniker Mr. Whatz Happenin. It underscores the importance he places on being positive, and in being proactive for the local hip-hop community. “I’m not doing this for the fame. To me, I’ve been famous. I do it for the love of my home while giving y’all my story.” In the meantime, he’s bringing his music home and connecting with other artists for the benefit of the whole community. It sounds like “Hotshot” may be too selfish a name to suit him. ” - Metro Spirit

"Seven Day Friday Review"

“Laid back flow,catchy hooks and lyrics are what come to mind when listening to Hot Shot's"Seven Day Friday." The content is real and the subject matter relates to today's male/female relationships (or encounters). street life, as well as grinding for ones hopes and dreams. You also get a dose of some cool beats and a taste of a few decent collaborations. One track that stands out on the mixtape is "Stallion. This track caters to the best of the "Stallion women" and is a few steps up from calling women bitches. Cuzzo is a featured artist on "Stallion" and helps compliment the track. To conclude, this mixtape has a commercial-type sound with an underground feel. Overall "Seven Day Friday" was a solid project and a pretty decent listen.” - Coast 2 Coast Magazine

Walking in the footsteps of legendary James Brown, the Augusta native is putting in work to bring some attention to another “A” city in Georgia. ” - The Music Plug
