Recently, two of Milwaukee's bigger names in the club scene released music videos for new tracks.

The first video comes from Ray Nitti, who is still trying to shake off the stigma of purely being a club rapper. On the new song "The Long Road Home" Nitti discusses switching up his style and that some of the reason why he didn't catapult further than he did after "Bow" hit was due to personal issues.

The second video goes in the complete opposite direction as we find Young Major rapping over a smooth Bizness Boi beat that was made specifically for the clubs and the ladies.

On "Mirror," Young Major encourages the ladies out there to dance like they do in the mirrors of their private quarters. I'm pretty sure a lot of women will like this track.
