An upcoming hip-hop artist that goes under the name of "JWTM" (short for "Jack Worthy Topp Martian" or mostly nicknamed "JoeySideFire" on his YouTube channel), had actually dropped a cover to Mac Miller's "Loud" on March 13, 2013 as the lead single to his debut mixtape, Fast Kid Rapper. This is not relevant to this article, however, and is actually just a way for this no-name artist to shamelessly promote himself on the page of an artist who has already established himself in the hip-hop industry.
