Bricc Gang James
By: Maurice Parrish
James Tindall aka Bricc Gang James is a young man that I watch grow up. I always knew
that he was talented but, not to the extent that he displays his craft. Bricc Gang James is
one of the up and coming producer’s in Kansas City Bricc Gang James is one of three
children of Ms Leonya Fritz. I look to see Bricc Gang James having his finger print all
over the Midwest independent music scene. Since 2010 Bricc Gang James has given the
city very good music with his mixture of Southern and Midwest flavor. I tip my hat to
you!
