WITHOUT STRUGGLE THERE IS NO PROGRESS

About Me

The streets of the south bronx would never be the same again.It all started in the mid to late 80's, the sound hit me and inspired me to rap. Playing in the streets of the South Bronx, with groups such as The Cold Crush Bros, Dougie Fresh, Dr Roc and the Force Md's, Kool Moe Dee. Fearless Four, Bambaata, Red Alert,Crazy Legs and the Rock Steady Crew and the list goes on.I felt the need to go further and was inspired by alot of the groups from that era. As a menber of the Zulu Nation (chapter 4),That wasnt enouph.In time it landed me a record deal under the Cutting Records label which i realeased 2 singles..."We come to Rock" and "Live it up", with a group called The Imperial Bros...at the time i felt this was not me, but the music made an impact on hip hop. But i backed away being sucked into tho glamour of the streets...Hustlin, women and cars and shut myself out of music. Years faded and money and power grew. Until one day a friend of mine DJ REd Alert asked me why i stopped rappin and that made me think i have something else to prove to myself and others.After doing a google searh of the Imperial Bros and the two titles of my singles, i realized i made a dent in the industry, being on imported albums and as well as on labels in France and a BMG album release in (2003) with 25 artist around the world artists such as DMX AND Mary J BLige and of course my old group, The latest release was a (2006 )album called the electro nation realeased in May 2006, im also featured on the dvd collection X-Mix part 3 (collectors edition) released in (2002.)... Back in the studio with a few artist to work with me. Entered a Kay Slay, Diplomat competition, won top 15 out of 200 acts, as well as peformin in shows around the city and that inspired me to keep goin...This music to me is therapy and i wont stop until me and my label mates make another huge dent.Im fighting for 15 years of publishing and royalties from them faggot ass thieves on the Cutting Records label and the money hungry punk con-artist producer employed by them as you read this...The streets is hip-hop and kats die for dissin, we can handle this in the street as my people tell me ,we dont need a courtroom..lol.. ...watch ur back when you diss....im like a persistant bastard and i wont stop,and i cant stop. I breathe hip hop and its in my veins.....ride wit me...2 be cont.. UPDATE ...JUS GOT A EUROPEAN DEAL OVERSEAS...CURRENTLY WORKIN ON THAT SICK ASS ALBUM....RIDE W ME......1
