To begin is to enter what is known as the beginning of a new chapter, the start of a journey, a saga perhaps. Out of this emerges A.R. The name alone can stand for many acronyms such as the legendary Assault Rifle/ or After Ransom etc... But here before you stands Anee Reazon. A.R. Was born in Brooklyn, NY. A nomad if you will moving to E. 233rd street in the Bronx, NY up to the age of 10 from there moving to Yonkers, NY and from there retreating back to his roots in East New York, Brooklyn. Where he’s been for the past 18 years. Life in Brooklyn wasn’t easy. The streets raised him to what has become of him today. The love of listening to some of his favorite M.C.’s like Spoony G, Big Daddy Kane, Kool G. Rap, Rakim and Eric B., Craig G., etc… to name a few this infused his talent to unfold, writing rhymes at the age of 7. It started as a just a pastime a hobby of some sort which lead to writing poetry and short stories. From there; as his skills progressed so did his love for music and poetry. And as his love for music and poetry grew so did his audience, and that’s when he realized that this was where he belonged. His name up in lights next to the other greats before him and those to come. As an artist without management or well known representatives its been a long and hard struggle for him to obtain a record deal states A.R.. Beginning his musical journey he started in a group founded by him and 2 other high school friends(Da Untouchables),which led him to join a super group(Code: Black Committee).By the year of 2001 the group which was formed in high school was demolished due to lost of friendship and/or lost of communication. But the super group remained and was beginning to flourish as a well known local rap group performing at various showcases and events including opening for the Uptown Comedy Clubs traveling performances, The Showboat; solo performances include The Elite Ark /The Roseland / and The Ballroom . Besides featuring on various local D j’s mix tape compilations such as D.J. N-S-Pee/ Naydee/ Will/ Damills/ Showtime/GTA 2091(France) and a host of others. When friends and family started hearing him on the underground radio stations (95.1 Fm) and attending showcases is when he received the inspiration to take it to the next level. Which entailed him being a local legend for rapping in his community joined up with another living legend and Central PA Hip Hop Award Winner(Niagra) of Harrisburg, PA., coming together to follow the footsteps of great entrepreneurs such as Russell Simmons, Sean Carter, Sean Combs, Clive Davis,L.A.Reid,Lyle Cohen, etc.; In forming hip hops newest indie label to take over were they left off is 71718 Entertainment. A combination of one of the best from Brooklyn (718) and mixing it with one of the best in HBG. (717). A force not yet reckoned with or for that matter one to run from challenge. With there current debut "The PANYC" album also with a very close follow up mix tape released this spring titled “T.W.I.O.(The Wait Is Over)â€. A.R. the voice of reason, and once you hear his voice you’ll be yearning for more reasons to listen than to hate.
