About Me

Abioseh Cole, born in Hartford, Connecticut on September 5, 1980, was named after his father, Abioseh Emeric Cole, who was from Sierra Leone, West Africa, and his grandfather on his mother’s side, Joseph Care, who was an Italian/American. His family was one of the few bi-racial families around in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s, and his parents were frequently harassed by members of the community, at times their families, and also the police. This only made them stronger, as they raised their three children. They told their children that the society around them would see them as black, and raised them accordingly. On Abioseh’s thirteenth birthday, his parents bought him a C.D. player, and his sister was allowed to by him Black Moon’s album. His father was a reverend and a very strict father, and so this was the first time Abioseh was able to own any Hip-hop music (though he would often sneak peeks at rap city with his sister). The next year Abioseh started to write his own Hip-hop. When he started writing, his father’s influence was very strong, but he knew that all Hip-hop was not and did not always have to be negative. After other very conscious artists, Abioseh knew that he could write some positive music. However, he knew that it would be very hard to get recognition coming out as just a conscious artist. He was determined to become a rapper and producer that could make conscious hits that could reach across the globe. Growing up in Windsor, a multi-cultural suburb of Hartford, gave him an opportunity to learn record production, in what was a very good music program, which included a Recording Techniques class. Going into high school, Abioseh was ranked in the top 5% vocally and so was in the Gospel Choir as well as the Jazz Show Choir. These classes filled his schedule, so Abioseh was only able to get into the Recording class with the help of some of his friends, and only during Study Halls and lunch. When Abioseh was able to get in the class, even though he never officially took the Basic Recording Techniques class, he started in the Advance Recording class. He learned how to produce Hip-hop by watching his friends, Coron Cole, who produced Welcome Back by Mace, Terrence “Kronos” Woodard, Frank “Gemz” Foy, and Marshall “Calmplex” Couture.Abioseh went to the Hartford Conservatory of Music, where he continued his studies of record production. He also purchased an Akai s900, a Roland Groovebox and a Roland vs840. His friend, Kyion Francis, bought a Roland R-8, and they had their first basement studio. In 2000, Abioseh got married and moved to Ghana, West Africa, for a year, and setup a studio there. There, he did some production for Ras Mohken, a well known Ghanaian reggae artist. When Abioseh returned, he had a son, and since he has been working very hard to support his family. Currently, Abioseh is a co-founder and owner of Triniiity Entertainment LLC and still produces and writes for himself and members of his entertainment company.
