About Me

I have been doing music since the age of five when I would play the drums after sets that my father (the legendary saxophonist Vince Wallace) was playing at jazz clubs. I started my Hip Hop career in 1985 as a bboy, the best in my school at the time. I moved on to master the art of Graffitti starting in 1988 under the guidance of my then mentor and longtime friend Heist tpc aka Gigs one fsc. My crew Fsc began freestyling songs to four track tapes over beats by an old Roland drum machine until we started making our own beats. This is earlie 90's era 90-92 that we were developing our flows. My first songs were on Universal Joint an underground group from Berkeley from that era. My first solo song is called "Emergency"92 produced by JSquash Donut Productions. My first big shows were in 93 when Fsc opened up for an incredible lineup: Nas, Fugees, Jamalski, Volume 10 and Schooly D. Other functions put the crew on the map as emcee's during that time like "No Justice No Peace" were a spontaneous cypher formed and a 3 on 3 ryme battle started with Age and Saafir on my team, we smashed on these fools. As the years went on I continued to bomb graff and ryme taking in epic tour to Amsterdam and Danmark in 94 when I went all out and crushed city's and bombed trains and rocked mics with my main man Gigs and More from Danmark. Through the years I have been featured on various mixed tapes and projects, released my first tape in 97 called FSC. In 98 we recorded the underground classic album FSC Oneness which would not get released until 2001. Since then I have released and been featured on other projects like FSC ep and Gigsters "Off the tracks" No. I and II. and recorded endless tracks for future projects like my solo effort "The Destroyer" coming soon! In the late 2004 I hooked up with Bomb Hip Hop and signed for the release of "Natural Reaction" a soon to be classic produced by Fanatik who's known for his presence in the Bay Area from releases such as Rasco's unnassisted and Planet Asia's first EP and various others to name. Went touring with the DJ's and MC's tour featuring: DJ Quest (space travelers), DJ TRok (1200 Hobo's), DJ DNA, Azeem and Z-man (Heiroimperium). And have had steady shows since the beginning of 2005.
