[email protected]''2smuvAli aka YounG RichiE'' was Born in Newark, NJ. He was raised there by his mother and Sister. He said his first rap when he was 5 years old. He and part of his Family later moved to Atlanta, Ga in 1996. Atlanta is where he became interested in learning and recording music. The snap music was just coming into play when he moved to Atlanta. He mixed his up North ''SWAG'' with his Atlanta's ''SWAG.'' He then began to save money to buy a home studio and the rest is history. He started his music career since then and the rest is internet history. People were feeling his unique style and mentality of he and his music. When people would ask him where he was from he would say "Jersey," he didn't want to forget about his hometown so he would mention it. In the year of 2006 he linked up with POP IT OFF BOYZ, Young Envy and former Rapper known as Lowkey Riez. He then started doing shows across the country; mostly Sweet 16 parties, Skating Rings, and Private Parties. He has crossed-over to all nationalities already. He created a music Myspace site (Myspace.com/2smuvali) so that his fans could get closer to him. At the end of DEC 2007 he's now trying to break history on Myspace as an independent artirst. Its hard for any independent artist to touch him. He's trying to get rated 1 on Myspace out of 30million independent artists. Many Indie Record labels are interested in him. His favorite labels are Roc-A-Fella, Atlantic, So-So-Def, Cash Money, P$C, DTP, Jive, and Universal South/Universal Music Group.Growing up in the ATL 2smuvAli says he’s seen it all. He grew up middle class. I wouldn’t say He was poor but he wasn't much wealthy either. He came from the streets of a bad enviroment. 2smuvAli who never fails to credit his mother for her love and encouragement; says he didn’t always follow the straight and narrow to become this terrific individual as he has became. He admits to getting his hands dirty. It has a lot to do with the people that he surrounded himself with. Sometimes the people you grow up with tend to lead you astray. He was in the streets ''GRINDING'' as you would say. He's seen much more things in the streets. Everything that he talks about he's lived it or experienced. He just tries to do what's right for his future, family, and prove to everyone that change is possible. For him to be that young he has experienced many ups and downs. Throughout all of the struggles and pain that built a maze of frustration inside him which then gave him the strength that he needed to become what he believed in becoming. Music then grew apart of DA GREAT 2smuvAli's career.It wasn’t long before 2smuvAli realized that the realities of his life; though they made great fodder for rap music were bound to be his undoing sooner or later. At some point you have to step up and start being a man and start making manly decisions. That makes you the person you are. He chose to leave the streets because a lot of his ''homeboys'' lives were ending at a young age or either going to jail. 2smuvAli was lucky to have those guys in his life to show that they were different individuals. He had to make a change in order to create the road he was headed towards. He took that lesson and learned from it as it slowly faded away drawing a new path to lead. That has a lot to do with the person that he has become today. The streets have actually taught him the ins and outs.If anything truly good came out of 2smuvAli’s pain and frustrations; it is indeed the realness that it allows him to inject into his music and convey to his listeners. It’s that realness that makes 2smuvAli aka YounG RichiE a true contender in the competitive genre of music and other career fields. He feels to be competition to other artists who tend to step in his way. He says ''Without the slightest hint of modesty when you’re in the game and you have longevity and you don’t worry about what another artist is doing; that’s what makes you a better person.'' That’s the motive he lives by. He's not really worried about being the next anybody. He just wants to be the best 2smuvAli aka Yung Gino. I feel like he has a chance if he keeps on heading in the direction he is going. Through some downfalls to get to where he plans to be was definitely worth the fall, struggles, and frustrations. ''Love it.'' I can definitely see him doing this for the next five or ten years.â€With Hip-Hop and Soul being the two major genres in the Rapper, songwriter, and producer's love for music; 2smuvAli brings a refreshing male sound to the music world. Combining Soul and Hip-Hop with his multi alto voice just may earn him the tittle Prince Of Hip-Hop/Religion King in the near future. With influences like: Lil Wayne, T.I., Young Jeezy, Ludacris, Tevin Campbell, The Jacksons, Chaka Khan, Marvin Gaye and The Temptations; this self proclaimed "Hood Rapper" has plenty of soul to bring back and enough hip-hop to keep it hood. The College Park, Georgian native has been rapping ever since 5 years old. As i've said once before, Growing up in a family where music played apart of their everyday life it was destined that he had a passion for music. Performing in both public talent shows and school Talent shows gave 2smuvAli more of a drive to persue something he knew he loved. 2smuvAli received his first karaoke machine when he was just nine years old. He learned to write lyrics, count music bars, perform harmonies and melodies all on his own.2008 he became more into his craft and developed a passion for producing music as well. 2smuvAli bought his first keyboard. With producer heroes: Rodney Jerkins, The Neptunes, Timbaland, and Lil Jon; 2smuvAli took what he heard and learned to create his own style and sound. Other proucers like Kanye West and Bryan Micheal Cox have also inspired 2smuvAli to be different. His vision has always been to perform on beats that were unique and original as his lyrics were. I think that is what makes an artist remembered. I think thats what makes a music legend." 2smuvAli'' attended a school where he studied music. 2smuvAli's main goal was to become a triple threat. He always performed in many school talent shows from his elementary years all the way to high school. 2smuvAli has always won 1st place of the talent competitions and he always gave a rememerable performance. The last talent show 2smuvAli performed in was Haters Idol hosted by the School's administrators. 2smuvAli performed in the competition three weeks in a row and performed every round like it was his last. That only made him hunger more and explore other options. It was never about winning, He just wanted people to recognize his dedication and committment to music.He also wanted to be heard because he knew he had something that could change music forever. After so many rejections from many record lables and managements; 2smuvAli was inspired to go back into the studio and Go Harder. His demo features one of his favorite tracks called ''It Ain't Over.'' One of all songs on the demo written by 2smuvAli. Recording that song really made him feel like he was working on his Debut album because that song was just that good. On that song he was so pleased with how much his lyrics has grown and how he could do so many different sounds and play around with it. That may not be his album, but this soon to be star promised to give you a real artist, real music, and lots of real soul when he makes his debut.2smuvAli is a great listener and willing to learn new things for his big break in the industry. He's interested in working with many artists such as Lil wayne, T.I., Juelz Bandana, Ludacris, Young Jeezy, Ne-Yo, Plies, Rick Ross, and many upcomers. His favorite locals are: Rich Kids, Joe Gutta, Stack Money Boyz, & Travis Porter. If I didnt mention you as one(1) of my top picks it isnt that you're not great, Its just too many to name. I have love for everyone in da industry. Many artists have made it not because they were good but ''LUCK'' is what I call it. Im currently in school because ''EDUCATION'' comes first, Then ($)money($). I spend most of my time in the studio or writing new material. I think more then anything. My train of thought shows how much im interested in finding my own path to success. I remain unsigned and without a manager at the moment but my time is coming sooner then you think. Hopefully I land on a good label. I know soon i'll be next to blow so I wanna give a big thanx to everyone who had faith in 2smuvAli aka YounG RiChiE since day one(1).... I wont forget you I PROMISE!!!!
