Greed....Born to the world a long time ago. The 1st of four males born to mexican immigrant parents. Growing up he was taught to embellish his traditions and culture. Family morals were inserted deep into his heart. His parents were strict and quick with the hand to enfoce these lessons...Later in time these lessons became his survival pak! Live, Live On.
They call me "Nothen' to be Fucked with", "El Nothen' Nice"....I am the Greed. I grew up all over, from Long Beach to Norwalk, from Norwalk to Long Beach, from taggen to bangen, to prison to stage. I always made my presence felt.
I've been rippen' verses since a young buck. Ol' skool man!! L.L. Cool J, 2 Short, Erik B and Rakim, EPMD, Breaken (The Movie) and of course my family...Tha Mexikanz.
Sinful aka El Pecador and The Capital I-Man. Big ups also to my cousin Sonny Blue and
all the rest of the West.
STRUGGLE.
Yo. yo. Waz up my. My government name Juan Carlos Zavala AKA "Struggle". A twenty year old Mexican M.C. pushing out of Long Beach. Been rapping since I can remember & started writing in the mid 90's, developing styles since then. Inspired by one of my brothers "Greedy".
In 1997 both of my brothers were sent up state. I was struggling, griming & roaming the streets with out them around and had to deal with it for three years. So I started working underground with "conquistador" & "klumz" from Long Beach.
In late 1999, we formed a group called Cosa Nostra. We made hits that hit the radio with periodical spins. Cosa Nostra ended by splitting up towards the end of 2000. Greed and myself continued our hustle through the rap industry. Right away forming a "campain" known as GreedyStruggles. At this time, Risks (2nd brother) was out pushing and supporting the troops becoming the A&R/PA (Artist Rep./Personal Ass.),and helping manage the force. Constantly moving and consistantly breaking out with fresh, hot, unique music; GreedyStruggles© is being recognized more & more throughout cities. Performances throughout the Southland and near regions, Look out for... and demand GreedyStruggles in your area!
"Hip-Hop will always be my way. Free-styling & battling walk wit me all day long, no matter what I do. Stay pushing hard." Can't stop won't stop, GreedyStruggles© all the way. Peep the album to know sum more. HOLLA BACK.
