Midwest Disciples go way back when Silent D and Shadow D were in 7th grade. Back then they were called P.O.P. (Pimped Out Playaz). They had just begun writing raps in there notebooks and letting their classmates hear them. They weren’t very serious about music back then, it was just something to have fun with at school. After that they each went their own seperate ways and that kind of put the rap thing on hold. But in their sophomore year of high school they started hanging out again and decided they wanted to try and get back into the game. At first they had trouble just thinking of a good name but in the end they chose Midwest Disciples. Silent D had started learning how to use Fruity Loops and Cool Edit Pro so they decided instead of just writing lyrics down in a notebook they would actually record their songs. They recorded a couple records and then decided that they needed an upgrade. The $20 Best-Buy microphone wasn’t cutting it anymore. Currently they are in the process of building their own studio in a spare bedroom. Once everything is completed they will be recording tons of new tracks. Midwest Disciples are ready for anything that comes at them. Nothing is going to stop them in 2008.
Silent D was born in Joliet, Illinois on Dec. 27th, 1989. His childhood was not the easiest but it helped him to become who he is today. His parents got divorced before he can even remember and after that everything just seemed to get worse. He moved around to many different houses not really having one place that felt like home. When he was about 10 years old his mom went into rehab and Silent D went to stay with his grandpa. When she got out things were looking better but eventually she got back into her old habits. Susan Nowak passed away on May 5, 2002. Now Silent D really didnt kno what to do.. the same day his father who he barely knew came to get him and he moved in with him. He was living in Harvey, IL which is not a very good place to live for a young kid. This forced Silent D to grow up faster and take care of himself. The city is a south suburb of Chicago and full of drugs, gangs, and violence. This is where Silent D gets a lot of inspiration for his music. He tells about the things that he sees in his everyday life. He started out just rapping as a hobby. When he got bored he would make a song and show it to his friends. They all thought he was talented and encouraged him to keep making music. So today Silent D is working on his first mixtape which he hopes to have done by late summer in '08.
