RICH Tycoon of BLACK BIZNESS

Two days after his 21st birthday Filthy RICH's life changed forever. While involved in a physical altercation at a convenience store in Tacoma, Washington he was shot. It would be several years before Filthy RICH would reemerge on the music scene as RICH Tycoon . In the meantime, he would experience what he now refers to as "Real Life". Since being shot and sentenced to state prison in 1993 Filthy RICH has seen more than his share of street life and the struggle. He's struggled with himself, the world, and within his own family unit. These "Real Life" issues coupled with a traumatic childhood would become the basis for RICH Tycoon's music.
Around 2003 Filthy RICH started showing signs of a comeback. He teamed up with one of his rap associates P.O. Tha Profit to form the rap group Black Bizness. Black Bizness released their first album Shop Open in 2005 off the group's independent record label Street Wire Muzik. Although the album did OK in the sales department it provided much needed exposure for all artists involved in the project and initiated talks between Bay Area rap legend San Quinn and Black Bizness.
Never one to submit to the characterization of Gangster Rapper, RICH Tycoon claims to be a Street Rapper…not as in one who raps on the streets, but one who raps about the streets as a whole. His knowledge and understanding of the street culture is what sets him apart and entices even the most street savvy consumer to tune in for a lesson.
Each song is a testament. Some of RICH Tycoon's songs make you want to laugh and others make you want to cry, but amazingly they are all filled with truth. Some are even filled with some of life's answers. Tycoon's approach varies depending on the tune, but the message remains consistent.
"Life is real, and we're living it right now!"
