A.K.A. Murduh (The Heart of the Streets)I SEND MY DEEPEST LOVE AND PRAYERS TO THE BUTLER & FREEMAN FAMILIES AND CLOSE FRIENDS. TO ONE OF MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE ARTISTS FROM ONE OF MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE GROUPS; REST IN PEACE CHAD "PIMP C" BUTLER.
Influences: Range from UGK (R.I.P PIMP, HOLD YA HEAD BUN) & OutKast to EPMD & Mobb Deep. From KRS-One (BDP) to Scarface (Geto Boys), Busta Rhymes, 8Ball & MJG, Brotha Lynch Hung, MC Eiht, N.W.A., Death Row Records (B4 all tha bullshit), No Limit Records, GooDie MoB, Pastor Troy... the list would go on 4eva. Dr. Dre made me wanna produce @ 13, Tupac Shakur made me wanna pick up a pen.
I love every coast... Kool G. Rap, Talib Kweli and The Roots, Biggie Smalls, Big L, Nas & Jay... Twista (ladies always call me that), Common, Bone, EVERYONE IN THE LOU WHO OPENED DOORS & THOSE OF US CLIMBING THRU THE WINDOWS.
All the FOUNDING FATHERS of Hip Hop. J. Prince, Russell Simmons, Quincy Jones, Stevie Wonder, Rick James... every aspect of music altogether. From Pink Floyd to Earth, Wind & Fire, from Isley Broyhers to Audioslave. Music is in me. And u will neva know where I'm gonna take it.
Producers such as Dre, Timbaland, Havoc, DJ Premier, The Alchemist, Kanye, DJ Paul & Juicy J (Three 6), and the almighty KLC, who help signify BEATS BY THE POUND.
There's way too many to name so i'll just leave it @ this; THANK U GOD FOR THIS GIFT!! MUCH LOVE TO MY POPS, MY BIGGEST INFLUENCE, AND OUR LOCAL "JAMES CLEVELAND."
Sounds Like: An experience. Welcome to the AftuhLyfe. Y’all ain’t heard the half of what it is. One thing for certain, from the music to the lyrics, it comes from the depths of the soul. You WILL feel it. "The Beast has been unleashed & the Seventh Seal has been broken." -- T.R.U.E. "Fallen Soldier"
