..He was in Junior High (8th grade to be exact), when the music bug hit him. It was the "Reasonable Doubt" CD by JayZ and that did it. He had messed around with music a little bit before .... but after hearing Jay Z, the fire and inspiration of a rapper arose in him and life as he knew it would never be the same again. Meet Allei Fatz. A name with a play on the term Alley Cat, this moniker suits him well. He came up with it in high school while trying out some names. Friends liked it, so it just stuck with him. Allei has a sweet face, sharp eyes, large frame, and a mean swagger.Born and raised in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, Allei loved music. He recalls sitting around with his friends in elementary school joking around freestyling. Once he hit middle school there was always a cipher going on. People would crowd around to listen and cheer but at that time Allei was shy. He was always tempted to jump in to show that he had skills also but never did. Even though Allei would never freestyle for his peers he would always write material. Eventually he started letting close friends read his rhymes and they loved them. That gave him confidence but not enough to rap in front of large crowds.In 2001, Allei Fatz hooked up with local inspiring artists Exclusive and Tek. Together they formed E.T.A and put together a four song demo. The group made copies and passed out around town and also in Raleigh, NC and Greenville, NC. The group started to get a buzz around their town. The people who heard it loved it. Nothing major ever came of it so the group split ways a few months later. They still remain great friends and hang out with one another from time to time. Allei Fatz knew he had the skills on pen and pad and also in the studio but one thing bothered him...he never performed for a crowd. In 2006, Allei became frustrated living in Rocky Mount. There wasn't much to do there but get in trouble. March of 2006, he decided to start a new journey in his life and relocated to San Antonio, TX.Upon moving to San Antonio, he jumped right into things, collaborating with locals such as White Mike, Gutta Man Boss, John Poppa, Mark Twang, Mainstream, Virgo In Flight Ent.. He then was approached by others out of state like Lady J (PA.), OSC aka Overseas Ent. (Washington), and Tekkeon (N.C.). Allie Fatz and White Mike formed Southern Made Entertainment which had became a favorite of San Antonio local Hip Hop heads. It wasn't until moving to San Antonio that Allei performed for a crowd the first time in his career. He recalls his very first show as being a very unique experience. He was very nervous that whole night. Finally when called to the stage it was time to see what he had. The first song Allei nailed it. He drew the crowd in and started feeling himself a little bit. The second song he forgot some of his lyrics but he found his spot and finished it. He was very upset and embarrased but his friends were to encourage and continually told him not to let it bother him. He started to feel a little better considering he had just wrote the song the day before. Since then Allei has performed at different bars and clubs in San Antonio, TX. Some of those venues are Reptiles Sports Bar, The Underground, Papa Rays, The Limelight, Club Onyx, The Boss Bar, The Venue, and Club Sneakers. He has also performed in Austin, TX and Houston, TX.Allei sees himself as a down South rapper with an East coast flow. He is versatile, can be very conscience and can grab an audiences attention with his writing. Having a lot of family in New York has lent to his sometimes heavy handed style, but his musical influences include Rakim, Slick Rick, Kool G Rap, Big Daddy Kane, NAS, Jay Z, AZ, and Mob Deep. The biggest influence is Jay Z though, Allei says it's due to his laid back style and lyrical content. Allei is Big on lyrical content and his music truly reflects it. Allei has currently dropped two mixtapes and is still working on new material. He has recently moved back to North Carolina and is very pleased to see a lot of local artist doing their thing and representing the city well. After about two weeks of moving back to NC Allei hooked up with C-Dub and recorded "Rockin wit Fatz" produced by C-Dub. The track is a banger and you can check it out on his myspace page.You can check out Allie Fatz on these music pages:
