''The Lyricist Of Da South'' aka "Cocky Balboa"

About Me

Diction "The Lyricist of The South"
Brief Biography

Diction was raised in Houston Texas, and he has been musically inclined since his childhood.His mother knew he a different breed,so she decided to give birth to him in the comfort of thier home, with the supervision of a midwife(doctor).God told her he was chosen to be a "prophet"..a leader of men and to watch his friend's, and his education. His spiritual backround came from the strength and power of his father's ministry."Apostle Marvin T. Boyd Sr." a prophetic man of wisdom, who was traveling all over the world for over 30 years ministering the gospel to people changing thier lives forever.Diction also came from a educational background,both of his grandparents were school teachers.He also has deap musical roots that run in his family,from singers and songwriters, to producers and engineers."I got cousins that work with grammy winning r&b artists such as Goerge Benson,Brian Mcknight,and Prince.One of my older cousins also have won a grammy for a Brian McKnight album in 2007.So music definatly runs in my blood."say Diction.Diction grew up to be a very profound athelete..in both Basketball(point guard) and football(quarterback),both positions of leadership.He was awarded "MVP" trophy for basketball his senior year in high school,for his leadership and outstanding talent on the court."Basketball is my first love"says diction. He graduated from Robert E. Lee High School, then went on to the University of Houston where he studied to gain his Associates Degree. Diction travelled to many places, and has learned alot from witnessing life in different parts of the world.Instead of waiting for a handout,he has been grinding fearlessly, breaking his music in the U.S.A.,Canada,and Australia.Diction is far more than just a rapper from Texas...He is a independent, international, up and rising "Star".Being a globetrotter helped Diction gain sence of humility which would become evident once you spoke to him. A very humble,down to earth individual,with "11"years of music grind under his belt....Diction feels that his presence in the music industry is essential."11 years wow,It has been a long hard fight ,but I was taught to never give up on your dreams...and I will not..I was born for this....its my calling" says Diction. Diction has cultivated his artistry into his own style of music which is different than some other artists in his region of Texas... he calls it "Southpaw Claw"."COCKY BALBOA"is one of his alias names.His style is tricky like a boxer or martial artist who fights straight and southpaw,a deadly weapon!"Bruce Leeroy"is his other chosen alias.. the strength,heart and soul of a black man mixed with the wisdom,honor and disipline of chinese man,that is "Diction"."I want to be that artist that makes music from his soul that is entertaining,educating,and challenges people to listen and pay attention to detail(LYRICS)."More than anything I want to be respected on many different levels :my music ,my business,and as one of the most rare breeds of people ...a "Successful Black Man"."Never forget where you come from...be happy with who you are"."One of the biggest things I stand for is educating myself and others"."All my life I had people tried to control me and it became worse as I built my music career"."So I guess the first of many jewels I will drop is :1)control your own vision,dont let them steal that from you...they didnt make that, so they cant take that!"Second, is get your own business and work as hard as you can for yourself.It may sound selfish but its not... they just want you to think it is"."Third, take care of your people,your family first...(dont you forget about lil ray ray and nem)."Last, but not least love God fear none.Anyone can make it never give up!In the mid 90's my business partners and I joined forces and cutivated the powerhouse based in Houston,Tx called "STAYZ-ON ENTERTAINMENT"which is the home of our click "THE CODEFENDANTS"(a multidiverse group of artists,producers and songwriters all from different parts of the U.S.A. (WE THE HOTTEST CLICK IN THE GAME)with the production genius of artist ,songwriter "Seandoe"of (Seandoe Productions),the CO-D's have been making hits since the mid 90's.This powerfull squad consist of five all-star players..."DICTION" from "Houston,Texas"(the southern/westcoast lyricist)J-SHELL out of "Detriot,Michigan"(the midwest/eastcoast, streetcredible lyrical assasin)"SEANDOE"from Gary,Indiana(the clicks jack of all trades..producer/songwriter and rapper,musical genius.Last but not least the Houston hardhittas ''LOW DEZZY''the H-town sniper and "ALLEY-KAT" the hood spokesman ...both houston mc's that spit flames.The Co-D's are the future of hiphop,and are definatly a movement of hungry,talented,very marketable mc's who should not be taken lightly....trust me!!So look out for the album which will be a definate classic...CO-D's load up!!!!!I also have other affilliates who take part in this movement such as..... Blak Current Ent.,Mo Bucks Ent.(ATBM) and Black Currency Managment.I am the President & Chief Executive Officer(ceo)of my company known as "BLACK CURRENCY INC"...

As owners of of this great business movement we will push the limits of hiphop,challenge others to learn as we did to change the game,and help as many people as we can to be successful:for we believe it is better to give than recieve.So all you snakes ,sharks ,hyenas and any other species we se yall hatin,but I hope yall see us comin,the "lions" are here and we hungry!!!We got N.America covered so its going to be a beautiful year..just watch!and if its not to much to ask please support and we will do the same
