Samuel "CyCo" Suarez: Born & raised on the east coast; this Puerto Rican, by heritage, MC was listening to hip-hop from the moment he was brought home from the hospital...He was introduced to all kinds of music at an early age thanks to his father who would play music all day after a hard day's work, exposing CyCo to such artists as the Sugerhill Gang, Michael Jackson, Hector Lavoe, Fania All-Stars, Sonora Ponceña, Ice Cube, Dr. Dre and many more...
Later on in life; CyCo was introduced to the world of latin hip-hop, better known as "the Underground" in Puerto Rico, thanks to one of his cousins who gave him a K.P.P. & a Vico-C CD...Vico's lyrical "murals" of the Puerto Rican life sparked CyCo's interest in the genre which is now known as the club-friendly "reggaeton"...CyCo's next CD, "DJ Adam's Mad Jam", added more fuel to the fire which was already brewing inside his belly as soon as he heard the 1st track, by a then new artist that went by the name of Mexicano, "Se Testigo" (a lyrical account of a murderer who, enjoyingly, has to cover his tracks and kill the only eyewitness)...
Mexicano's raw, agressive and REAL tales on the albums "Entre el Bueno y el Malo"/"Between the Good and the Bad" & the bilingual "God's Assassins" inspired CyCo to "freestyle" everytime those albums were blasting in his headphones, which led CyCo to unknowingly spit in front of some of his crew, who were surprised with his control and ability to freestyle in both spanish, english and the twisted spanglish...
As he continued to develope his skills; the same people who introduced him to the street lifestyle, were the ones urging him to get his life together and take rapping more seriously...Upon this advice, he started carrying notebooks, CD's & his CD player everywhere he went and would put his lyrics down on paper, no matter what he was doing...Not too far into the making of CyCo the rapper, he lost one of his main supporters and best friends, lil CyCC, due to a gang shooting...And just a little over 4 years later, CyCo lost someone who was like an older brother/mentor to him, big CyCC (lil CyCC's older brother), the same guy who gave CyCo his name and motivated him to leave the street-life and turn to rapping instead, was stabbed in prison just 2 days after the death of his Grandmother...
About 3 years after making his first official appearance in the "underground" world; battling and winning tournaments on different websites, CyCo released his first mixtape, "Desde la Isla de la Muerte", which was a profitable succes. He has taken all the money he made from "Desde la Isla de la Muerte", and invested it into his first official project to be released independently on his label, Porto Roc Soljaz Entertainment. The album, titled "Omertà ", will be released sometime after the sequel to"Conexion Latina" and will not only show his lyrical growth and strength, but also display his versatility as a producer since he has single-handedly produced every single track on the album...He's coming more aggresive and more mature than before...This 21 years young rapper is ready to give Puerto Rico a voice in the hip-hop world once again...No more of that Daddy Yankee bullshit...He's here to demonstrate why they call P.R....the Island of Murder...
