In recent years it has become more and more apparent that there is a great divide in the music industry which separates those artists who will enjoy longevity in the business from those whose success will prove to be short lived. In today' s fast paced, instantly gratified, information super-highway driven world, hip-hop is no exception. As well as remarkably talented artist, you must be determined, dedicated, and infused with a sense of purpose and personal responsibility that stems from something more than just the need to get paid in order for you to attain that elusive level known as superstardom and stay on top. Shaun Johnson Aka Street, is one of those rare individuals who embody both the talent and the focus to reach the top of the pile and remain there indefinitely. His unwavering commitment to excellence stems not from a ..perfect.. upbringing, but from learning life's lessons the hard way and using that knowledge to make better decisions.
As a talented lyricist, producer, engineer, and "jack of all trades", Street was attracted to poetry at an early age which eventually lead him to become an MC. Everything he saw and experienced he wrote about. Born in the seaside town of Santa Maria, California he learned early that struggles are not exclusive to the inner city. At age 5 he relocated to Pennsylvania and bounced around from state to state from there. While it wasn' t his first choice.
Although Oil City, Pennsylvania isn' t the ideal place to start a music career, Street refused to let anything stop him from pursuing his dream. He released his music via the internet and via cd media and still spends countless hours promoting his material on websites such as the incredibly popular soundclick.com where he..s reached number one (out of 8,000) on their hip-hop charts, and averaging between 100 and 200 ..spins.. per day. His hard work and dedication are reflected in every aspect and he is known for giving the audience/fans one-hundred and ten percent of his energy.
Street has no intentions of slowing down either. He is humble and appreciative of all the support from everyone and everywhere, but he also recognizes that ultimately the success of his career depends on his own commitment to perseverance. The young veteran says ..In the past I've booked my own shows, designed my own artwork for my CD inlays, updated all my own websites, copyrighted my own material, produced my own beats, written my own biography, even sent submissions to record labels myself, and the list goes on... Street is the definition of a true new millennium hip-hop entrepreneur, a gifted poet turned MC and producer waiting patiently, but not idly, for his moment to shine. (Street Life Entertainment)
