About Me

[
View my page on The Twin Cities Online Network
N.I.G grew up in South and North Minneapolis where at the age of 9 started performing at talent shows with dreams of being signed. With ups and downs that most do not see in their lifetime and watching his close friends get caught up and end up doing life. N.I.G decided to refocus on his music career to allow others to see things through his eyes. In hopes that they will live life with their future mind. N.I.G has performed at numerous venues such as Escape Ultra Lounge, 1st Avenue, Spirell Bar,dukes night club, Fine Line music cafe, O'Gara's, the Quest, sabas, gastofs, bar fly, Euphoria, Daddy Rocks, trocaderos ,club seven, Leaning Tower, Dinkytowner, Tabu, The Rock, Annex, South Beach, Red Sea and The Terminal. With a wide range of influences on his music, his passion is Hip-Hop. Currently touring in the local Minnesota area with his recent release of his album "Show and Prove"( IN STORES NOW!!! and his upcoming album "THE RENAISSANCE MAN" The album entitled (SHOW & PROVE ) is a true story of my life so far. Im also working on a jakin 4 beats album taking hit songs and remaking them to fit my hood criteria, Yall will see!!! The Twin Cities is a melting pot, people from every hood on the map. I was raised in SOUTH & NORTH MINNEAPOLIS with ties from chicago to las vegas. I've been rappin for 18 years, I started rappin in the 4th grade with my boy Kendelle, we would do little talent show's in the hood and had dreams of gettin signed. While taking a trip to Chicago Kendelle caught a murder charge and ended up in Stateville for life. The 2 man crew we had built was gone. After that it was my mission to make it rappin. In high school I met up with a cat named 2 feet a.k.a PONTIAC we had good chemistry, we had a good back and forth flow. We have been rapping with each other since then, thats one of my aces we been through a lot together thats the other half of N.I.G & P PRODUCTIONS. My other secret weapon is my brother RUSHA he got a flow that will kill even the rawest mc he has been locked up most of his life so he never had a chance to really get on any tracks till now so its a YOU HEAR IT 1ST type of thing, but when I give him to the streets its gone be ravishing a lot of these cats out here. Another cat that I got up with in back in "01" was my guy TRAMA we do a lot of shows with each other and he put me up on a lot of shit , we are recording the TRAMA UNIT album now so be on the look out.also make sure you hit my myspace ( www.myspace.com/husslemuzac and see the new music video from the whole trama0unit called "THE SUPER-DELEGATES". But now I've put my life on a CD, through all the bullshit, THE BLOCK , THE CLUB , THE JAIL , now it's here the album, after all these years not even having a studio to record, finally I have the power to give ya'll the gift, SHOW&PROVE!!!!!!!!!! IN STORES NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!and now!!!! coming soon!!!! THE RENAISSANCE MAN!!!!!the follow up album to SHOW&PROVE is THE RENAISSANCE MAN!! the reason I named the album THE RENAISSANCE MAN is that since I started recording tracks and trying to get a name known in the twin cities rap game i could never get love on getting the ball rolling. every one i talked to about beats wanted outragous amounts of money and rules about they beats ,I couldent get no studio time and no help with the graphics,with promotions no help with my album cover. so i said its cool, ill do it myself!! so i did, made all the beats for my album, did all my own promo, did my album cover, and put my feet to the street!! ant no one gonna do it if u cant do it yourself. so thats why im THE RENAISSANCE MAN!!!and even tho i can do it myself , the team is strong and we aid eachother ,so we all RENAISSANCE MEN!! that makes us the SUPER-DELEGATES!! THE TRAM-UNIT we all our own artists that can form to become one!!THE UNIT.... "TRAMA , IKE TREEZ , KATANA , AND YA MAN N.I.G"
