D-Black always found himself being "the new kid" either in school or in
the neighborhood. He was born in the Polo Ground Houses in Harlem, NY
during the mid 80's. It was a time where violence, drug abuse & poverty
were at its highest. By age 6, he had already witnessed two murders up
close. To find solace for his family, his father would move them around
four times throughout the greater Harlem region before being evicted.
This would cause the family to be forced into the Family Homeless
Shelter System. While in the system, they would be moved around an
additional three times throughout the Bronx. Since D-Black was always
"the new kid" it made proving himself unavoidable. He would engage in
foul play and wrong doings not for fun but because of necessity to
provide for himself when in a bad situation. After word got to his
father that his son was involved in criminal activity, he would teach
Black to write down his frustrations and other feelings he had bottled
up. This was a method his father had learned in prison during his 4
year stint in the 70's. One day Black heard his older cousin D-Dave
spit and he decided to follow suit. In high school, he was often found
in ciphers making the crowd go crazy with his punch lines and lyrical
versatility. Getting tired of looking for good beats to rap on, he
decided to start producing beats himself. Currently enrolled in college
taking music management courses and co-hosting a radio show (Vroom
Vroom Variety Hour), he is preparing to become more than a triple
threat in the industry. With his introductory single “I Know You Wannaâ€
picking up buzz and his album tentatively titled “A Bronx Tale†in the
works, 2007 looks like history in the making for D-Black. As he always
says, “You Can Have Now, I'm The Future Of The Game".
