About Me

REBEL DIAZ NEW MIXTAPE AVAILABLE ONLINE APRIL 9TH, 2008 @ WWW.REBELDIAZ.COM
1/3 of the group Rebel Diaz...... RodStarz is the future of Hip Hop. An MC that speaks the truth and challenges the system through his powerful bilingual lyrics. A Bboy raised in Chicago’s Golden Era, the era of bombed rooftops, the rebirth of breakdancing and boosted gear. He was born in Chertsey, England where his parents were living in exile after fleeing the CIA funded Pinochet dictatorship in their native Chile. He grew up on Chicago’s northside in Rogers Park influenced by his Chicago Champions and Norstarz family. That is where his name comes from, as they all were Starz that shined above the rest.RodStarz is a combination of the rage of the children of rebellion, the swagger from Chicago’s hip hop scene and the optimism of the youth for a better tomorrow. Anybody that knows him knows he’s all jokes and good times until he gets on stage. That’s when he goes to battle. Hip Hop is his weapon, his pistola and his tool of war. When not performing he is in the South Bronx organizing the community around police brutality, immigrant rights and gentrification issues with el Movimiento La Pena del Bronx. He currently resides in Hunts Point, New York.
