Ben Hendricks, aka " Slimm Diesel" Is a native of Washington DC, born on the 25th of July 1976. As a young child he was influenced by his mother's love for music, to include some of hip hop's early greats such as "Kurtis Blow" and " The Sugarhill Gang". During these early stages of hip hop Slimm became inspired by the likes of Big Daddy Kane , Biz Markie , LL Cool J, and films such as Wildstyle and Beat Street to name a few. So there's no surprise as to how he started penning rhymes at the early age of 10.Throughout the years, Slimm was involved in many Hip Hop groups, and Go- Go bands fine tuning his art of MC' ing and overall stage presence and performance. With his last band " SYMPLICITY" gaining much popularity and radio airplay, Slimm established himself as one the Uptowns finest on the mic.In the year of 1997 while living in Las Vegas Nevada, he hooked up with fellow MC " Frankie Hustle" where the two established a good working relationship and recorded a full length album never to be realesed. Shortly thereafter the duo moved to The Netherlands and were invited in by Money Makers bv., as a featured artist to record with The VIP ALLSTARS "MAMACITA" Triple D remix, which was later pressed up and released on Jive records.With a undying love for his music and hip hop, Slimm continued to travel back and forth between the U.S. and Holland jumping on any and every opportunity that knocked. This would eventually lead to him finding Producer Oh Jay from Uden Netherlands, thus forming the group "Rap Classical". With numerous tracks recorded and an unbelievable hunger to expose his lyrical arsenal to the rap game, Slimm looks to become a force to be reckoned with!!On The Grind Since Day One!
