PURP REYNOLDS

'PURP REYNOLDS' BORN DEON WATKINS IN FRENCH CAMP, CALIFORNIA. IS A RAPPER WITH A FLOW LIKE NON-OTHER IN THE INDUSTRY TODAY. WHILE MOST RAPPERS TRY AND SPIT THE HOTTEST 16 BARS,OR EVEN BE THE BEST, HE'D RATHER TALK ABOUT THE WORLD AROUND HIM. THAT'S RIGHT, THIS ARTIST SAYS WHAT COMES TO MIND AT THE TIME AS HE WOULD PUT IT. PURP REYNOLDS ALSO GOES BY THE NAME OF D-BABY, A PRODUCT OF VALVERDE PARK ON THE NORTHSIDE OF STOCKTON,CA. REYNOLDS GREW UP ON THE SOUTHSIDE OF TOWN IN HIS BIG MAMAS HOUSE! DURING HIS HIGH SCHOOL YEARS REYNOLDS WAS A BASKETBALL STAR. INFATUATED WITH FAST MONEY AND ATTENTION, PURP PUT THE BASKETBALL DOWN AND STARTED HUSTLIN IN THE STREETS. HE SOON FOUND THAT TO BE A DEAD END ROAD, AS THE ONLY THING HE EVER REALLY GOT OUT OF THAT WAS TIME.SOON AFTER HE WOULD MEET UP WITH LONG TIME FRIENDS & PRODUCERS, "MIKE DEE" & "ATTITUDE" OF THE LEGENDARY C.O.P.S. AND START RECORDING SONGS. AFTER RECORDING A DEMO THAT MADE INTERSCOPE RECORDS SEEK HIM OUT FOR A SIT DOWN, AND POSSIBLE RECORD DEAL. UNFORTUNATELY AROUND THE SAME TIME PURP REYNOLDS WOULD BE LOCKED UP IN THE SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY JAIL FOR POSSESSION FOR SALES & MONEY LAUNDERING. REYNOLDS SAYS THE POLICE TRY AND FRAME HIM ANYTIME THEY CAN BECAUSE OF HIS FAMILY HISTORY OF THUGGIN. BUT MUSIK WAS HIS PASSION AND WITH THAT WINDOW OF OPPURTUNITY CLOSED, REYNOLDS DID NOT LET THAT SLOW HIM DOWN.
