Groups like KISS, and Queen influenced his music taste, then he was in to Rock N Roll.In the late 70's HIP-HOP was born, and so was T.N.T. Soon he started a Rap group with his brother and cousin after relocating to Daytona Beach, FL becoming known as one of the founders on the local HIP-HOP scene. He then ventured off on his own, becoming one of the most feared MC's on the mic. Disappointed by so many hopeless promises, T.N.T. took some time off to learn more about the business aspect of the industry.After his learning the business aspect of the industry, and raising 5 children, he discovered and regained his passion for HIP-HOP, a passion that just wouldn't die.
