Russ Swain a.k.a "da professa" or "Sweez" was born the fourth child of ten in Ft. Lauderdale, Fl. Raised in Pompano Beach by a single mother the Florida native learned early that nothing came easy and the world wasn't as beautiful as other folk made it seem. Mostly known for his basketball playing days as a youngster and through his teen years by day there was another side few knew about at night. Running the streets in Pompano it's easy to be caught up in the fast lane and certainly it was one to many run-ins with the law that ultimately change the life of young Russell. Looking at the possibility of prison time Russ needed an out and found music. A late bloomer Russ Swain first was heard on a mixtape back in 1998 with the hood classic "fuck dem hoes" at a time when there virtually was no underground circuit in Broward county, as the tape circulated people were taking notice but it would be three years before people would hear him again only this time he would hit paydirt with the album "Criminals" which sold over 40,000 copies between Pompano beach & Daytona, thus his legend began and continues to grow as one of Florida's hottest producers. He has put out 2 solo albums, produced 4 more albums, and has three more coming plus a solo, and thats just the last 2 and half years so he is certainly on his grind. I can tell you now that I couldn't fathom this young man not being at the next level.I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!
