Spadey (which is derived from The Ace of Spades) is a St. Louis native who honed his crafty delivery and metaphorical content by participating in every emcee battle he could. His metaphorical craftiness, along with his Mid-Western grammar earned his delivery the nickname Shotgun Tongue as he quickly puts together clever lines devouring anyone brave enough to indulge in competition. Spadey clearly explains the mission of the group with lines such as Were trying to distribute/something that will prevent you from getting addicted to the BS they trying to give you (Symphony 2005), Spadey who obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Speech Communication & Theatre from Tennessee State University, not only has the ability to captivate audiences with his lyrical ability, but through acting as well.
He like his group mates possesses a knack for providing content-based material that not only entertains, but educates. Spadey who is the son of a preacher, understands the need to address the various elements the people of the world must weather. These elements be it family and personal relationships, religion, or his desire for financial independence have reached the hearts of listeners for years allowing them to know him as a person and not merely as an artist. Understanding that role models are chosen and not made, Spadey feels the need to set an example for todays youth and reminds you of this whenever the opportunity presents itself. When coupled with Cool Mills energy and Acapellas tenacity, The C.A.$.I.N.O. effortlessly articulates the fact that there is more to life than material desires and financial success.
