The Neighborhood Fat Boy....Comin' Summer 2007

About Me

White collars know that you can find the coldest hustler’s in the cities on the hottest blocks in the projects. It’s no secret that these streets breed gangsters, but no one wants to admit these streets birth Made Men. Calibers of men that know how to get the bread and butter all in one slang. Nah…we not talking drugs; Smitty made a promise to his Mother that omitted that from ever being one of his hustles. So he took a deep breath, and an even deeper thought and it didn’t take long for him to realize what the next most addictive substance was…MUSIC!!!Smitty Jankins A.KA. The Neighborhood Fat Boy was raised by hard working parents, but still was a fiend to Scarface, 8Ball & MJG, UGK, & Outkast since the age of 11 when he began penning raps. As his passion for music continued to grow his fire for a bonafied hustle did as well. So he placed the two together and after high school got a gig at a local record store to study the retail side of the music business. It was then he would make his mark on the music scene in his hometown of Augusta, GA. releasing several albums under a duo called the Dynasty. After a few years of slow progress in the group, they collectively decided for Smitty to embark on a solo career.Currently preparing to release his official debut album "The Neighborhood Fat Boy", Smitty plans are to feed the streets a balanced serving of good music, with collaborations on the production with hometown favorites such as Buck Teet & Bizzo, as well as Atlanta heatmaker Soleternity. Smitty Jankins plans to bring the real side of the hood to the masses. Stay Tuned..... (Written by Hollywood Redd) PUT YOUR BIO SECTION HERE! Changes may take up to 2 mins to show on your profile
