About Me
A mainstream reliance upon cotton candy lyricism and immature dance steps has left much of hip-hop resembling a mish-mash of finger snaps, two steps, and “supermenâ€, yet connoisseurs of this culture realize that while real hip-hop is still alive, it needs someone to breathe new life into the microphone. Music needs a savior. While legendary wordsmiths such as Jay-Z, Common, the Game, Pharrell and Kanye West are doing their part to provide hip-hop with a steady life force, the mainstream listeners need something to hold on to, and Orange County’s Thrasher, is the perfect emcee for this daunting task.
A unique individual in a genre in desperate need of something out of the ordinary, Thrasher, has the blessing of some of the game’s greats. A 21-year-old prodigy out of Orange County, California, he brings a unique sound to an underrepresented market. Despite being raised in the epitome of suburban life Thrasher has had a less than suburban upbringing. Coming from a broken home Thrasher established himself as an up-and-coming artist by drawing on the various influences that life in Orange County provided him, whether it be an early affixation with Sublime and skateboarding or thriving in Los Angeles with childhood friend Addison Doby. Thrasher’s extremely eclectic upbringing has provided him with ample skills to engineer a sound unlike any other in music today. Thrasher has embarked on his own path creating a sound that fuses Alternative Rock, Hip Hop, and Pop, and bringing individuality and flare to a genre of music that severely depends on it.
While Thrasher’s hits, the summer time feel good track to bring back memories when times were like none other “Good Ol' Days†and “Fly Kicksâ€, a West-Coast ode to footwear, gain regional attention and airplay from Los Angeles’ own Power 106, its apparent that he is starting to solidify his place in the music industry. Yet, it is his dedication to the game, and refreshing attitude that will propel him from a regional rapper to a national treasure. After garnering praise from both the Jordan brand and Black Wall Street CEO, the Game it is apparent that he is due for big things, and after hearing his “Ray Banz†single, I can assure you that 2009 will be a groundbreaking year and the world will be introduced to Thrasher, "The Artist" and "The Role Model."
