I'M IN DA "FASTLANE" TRY TO CATCH ME

About Me

BORN DECEMBER 25TH, 1987 IN BROOKLYN, NEW YORK, WHO WOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT JOSEPH STEVENS, ALSO KNOWN TO THE WORLD AS SKOLLA WOULD MAKE SUCH A HUGE IMPACT ON THE RAP GAME! WHEN I THINK OF SKOLLA THE FIRST WORD THAT COMES TO MY MIND IS “PERSEVERANCE”. I SAY THAT BECAUSE HE IS INFACT A TRUE “GO-GETTA”. SKOLLA REALIZED HE WANTED TO BE IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY AS A CHILD WHEN HE USED TO HANG OUT WITH THE ARTISTS HIS BROTHER’S BOSS AND LUCKY USED TO WORK WITH. AS HE SAID “I USED TO SPIT LITTLE KIDDIE RAPS”. AT THE AGE OF 15 SKOLLA DROPPED HIS FIRST MIXTAPE ENTITLED “STREET HOP”, WHICH LET EVERYONE KNOW HE WASN’T PLAYING GAMES WHEN IT CAME TO BEING AN M.C. AT THE AGE OF 17 HE RELEASED ANOTHER MIXTAPE HOSTED BY SOUTH CAROLINA’S OWN D.J. PRINCE ICE ENTITLED “ON A BLOCK NEAR YOU”. A YEAR LATER HE DROPPED YET ANOTHER MIXTAPE ENTITLED “WELCOME TO SUMTER CITY”, THIS TIME HOSTED BY DJ CLEVE OF SO SO DEF ENTERTAINMENT. AT THE AGE OF 19 SKOLLA WORKED WITH THE INFAMOUSE DJ SPEEDRACER ON MY PERSONAL FAVORITE MIXTAPE ENTITLED “CALL ME KING”. SKOLLA HAS WORKED WITH MANY ARTISTS INCLUDING PAUL CAIN (FABOLOUS’ BROTHER), MATCHSTIK (AN UPCOMING ARTIST FROM L.A.), AND CA$INO WHO IS ALSO AN ARTISTS ON A’GAME ENTERTAINMENT. SKOLLA HAS TRAVELED MANY PLACES IN ORDER TO FURTHER HIS CAREER INCLUDING FLORIDA, GEORGIA, CHICAGO, WISCONSIN, LAS VEGAS, NORTH DAKOTA, NEW JERSEY, NEW YORK, MINNESOTTA AND CANADA. CANADA WAS A MAJOR MOVE, DON’T YOU AGREE? HE HAS DONE SHOWS WITH JOE BUDDENS AND SEAN PAUL THERE. I ONLY SEE GREATER THINGS FOR SKOLLA IN THE FUTURE. HARD WORK DOES IN FACT PAY OFF.“AT THE END OF THE DAY, REAL RECOGNIZES REAL, THAT’S WHY HALF OF THESE DUDE’S CAN’T EVEN SEE ME WITH THEIR EYES OPEN” ~SKOLLA Layout Provided By FreeCodeSource.com - Myspace Layouts Layout Provided By FreeCodeSource.com - Myspace Layouts
