About Me

Born on the island of ARUBA, Mista moved to the the states as a young teen touchin down in the Midwest of Dayton,OHIO. This is where he found his inspiration to get involved in HipHop. He later moved to Holland where he hooked up with Mighty B to form the hiphop group Mellow Emcee’s. Deejay SPEEDY J joined the group later before breaking through with his HIT " PULL OVER". They did alot of Undergound shows and opened up for British ragga Star "Daddy Freddy" on his dutch tour. They released an Ep "Working Undercover" and appeared on the Royal Jelly hit album from KING BEE. He was signed to Holland’s first HipHop label DJAX in 1992 and worked on the album from the group 24K "Words Yet Unspoken", which at the time was the biggest HipHop act in Holland with the Underground Hit "We Have No Enemies". This period was where layed his foundation in Dutch HipHop or as some might say "Underground". After doing hiphop for a long time he decided to do something else that would help him pay his bills, he joined the dance act "Two Brothers On The 4th Floor". They scored TEN Top10 Hits in Holland and had a NUMBER ONE HIT with Dreams in 1994. They toured the world to exotic places like Brazil, Mexico, South Africa, Sweden, Venezuela, Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, Canada, France and the rest of europe becoming pioneers in what was known as EuroDance. They recieved gold records for sales of singles and released two albums, and stil perform once in a while nationaly and abroad . He decided to GIVE something back to DUTCH HIPHOP so he started a label CMC/Soulrelation with good friend BRIAN BUSBY in 1995 til 2000. They released original music from E-life ,who scored the labels first HIT with "More Days to Come" charting at NUMBER 5 in the Dutch National Charts, and were very instrumental in JIVE MUSIC releasing E-life’s debut album "Eleven", becoming Hollands first HipHop artist and label to sign to JIVE MUSIC. The Double Dutch 12inch series Ft Empress, Alee ,The Proov , and Lee the natural Ft Shy ROCK. Postmen’s first release "Docks Document" proving they had a ear for good music!. The Proov’s Ep and full album" Traditions"..They rewrote HISTORY again with The Proov by shooting the most expensive video ever shot in Holland’s music history for the track "Feel The Heat" Ft Colombo. The song was also used to promote the EURO CUP SOCCER held in Amsterdam in 2000.

The show also gave National Mc’s a spot on tv for promotion and a moment to show skils.
