Ya boy Bruno with my first album titled"The Sum Of All Fears". Bruno has had the number one single in Dallas, TX; Oklahoma City, OK; Wichita, Falls TX; Vernon TX and coming soon Columbus OH. I Have opened up for Boyz In The Hood, TI, Billy Cook & Kano, Trey and many more in the Oklahoma and Texas areas.
Why this name?
My nickname used to be Cream238 and my late father's nickname was Bruno. When he passed, I got his name tattooed on my arm and everyone started to call me by that name. I have chosen to use the name "Bruno" in tribute to my father.
Do you play live?
Yes I have done between 150 to 250 shows in 2005 alone. I have done over 500 shows in my rap career. I make it look easy.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
These modalities really have given me the chance to reach people outside of the immediate area in which I reside. Who would think that a guy from Kansas could do this thing? Map wise you would never think that there would be any great talent coming from out of "nowhere". If you look at the midwest as a whole, I feel like we lack props(recognition from the industry) who currently only looks to find artists from St.Louis and Chicago, Detroit. I'm not knocking St.Louis or any other place, because I'm from East St. Louis originally, but there are other places that make good music and I think Kansas needs a chance to showcase its talent.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I would sign a record contract if one with mutually favorable provisions could be negoitated. With what I know now, my preference would be to sign a label deal.
Your influences?
My music influences are people like LL cool J for his abiliy to change and remain an imapact player in the industry for more than twenty(20) years(longevity). 2pac for saying how he feels and holding no punches. Rass Kass and Canibus for being gifted as artists and not using gimmicks.
Favorite spot?
St. Thomas (US Virgin Islands, Nassau Bahamas, Labadee Haiti, San Juan Puerto Rico
Equipment used:
fruity loops, vegas 4.0, n-track studio, pcdj, acid 4.0, tracktor dj, triton
