Welcome to the Soundclick Training Ground.
Here I post my most experimental stuff for your feedback and listening pleasure. Tracks that come here I wouldn?t necessarily compile an album with but they usually make it to a show or some kind of exclusive release.

When dreams started to dictate that I develop my craft from page to stage around 2002, I started flipping through the back of my high school rhyme books. Pursuing a professional recording career meant a need for more studio experience which led me to many different people and studios; Hence a variety of sounds.

I think that my different cultural influences are a strong selling point. While for a long time I have leaned predominantly on my western influences, experimenting with different styles, vocal arrangements and qualities of my voice have cultivated my sound to be more distinctive.

Featured here on the training ground is mix tape 1 ?Ready or not?. Visit the member profile for the photo albums, radio station and more?
Why this name?
It was chosen for me yo...since my first year of high school I was like this tall and peeps used to say I moved like Shaquille O?Neil on the court. The name shaq kinda stuck through school till everyone grew past me and started calling me baby shaq. It was to the point where some didn?t even know my right name and I went through many, incorporating them in my raps but most wouldn?t call me anything else. I shortened it to just The MC but it?s really Mr. Baby S.H.A.Q. The MC Jamaica?s best kept secret AKA the Phatcat and a couple others I won?t share
Do you play live?
yeah!...ill flow with a beatbox or a desk top beat but ive done a couple shows with a live band which to me really brings the music to life. ive hit a couple intimate spots in kingston but my favourite place to get warm is at JamaicaVibes
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
grand discovery! so now the world is not really flat its actually round... that will have people scrambling around for a while. The pool and its ideas were getting stagnant anyway. so we still have musicians and they still have their support, that wont change, but the people in between em are gonna make a mess for a while still thinking we can fall off the edge.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
i guess the question is could a major label share the vision and put something on paper that would be right for me and my team ... lets see, till then im on the grizind
Anything else...?
