Dubb Sicks is the type of hungary, talented, insane asshole that would tape his demo to a brick and throw it through your window just to be heard in the right context. It's this in-your-face grimey attitude that pushes him to succeed at both hip-hop and life. Growing up in Odessa Texas, Sicks learned such life lessons as "bloody knuckle" hard work and vulgar, passionate verbal skills from his surroundings and influences including his father James, a rock drummer on late nights and a blue collar hard worker the next morning. Sicks began recording at home in 1999 and released a handful of raw material including "Screw You", a mixtape style CD that jump started the buzz around his name in Odessa. At the age of 19 Dubb moved to Fayetteville, NC to live in a house that included two other rappers and a producer (S. Killz). During this time he cut his teeth in the hip-hop world entering battles, doing open mics, and in live jam sessions with some of the talented musicians in the area. After some live performances with various styles of bands and a brush with the law over that year, Sicks found himself thrust back into the dog-eat-dog culture of Odessa, Texas once again. While there Sicks hooked up with DJ R1, the elite DJ and producer in the area and began work on his first real project "Sunrise Alcoholic". With production handled by his former roomate, S. Killz and his new DJ, the album headed in a direction that no one in the West Texas desert had ever gone before. Within the year Sicks and R1 cultivated and bread a hip-hop scene in West Texas all while creating a brain-numbing, complete album with songs ranging from a story about a trip to Mexico where Sicks meets a woman who steals his heart and his wallet, to the title track and underground drinking anthem "Sunrise Alcoholic". Going from introspective thinking tracks to a storytelling saga detailing the life of a crooked cop, this record takes the listener on a head-first dive into Dubb Sicks' political, spiritual, emotional, and recreational views and beliefs mixed with chest pounding beats to match the thought provoking lyrics. With influences ranging from Rage Against the Machine, to OutKast and Bob Dylan, Sicks' eclectic taste is poured into every song. The future is always unceartain, but one thing is for sure; in 2006 Dubb Sicks will be a force in hip-hop throughout Texas, and if the dice roll right...he'll be banging woofers and shitting on microphones nationwide.
