The soldiers of DRBR have been making down and dirty tracks since the late 1990's. Through a mutual family friend, the founding members of the group were introduced in the city of Houston, TX. Who knew that that meeting would lay the foundation for the musical powerhouse, Dirty Rocks Burn Rich. The 'Dirty Rocks', named so for the dirty rocks that founder and CEO, 13, hauled daily, was born and the doors to the studio/record store opened in 2001. The Dirty Rocks studio became a centerpiece of the East Texas sound and between 2001 and 2003 several artist came through the doors, and thousands of songs (literally) were recorded. With the addition of Pee-Tee, Brixx Challione and Big Ed the Dirty Rocks '9-Oh-Derty-Third' sound was born. Tragically, in the summer of 2003, the Dirty Rocks studio in Marshall, TX was burned to the ground in a suspicious and unsolved fire. All equipment and recordings were lost. Dirty Rocks remained closed for 18 months before reopening, bigger and better, in late 2006. The clique was even more determined than ever to spread the '9-Oh-Derty-Third' sound and, in their resilience, they decided if they were going to burn - they would BURN RICH. The DIAMOND was chosen as a symbol of strength, wealth and for the fact that diamonds also begin their lives as dirty rocks before they are cleaned and cut to show their true value.
