RADIO / CLUB HEAVY HIP HOP
Every millennium a child is born that can perform at a level beyond the expected norm of
a four minute thirty second song. Now amidst all of the drama and over commercialism
in hip-hop, comes a rapper whose wit and insight is unmatched. Growing up in the
violent and drug infested millbrook projects of the South Bronx, Knowledge is no
stranger to the pitfalls that claim lives everyday in the ghetto. Though most young men
living under these same circumstances would have fallen into a life of crime, Knowledge
decided to make sure he would use his experiences to achieve greatness. Once a good
baseball player, Knowledge envisioned himself playing professionally until his passion
for the sport came to an end. Around this same time is when a love for hip-hop was
beginning to take over his life. He wrote his first song at age 12, and from then on there
was no turning back for the young MC. “ I remember I used to write all day, In class at
school, at home, at night, just about anytime I had an idea.” “It was like I was obsessed,
and still to this day if I get an idea I gotta write it down.” “ I used to work in a warehouse
where there was no paper to write, so I used napkins from the bathroom to pen my
rhymes, and in a matter of months I literally had about 500 verses all on napkins sitting in
a garbage bag in my room.” Throughout his demo, there is a mixture of heavy club bangin'
tracks, along with personal and gritty songs which reflect some of his past and personal
experiences. Although, always one
for the usual “street track” and reflective songs, he has not forgotten about the club goers
with such tracks as “Watchu gon do,” and “Esa loca.” “I just like to mix it up, you
know.” “ Some days I wake up and I’m in a bad mood, some days I’m feeling righteous
about things, and sometimes I just wanna chill and party.” “ I don’t like to consider
myself one dimensional, I just wanna make good, quality music that everyone can relate
to.” With a great assortment of ideas, know how, and razor sharp lyrics to boot,
Knowledge is poised and ready to make an immediate impact in hip-hop. “ I just feel
blessed to be able to get this chance to show the world what I’ve been holding inside for
the past 11 years you know.” “ I feel like I have a great support system behind me
because I have two hip-hop legends in my corner, so as far as I’m concerned there ain’t
no place for me to go but to the top.”
Knowledge is currently doing local shows, and shopping his demo, but has yet to attain
a record deal. He is managed by Rob Base & Dj Ez -Rock.
