He's what should be called "The Premium Blend", but this guy is no joke....on the mic OR behind the boards. Ladies and gentlemen....Fred Strife.
At the still ripe age of 23, this New Brunswick, NJ native is detsined to be one of the most acclaimed emcees and producers to date. His trademark vocal tone, baritone with a nasal tinge, will grab you the moment you hear it. His lyrics could be most accurately described as a pschyoanalysis. With every word, he paints a picture of his life growing up. He stands out for many of today's most popular emcees in many ways. He only kills people with undeniably bangin' lyrics and equally captivating soundscapes. From his songs alone, he invites you into his mind. It's a war zone and a wonderland simultaneously, but he's not afraid of showing his true emotions. And that's what keepin' it real is supposed to be.Band/artist history
Started rappin during the "Death Row" era (circa '92-'93). Was inspired by a St. Ides Commercial featruing Snoop. Started making tracks around mid-98 when I started work on my first albumHave you performed in front of an audience?As of right now, I am tryin' to work out some live shows. If everything goes planned, the small club tour should start around late May-Early June. But I do love performing. It's a rush
