The Start

Robert Houston II aka Black Pegasus comes straight out of Colorado Springs, CO. Black P

started his solo career after members of his group (F.O.S.) were incarcerated during their tour

in 2001.

Okay lets back up....

After recording a handful of demos Black Pegasus went to Austin, TX (at the SXSW

music conference) with producer BaseJase and hooked up with

Chuck D who played these demos on his radio show "Bring the Noise". Later that year

Black Pegasus embarked on his first album with F.O.S., using a quote from

Chuck D " F.O.S. These Kids are Hot", to lead the album off.

Professional Pavement Pounders

Black Pegasus invented the "hip-hop night" in central Colorado in 2000 and 2001, doing shows

for ten people or one- hundred, eventually building a fan base that is the biggest for any

rap artist in Colorado. Black Pegasus averages four-hundred to six-hundred people a show,

as tracked on the Pollstar. Black Pegasus frequently opens up for national acts and

promotes his own shows on a consistent basis

Sexy Video Killah

2001 Black Pegasus released Sexy Video Killah EP which put the spotlight on him as a solo

artist. In 2003 he followed up with "My Album Ain't Done Yet" which is hottest selling album

by a local artist in Colorado to date.

MTV and Acclaim NBA Jams 2

In 2002 Black Pegasus found himself in the regional spotlight with national airplay, by way of

MTV's Road Rules TV show. Black Pegasus' music is playing daily on Road Rules and Real

World on MTV, thanks to the company Bunim-Murray. In 2003 Acclaim licensed music from

Black Pegasus for use on their NBA Jams 2 video game which is heard globally.

Jay Z Roc the Mic

stage with Jay-Z in front of 20,000 people as one of the finalist at the "Roc the Mic" battle in

Denver.
