Bobby Creekwater, real name Antione Rogers, was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia. He attended Clark Atlanta University for one year
before leaving to pursue his music career. He and Charlie Hustle formed the hip hop duo Jatis, which was signed to Columbia Records and
then Loud Records, but Loud was shut down before Jatis could release an album.
As an unsigned artist in 2004, Creekwater
appeared with Aasim on the song "Anyway", from P-Money's album Magic City. Creekwater was noticed by Shady Records when label
executives heard him rapping on a demo by Aasim. Shady Records president Eminem was more interested in Creekwater than Aasim and, in
July of 2005, signed him to his label.
In late 2005, Creekwater released a mixtape, Anthem to the Streets, which was hosted by DJ Don Cannon of the Aphiliates. With
more than 250,000 copies distributed worldwide, it has easily become one of the greatest mixtapes numbers-wise of all time. Newsweek
described the recording in positive terms, saying it "delivers drug-peddling tales over the cheeriest possible tracks. Sesame Street
sings crack rap."
In March 2006, he was one of the celebrity panelists at the Detroit Hip-Hop Summit on Financial Empowerment,
joined by the likes of Russell Simmons, Eminem, 50 Cent, among others.
In 2007 he released two mixtapes, "Anthem 2 Da Streetz II", which was hosted by DJ
Cannon of the Aphilliates and "Back to Briefcase", which was hosted by DJ Infamous of The Aphilliates. Collectively, the two mixtapes
have been distributed more than 350,000 times worldwide. The Washington Post's critic, in writing about the single "Acid Reign", said
Creekwater "threatens to usurp T.I.'s throne as King of the South with effortless rhymes and slow-burning brio."
On Halloween

Silence is the great teacher, and to learn its lessons you must pay attention to it. There is no substitute for the creative inspiration, knowledge, and stability that come from knowing how to contact your core of inner silence. The great Sufi poet Rumi wrote, ''Only let the moving waters calm down, and the sun and moon will be reflected on the surface of your being.
