  • Bio

    Microphone Beast. Undeniable Presence. An Irresistible Force. This New Orleans-born (504), Oklahoma-bred (918), ATL-certified (404) emcee is poised to merge the mainstream & underground in hip-hop. A true wordsmith, BIGREC simply moves people. He made his charismatic presence felt globally by appearing on the internationally-syndicated WHEEL OF FORTUNE. The major highlight, however, was becoming the FIRST [& currently, only] person to actually rap on the renown game show. BIGREC has been branded as a high-energy, dominant performer, who commands & holds the attention of the audience with diverse music & crystal-clear lyricism. Equally diverse has been his audience, having shared stages with the likes of Juvenile, Paul Wall & Devin the Dude...to that of Raekwon, Buckshot & KRS-ONE. His 2004 debut LP "Chronicles: The Lineage, Life & Legacy" received critical acclaim from several underground sources. His sophomore effort, "Go Hard...The Album" was a tribute to his home of 13 years, Tulsa, Oklahoma. His songs "Nostalgia", "Life Is a Process", "Go Hard/Go Hard REMIX" dominated Oklahoma urban radio from 2004-2006. After relocating to Atlanta, GA in 2007, BIGREC has achieved numerous accolades for his performances throughout the ATL underground scene. In 2009, he aligned with four renown underground veterans to form hip-hop super-crew THE-5IVE [made up of himself, Jawz of Life, K.P., Shred The Verbal Tongue & Snub Zero]. BIGREC has garnered the respect of his peers, while winning over several industry heavyweights, most notably legendary producer/MC Diamond D of Digging In The Crates (D.I.T.C.) fame. With an exclusive project w/ Diamond D on deck, and a full-length opus yet to come, BIGREC is well on his way to becoming one of the prominent voices of his time. At the heart of this modern-day 'renaissance man' is a viral movement currently making a mark in the ATL music scene: RHHIB [REAL HIP HOP IS BACK]. Emphasizing the fusion of 'mainstream' & 'underground' hip hop, BIGREC has his finger on the pulse of something monumental. The mission is to bridge the gap between the youth and the elders, between the past & future in an effort to see the sustenance hip-hop culture in society. With the balance of hip hop in question, REC presents answers many have been looking for. More than Music...it's a Movement: RHHIB!

    What's good!

    How are you doing today?  I hope that all is well with you.  First and foremost, I would like to thank you for all the love and support that you have shown me.  I couldn't have done without you.  I'm excited to tell you that I will be performing live on March 25 at the Apache Cafe with DJ Teknology.  It will be an honor to have you and your friends to come and enjoy the "Purple Heart" experience.  I wish you a great day, and I'm looking forward to seeing you on the 25th!

    Peace
