Well, It all started one X-mas morning for Chilly"B". Then at the tender age of 5, he was awakened in the anticipation to see all what his parents (erm) Santa had left him the night before. By the way, Chilly just found out the other day that there was no such thing as Santa. :0( lol. Anyway, he received many gifts that morning but there was one that he cherished the most. It was a toy keyboard. Chilly discarded all other toys and presents and played with his lil piano til he fell off to sleep. His father remembers how his son could come close to playing almost any song he heard. He knew then that his son was blessed by God with the gift of music. Chilly"B" has an incredible ear for music. Nearly perfect in pitch and tone.
Later in life while attending a block party in his neighborhood in Bed-Sty Brooklyn, he was watching a band perform and fell in love with the Bass guitar. Having never taken a single lesson, he picked up on it just like he did his lil toy piano that X-mas morning. Whatever bass line he heard he could play or came very close to playing it. He also played his own original lines. Chilly played for a few bands in his youth. Playing rock, R&B, jazz and reggae. He'll never forget his 1st. band called " ThunderFunk" which was a top 40 rock band. There is where he became closer with Ben"Cozmo-D"Cenac. Ben was the keyboardist of the group.
Cozmo"D" is one of the founders of the JamOn Crew, a DJing and MC crew. Chilly and Cozmo grew up on the same Bed-Sty block, Bainbridge St. Both were DJs also. The Jam On Crew was legendary in the hood for all their parties and street battles(non-violent). Chilly joined up with the crew by helping carry the equipment and the endless crates of records. Every kid on the block wanted to be apart of the Jam On crew, and in a way, they all were. One thing was for sure, the Jam On crew was family.
Because of their love for music, Cozmo and Chilly came together to make their own music. Cozmo purchased some musical and recording equipment and Chilly came with his bass guitar and their music journey began. They called themselves "Positive Messengers" both are deeply rooted in the Faith. Chilly married Monique aka.(Nique"D") Cozmo's 1st cousin and Cozmo married his long time sweetheart Evette aka.(Lady"E"). Then *BAM* Newcleus was born.To pick up the story from there, go to myspacenewcleus.
