Brooklyn's own Flash is poised to hit the scene after serveral years of gaining notoriety in Brooklyn's mixtape circuit. Flash officially made his name known in 2003 with the release of "Grimelord Vol.I" which introduced listeners to his unique voice and gritty flow, crafted by the harsh and unyielding streets of Brownsville. Flash was able to witness first hand the realities of street life and the music industry early on in life.
Music was a part of Flash's home life since his birth. Flash's grandfather ,Willie Denson(R.I.P google Willie Denson)published more than 250 songs recorded by artist such as Aretha Franklin, Gene Pitney,The Ronettes,The Shirelles and many more. Willie used to sing his music and other jingles to flash and he also encouraged his young child to pursue a career in music. With the help of this male figure Flash was able to avoid the snares and pitfalls of street life, but he endured enough bumps and bruises along the way to know that this way of life didn't contain many options. He began rhyming at the age of 16 and didn't look back.
Flash's first single "Get Use To It" Feat. Stimuli is set to drop this Summer 07. Also due to drop this summer is Flash's first collaborative effort, "Hometown Heroes". This project will feature Flash, Suny Redd(Two Trains upcoming artist) and Lenny S Recording artist Stimuli. This album will undoubtedly show the world that Flash is a force to be wreckoned with and will definitly inspire many in the game to take heed. Stay tuned
