". . . If you're askin' for real talk, well this as real as it gets/ I'm the shit, you can tell from the smell when I spit." A line that resonates long after you stop listening to '100 Bars and Walkin'. If there is one thing Little Dude is not lacking it is confidence.
Little Dude (real name Jacob Quimby) is the breath of fresh air the hip-hop game is looking for. In an era diluted with dance crazes, and simple lyrics, Little Dude is not ashamed to brandish his lyrical prowess and bravado.
Born and raised in a Laconia, NH (a small city in the center of the state) Little Dude wasn't a rapper right away. Always excelling in English and writing, he knew he was destine to express himself, but initially, hip-hop was more of an escape than a tool.
Once arriving at college, it was a chance battle at a party that exposed his skills. Upon winning that battle, it was clear what he was born to do. Quickly he grew a name for himself, freestylin' at parties, and on campus radio shows. Shortly there after he formed a group, BNB. BNB is a group consisting of himself, Big Cal (aka Big Ron, aka Ronald Harvey), GBZ (aka Johnny Cash, aka Gil Burnett) and Poppa Silk (aka Dslik, aka Douane Anderson.)
After several outside influences all but disbanded the group, it was Little Dude who was left to go forward alone.
Never intending on being a solo artist, Little Dude reluctantly began recording the tracks that are now floating around the internet. With a new found passion, and a new direction, Little Dude is all but ready to make a full push a stardom. Keep your eyes on this page, as there are only bigger and better things expected from Little Dude, and his BNB camp.
