I started rapping and entertaining in 1983 after hearing The Cold Crush Brothers, Fantastic Freaks,The Treacherous Three, The Mean Machine, Malcom McClaren and The Worlds Famous Supreme Team and others like them for the first time.“It wasn’t really happening in Cali yet, we were still pop locking, break dancing and Locking. When I first heard rap back in 79' i didn't pay much attention to it, until I met Robert Rodriquez who schooled me well as to who was who coming out of NYC.
With the debut of my first LP entitled Escape From Havana on Capitol Records, I created a unique style of rap that traded off between my native tongue Spanish and English, I called it “Spanglish”. I would not only be the creator of “Spanglish” on wax and Spanish rap on a global level, but also the first Latin born rap artist to reach Gold and Platinum sales in the U.S. and Latin America.
A 1 hit; “Mentírosa” (Liar) became my recipe to follow for Latin artists who wanted to rap in Spanglish and bite my stlye. “I was ecstatic to realize I could fulfill my dreams and represent for my Latino people all in one” but I had no idea cats would bite sooo hard. I have opened doors and given birth to too many emcee's to name, but trust when I tell that the list is long and carries some of your favorite rappers of all time.
Yes its true that I have made a career out of having only 1 hit record and a few smaller classics, but that's a lot more than many can say for themselves or their careers. Whats most important to me is the groundbreaking work I put into the music business so that others like me can thrive in the field of music. I don't make false claims, nor do I brag about things I have not done but I am 100% that dude who put you on the map as a people in this great culture, so either show some love or kick rocks fam. Enjoy this little slide show of me,lil Mellow and some others at my nigga O Browns video shoot back in 04/05. See below for more dope facts about me PEACE WORLD.
