Dubbed "The Truth", 100 Proof brings to the studio his hunger for wisdom. He puts into his lyrics principles, priorities, and discipline from an urban perspective combined with the rawness and reality of his environment and self. He puts forth effort to keep his music and ideas real, realizing that greatness is an everyday battle to stay true to ones own reality while constantly pushing forward. As commented by a true 100 Proof fan, "100 Proof is what you get. An onslaught of verbal calistenics on the coldest beats made from scratch. Real raw and un-cut. No where near one pin-pointing style. 100 Proof carries a versatile swagg from track to track and you can bet that."
Born and raised on the South Side of Youngstown, Ohio, 100 Proof has always been a man with a lot to say and roots in hip hop.

When asked to describe himself, 100 Proof answers, "Ladies and Gentlemen: I live everyday of my life tryin' to keep it one hundred; Let my ambitions and successes, As well as my mistakes, and my failures be the proof. You ain't gotta like me, but you will respect me. I'm from Youngstown, Ohio born and raised and neva claim no other. I believe in what's Real. There is a purpose for everything and everybody - the trick is figuring out what yours is and then having the discipline to follow through with the gifts and talent that makes you a worthy agent for that purpose. This is why keeping it real is essential to survival, no entity, non what so ever can survive with longevity when it is forged and maintained in untruth. So state yo name, how, and why you came then do what you do, and everything gone be slick, I got nothing else for yall that's it. ONE Love. -100"
