SLAP K. [Born Dionate’ Hart on March 3, 1982; in Gastonia, NC] began writing rhymes as a freshman in high school. Inspired by; Slick Rick, Rakim, N.W.A, Redman, Andre 3000, Nas, Jay-Z, 2Pac, Notorious B.I.G, Lupe Fiasco, KanYe West, The Game, Lil' Wanye, Ludacris, T.I., Rick Ross, Sonny Rich and many more.
In 2001, at age 19, SLAP joined the United States Army. He took a break from the music until his second tour in Korea, in 2004-05. It was there, where he would start back writing and even join in battles; he came in 3rd place in his first battle. The battle would lead SLAP to recording his first track.
After Korea, SLAP would then go on assignment to Hawaii. While in Hawaii; SLAP linked up with fellow soldiers Lo-Key and King James. Combining with the rhymes of Lo-Key, and the production of King James, SLAP & Lo-Key would introduce Hawaii to IBL. Inspired by Life; a name the two felt fit the description of their combined styles. In late 2006, IBL completed their first project together: The Mass Punishment Mixtape Vol.1. In 2007, the duo would increase their buzz by performing in local night clubs.
Currently, since SLAP’s departure from the army, SLAP has worked on solo material and continues to grind as an underground artist. He competed in the Loud.com online competition and was also featured on Slip-N-Slide Records: On Da Grind [Nov. 2007-Jan. 2008].
