I was born in Vallejo and raised in Fairfield CA. Fairfield is a different little city but its packed full of talented people. It’s very diverse in Fairfield as well being that most of the people are coming from the bay area also the air force base in the city. So I think it was the perfect mix for me growing up. The city wasn’t too big to get lost in.

Moving to H-Town in 1997, I was introduced to artists such as Killa Kyleon, OG Ron C, Freestyle Kings, Wrecking Yard, DJ Screw, Paul Wall, Chamillionare, Color Changing Clique, 50/50 Lil Twin, Agony Life, Mike Jones, 5th Ward Boyz, UGK, Geto Boys, Scarface, Slim Thugg, Boss Hogg Outlawz, ZRo, Trae Tha Truth, Big Pokey, Chalie Boy, ABN, Lil Flip, Odd Squad, Lil Keke and the list goes on!….We used to see and hear about all the swangers, the diamonds, the grills, and i remember telling myself “i want to get like that”. my biggest inspiration believe it or not was outside of houston, jada kiss, styles p, lil wayne and my life. its like the things they talk about is identical or close to the way i live.

Like I said before, I was into music in the late 90’s which was around the time I first started living in Charlotte, and around that time Charlotte really didn’t have they own sound that you can identify, well at least one I was a where of. So I ended up listening to whatever I was in to which was mainly east coast rap at that time, but of course I later became a lover of that south shit when Jeezy hit.

Being from an island reggae is the most popular genre of music, so I wasn’t really exposed to a lot of Rap/Hip-Hop music until I started taking a real interest in it. I remember being over a friends house and him being American, was playing Bone Thugs-n-Harmony and it captivated me. I went home and searched more of their music and I just became a real fan of Hip-Hop ever since.

I’m currently working on my 3rd mix tape “This is Me” which is set to release late April. The title pretty much explains the theme behind it. After the release of my 2nd project “Chicago’s Very Own” I’ve decided to go to higher levels with my music and improve. What I’m working on will be like nothing I’ve released in the past. It only gets better from here on out. My 3rd project will give fans a chance to see how much I’ve truly developed as an artist.

I spent my childhood in Aurora. I started rapping mostly because I was bored in class. I was advanced as a kid and my teachers couldn’t hold my attention. I was also into singing more than rapping at first. I started out in choir and loved it. I think Salt N Pepa and Bone Thugs N Harmony were the first groups to really inspire me as a rapper. As far as singing, I was obsessed with Usher’s first album.

It’s cool. “Cool” is the right word I feel.. it’s cool. I like Kendrick Lamar, Big Sean, J.Cole, their talented. Thumbs up to Kanye West for snagging’ Kim and bringing a baby into the world, that’s cool. Drake and Chris Brown throwing bottles at each other in clubs, that’s pretty cool too. I like the scene today.

Hip-Hop in Virginia growing up was under the Dirty South influence. We had the trap music in heavy rotation along with our own hometown hitters, Missy Elliot, Timbaland, The Clipse. Pretty much we stayed up to date.

It’s not to big in Minnesota. That’s why I’m trying to put on for my state and put Minnesota on the map. I mean there is a lot of good rappers that are pretty big here like Lil Crazed & Liquid Assassin. I’m still trynna get on their level though! I’m meeting new people everyday and getting more connected with people in the music industry.

We’ve worked with producers such as Boi 1da, Mega Man and other local producers that have a similar sound as we do, we try to not ony bring up ourselves but those around us who’ve helped us as well. We would like to work with Dr. Dre, Young Chop, Eminem, DJ Scream, T-Minus and any other producer that would be wiling to work with 10Yards.

Hip-Hop was always a major role growing up every influential, everything about where I’m from is Hip-Hop. I grew up in Hip-Hop when lyrics mattered. There are so many talented artist in the city of Trenton but just haven’t caught that big break. It feels as if it’s overlooked at times. A lot of artist trying to get in just as it was when I was there as a young-in one thing no one can ever say about Jersey is that we have our own style and trends.

The Hip-Hop scene for me growing up was real building the respect and level it reached until it branched out and changed. I was also listening to legends like Biggie, Nas, Jay-Z to get a better understanding of true Hip-Hop. But in the process of still growing up music started to branch out and change so being where I’m from it was hard to understand the reasons behind music change.

When I was younger on my Walkman all I listened to was Twista, Mystikal, the whole No Limit camp, Outkast, 2 Pac and Biggie. I wanted to be like them. I seen all the fans, love, and support they were getting and I wanted that too. So because of that, they all motivated and inspired me to write music and work hard at getting to where I want to be.

Growing up I always loved music especially around the time 50 cent came out. Right away I was inspired by 50’s music and business mind because I was never dumb with money and was smart enough at a young age to keep in mind that I will attend college some day, so 50 Cent being street and smart really appealed to me and helped me relate even more. This now makes perfect sense to why I now attend a prestigious college for business even though I grew up mostly struggling living in the projects with my moms to being taken by foster care. Going through many hard times at home, I began thinking about things in different ways while being inspired by everything going on in hiphop at the time, bumping Jeezy, 50, Game, Jay-z, Fabolous, Banks, and then I started tuning to a lot of Lil Wayne. Basically, after a couple years of Wayne, I started trying to rap by age 17 about what I did with my boys and everything I was going through.
