Coming
from the borough of Peter Gunzz, Drag On, Krs-1, & Melle Mel is
the newest Bronx rap prodigy DeeMac-aka The Platinum Boy. DeeMac is
the personification of a battle rap. He has rapped against inmates,
underground MC's, & known underground rappers. Mac has been rapping
for only 4-5 years, but he is so vicious that he will cause known rappers
& MC's severe trouble. At 19 years old, Mac has basically completed
3 albums as member of the now defunct group Bloodose & about 3 albums
as a solo arist, not to mention numerous guest appearances on R &
R songs. His rhyme style is Ludacris with a New York accent. Mac is
a rap icon in the making. He has the whole package: he has good lyrics,
a devastating flow, a powerful voice, & a stage presence that'll
bring the ladies to their knees. Mac will appeal to all music &
movies lovers down the line. As mentioned earlier, he has the entire
package.
DeeMac first started rapping at 16 years old. At that time, he was with
local MC, K.L.U. Sheisty. The chemistry wasn't good because KLU was
experienced, & Mac was just starting out. So Mac left off to write
alone & hone his skills. He was eventually introduced to Cookz,
who also happen to be Sha Drama's (Russian Roulette) younger brother.
Since he was already writing & Cookz could rhyme, they decided to
form a group. They called themselves Bloodose, & came in to the
"Attic". Upon completion of their 1st album, DeeMac found
himself as an MC & hasn't been stopped since that time. Even underground
juggernaut C-Rayz Walz has given Mac the green light. In April 2002,
Mac got incarcerated & had to do 8 months on the Island. When he
got home in December of 2002, Mac came to the studio on the same day
that he was released with 60 songs & a fire in his gut. In March
2003, Cookz left the group Bloodose & Mac became a solo artist.
He has since worked with his mentor KLU Sheisty, a song with C-Rayz
is in the making, & he has also done a host of songs with Urban
Renewal. As of now, he has demos at Bay Boy & Def Jam. Mac WILL
be the next "Messiah" of hip-hop. & with the right label
behind him, he will NOT be stopped.
Epilogue:
With Bloodose & a solo career, DeeMac has the potential to be the
next LL Cool J. (Ya' know; the matinee' looks, the good heart, &
deadly rhyme style.) Record companies have to understand that even Rome
wasn't built in a day. Artists have to be molded & shaped for public
consumption. This was CLEARLY understood in the 60's, 70's 80's, &
the early 90's. Unfortunately, we (the hip-hop listeners) have allowed
this travesty of a "musical" corporate takeover to happen.
Let's take back what's ours, let's own what we've earned, & let's
starve all the FAKE artist(s) who are "dancin' fo' Massah".
They (the industry) don't love us. so we shouldn't love them either.
Peace
