"New Orleans raised me, but Connecticut adopted me in 2005 at the age of 12. I started off singing songs to myself and it soon became a hobby. Not realizing it, I was developing my vocal chords at an enormous rate. I started to believe in myself and knew that if I wanted to pursue a career in music, I would have to find a studio. With no job nor money, I had to come up with a way to record my music for free. So, I chose to sing on anyone's song for free in exchange for studio time. I was getting it, studio sessions after school, on the weekends, and every holiday. At one point I skipped school for 2 weeks straight, just to record. I soon began performing at small clubs around the city. I joined in competitions, winning some and of course losing some, but my sound always seemed to touch at least one person in the crowd. I met a club promoter by the name of "Razberry", she signed me up for NBC's "The Voice". I was accepted and quickly flown out to California, where I met Shakira, Usher, Adam Levine, Blake Shelton and many other celebrities. I lost the show and came back to New Orleans. Same neighborhood, same struggle, same grind, with the same brothers I started with. We've all been denied many times before but we've also kicked down a lot of walls. There's been people smiling upon us and we've also seen frowns, but to me it's all motivation to keep pushing.
"Hello everyone, my mom named me Brunieka, but to you I'm "The President". "Briki Fa President" that is. First thing's first, I started writing poetry when I was about 8 years old (1996). I started adding beats and rhythm to my poems and then noticed I could pursue rap music. By the age of 13, I recorded my first rap song with "No Limit's" music producer DJ Black-N-Mild. As the years went by my talent started to expand and I became a Rapper, Singer, Poet, and Actress. People tend to say my style is "versatile", but honestly whatever comes out, that's just what it is.
My main focus is to be the best at what I do and to be viewed as original, and not your typical female artist. I want to give women around the world confidence in themselves that they never knew they had. I want us to be able to say, "Hey, you're no better than I am, I can stand toe to toe with you!"
I want to make music for every emotion I feel as a human being, and to not just stick with one energy. I want my fans to feel exactly what I'm feeling and hear the passion in my voice as I speak it. So people get ready for me!" -Briki Fa President
Born into the name of Henry William Alexander Jr, but I go by Niggrowth. I was born on May 24, 1990 and hail from Uptown New Orleans eleventh ward, born and raised. Growing up I encountered life's harsh conditions early on: given my socioeconomic status as well as witnessing my mother do drugs right in front of my face. Growing up I idolized rappers from Cash Money/No Limit Records and Jay-Z. By my pops "Palameno" owning his own record shop, music has always been readily available for my eager ears. With countless albums at my fingertips, I began rapping at the tender age of six. I was so confident in my skills I would even criticize my dad's friend Birdman, telling him he couldn't rap! My music is available on soundcloud and my debut album, "Cracked Baby", is on it's way.
Wahnnnnn! I go by the name of Deezy Aramazi and I'm here to spit to you a better life in which I feel we should live. Born a gemini, in the month of June, as Dalvin Quinn. I've always been called one of the lucky few in New Orleans to have a full set of parents in my life and a loving granny, giving me that extra knowledge about life. I just want my fans to know, what I put out is nothing but real, and exactly how I feel about that certain topic. Listen to my music and I guarantee you'll see the light in this young star shooting straight from the bottom.
Wats Good WORLD , I go by Kush Marley. I'm originally born and raised in New Orleans , Louisiana (EASTSIDE) to be exact. Unfortunately like others in my city Hurricane Katrina took a big toll on my lifestyle that I live today. During the hurricane I was actually one of those people that was on there roof trying to survive 4 days straight before being rescued. I can say all praise to the most high im truly blessed to be here today because not everybody survived that tragic situation. Right after Katrina me & my family finally relocated to Houston, Texas. I was 12 when it happened and im 22 now. The reason I make music today and feel I have a purpose is because I look at myself as a voice for the YOUTH and I just want to spread positivity in the world. In my opinion HIP HOP to be exact is just not the same today. I feel its more so just an activity then a lifestyle. Music should either have a message or be a getaway when needed. That’s exactly why I still have faith in being an artist. Why? Because I have a story to tell but also know how to have a good time. If you worried about the future don’t trip, I gotcha!! YOUNG KING #yeauhhhh
