About Me |
|
| Rich Brown aka Frio is a novice in the rap game but I would like to think I got no vice. I was first introduced to rap in 1999; when the rapper Eminem went mainstream with his album the Slim Shady LP. As a child my favorite music was Bob Marley and Jerry Garcia. I remember it vividly sitting on the bus in middle school and hearing my first rap song Brain Damage. Besides a little Eminem I was really into reggae bands like Sublime for most of my life. After graduating high school in 2004 I went off to college at SUNY Geneseo to study biology. I met one of my first roomates an African kid named Afam. It was through Afam and later roomates Chad and Royce that I came to first experience hip hop culture and music. My new friends were in a psuedo rap group So Hood and they would all hang out and battle rap at night. I thought it was mad fun being in a room with 4 or 5 people all exchanging rhymes and trying to either vaunt skills or poke fun at somebody. One day in the dormitory I was hanging out doing my thing painting a watercolor for art class when the whole So Hood crew came into the room across the hall to record some tracks on Royce's computer. I was tempted to try and get on the mic but I wasn't to sure about my skills at the time. So Hood member Jason whom I was close to out of the group said I should try to write something. I sat back down at my desk and tried writing what would become my first written freestyle. It was honestly pretty cool; I was trying to be abstract and deep while still making practical sense and rhyming. I never actually recorded that day or at all with So Hood but they definitely had a real large impact on me getting into hip hop. I wound up getting dismissed from college for academic reasons which was kind of embarrasing coming back home a failure. I went through some hard times after failing out of college. I probably failed out of college because of trouble with my girlfriend Sarah; but I don't know why everything seemed to just fall apart after that. In December of 2006 I ordered a bunch of cd's online and one of them was Eminem presents the Re-Up. I was you could say extremely inspired by the Re-Up and it was because of this album I decided that rap was something I wanted to master as an art and it would become my new life's passion. I started where I left off and recorded my first written, which I named First Timer Shorty. I chose the beat We Fly High because at the time I never left the house without my prescription aviators and the intro seemed like the perfect introduction for me; not to mention the beat is just ridiculous. I recorded 3 other freestyles I wrote after listening to the Re-Up when all that inspiration hit me but the files got deleted so those tracks are gone unless someone downloaded them the short time they were on myspace. I have several rough tracks completed from a project I have been working on with the Chronic 2001 intstrumentals cd. I have another track I am working on re-doing over the Doin Time instrumentals record from Marshall Goodman. I just started working with a local musician/producer who goes by the name 86 and we are going to be putting out a 5 track demo over some of his original beats. I just shot a video for my track 310 To Hoboken, which will be featured on quocity.com. I'm still looking for more producer's to work with so I can branch my style into some new genre's so if you wanna work with me just send me a message. That's what you are dealing with. One Love peeps. God Bless. | |
