SUNYREDD WAS BORN IN BROOKLYN NY. AT AN EARLY AGE HIS PARENTS ALWAYS ENGAGED HIM IN THE CIRLCE OF MUSIC AND HE FOUND THE LOVE OF ENTERTAINMENT AND SPORTS.

HIS DREAMS WERE TO EITHER BE A NBA STAR OR RAP ARTIST TOURING THE WORLD. SUNYREDD AND A CLOSE COUSIN FREQUENTLY ENTERED LOCAL TALENT SHOWS AND CONTEST THROUGHOUT THE CITY. DURING HIS HIGH SCHOOL YEARS HE GAINED EXCITMENT IN THE HIP HOP CULTURE, THIS BEING FASHION, DANCE, GRAPHITTI, AND RAP BATTLES.

SOON AFTER HIS LOVE FOR HIP HOP, SUNY BEGAN TO LOSE FOCUS ON SPORTS AND STARTED TO GET LOST IN THE STREET LIFE. HOWEVER THIS OPENED HIS EYES TO REALIZING HIS FULL POTENTIAL AND CREATIVITY AS A WRITER.

AS HE GOT OLDER AND WISER WHILE SPREADING HIS POPULARITY IN EAST FLATBUSH, BROOKLYN, SUNY HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO MEET OTHER PEOPLE IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY WHO TOOK NOTICE OF HIS TALENT. AT THAT TIME HE WAS ABLE TO SHAKE HANDS WITH, ERIC NICKS, SHUGA BEAR, FOXY BROWN, THE HENCHMEN ENTERTAINMENT AND MANY OTHER KNOWN FACES IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY. SUNYREDD THEN BEGAN RECORDING SONGS, WHICH LED HIM TO RECEIVE A DEVELOPMENTAL DEAL WITH DEFJAM RECORDINGS WITH THE HELP OF ERIC NICKS AND ANTON (FOXY BROWN'S OLDEST BROTHER). ALTHOUGH HE RECORDED SONGS, THE SITUATION WAS NOT AS SUCCESFUL AS HE WOULD HAVE WISHED , THEREFORE HE EXPLORED OTHER DIRECTIONS TO MAP OUT HIS CAREER.

AS TIME PROGRESSED, THIS DEDICATED ARTIST HAD TO CONTINUE WORKING HARD AND STAY ON THE GRIND. THERE WERE TIMES THAT HIS VISION OF BEING A MAINSTREAM ARTIST WAS UNREACHABLE AND SUNY WANTED TO THROW IT ALL AWAY. BUT THANKS TO A GREAT CIRCLE OF FRIENDS AND SUPPORTIVE FAMILY, HE GOT BACK IN THE STUDIO AND NEVER FORGOT THAT HE WOULD NEVER GIVE UP. THROUGH THE STRUGGLES OF LIFE, HE BEGAN TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE MUSIC BUSINESS AND THAT YOU MUST STAY FOCUSED 100%. AS TIME CONTINUED SUNY ENROLLED HIMSELF AT THE INSTITUTE OF AUDIO RESEARCH IN NYC, WHERE HE STUDIED MUSIC AND VIDEO PRODUCTION. WHILE IN SCHOOL MANY OF THE TALENTED AND PRODUCTIVE STUDENTS SHARED THE SAME INTERESTS AS HE DID WHICH KEPT HIM POSITIVE ABOUT THE FUTURE.

CURRENTLY, SUNYREDD IS STILL FREQUENTLY RECORDING MUSIC FOR HIS FANS. HE RECENTLY LINKED WITH SHA STIMULI & FLASH TO FORM THE SUPER GROUP "HOMETOWN HEREOS". EACH OF THESE SOLO ARTISTS BRING A NEW FLAVOR THATS DIFFERENT AND UNIQUE TO THE TABLE. OVER TIME SUNY REDD HAS BEGAN TO SHARPEN HIS WORLD PLAY AND MAY BE CONSIDERED VERY OUTSPOKEN AND SARCASTIC. WITH THE LONG AWAITED "HOMETOWN HEREOS" MIX CD HOSTED BY "DJ BIG MIKE" DROPPING DURING THE FALL/WINTER 2007 THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT RECORD EXEC'S WILL BE CHECKING FOR THIS DYNAMIC AND UNPREDICTABLE FREE AGENT.
