Artist Information
Biography
Half Deezy (Ian Vandiver) was born in 1985 on Camp Pendleton Naval Base. He started rapping at age 13, showcasing his talent for peers in school during lunch time freestyle sessions. Freestyling quickly led to full on local battles where he made a name for himself, produced his own CDs and built a solid rep doing showcases in California. Deezy enlisted in the Army in 2005 to support his new baby and wife, but continued to write and perform where and when he could. After a year deployment in Iraq, he is currently stationed in Europe as the S1 NCOIC for 21st TSC-I (Transportation). He wrote and recorded the now infamous first reply “Real Vs. Bitch” to Soulja Boy’s song disrespecting the troops and has well over 500,000 views on you tube from four different videos that have cropped up. Half Deezy is currently working on a full length album so keep your ears open for more great raps from this talented member of the US military!
