Bio
Growing up in a small town in Michigan, Muskegon is a tough place to grow up for a young black boy. Age of 8 years old, a young A-dot was heavily influenced by the block of videos that were always aired on B.E.T., later in this stage I was surrounded by music from all senses through my body. My older cousin "Yung Product" was a major influence to my production, he introduced me to fruity loops in which today my beats are professional at age 16. I started writing rhymes at age 9 & formed my label/group "Young-N-Thuggin Records" shorted to "Y.N.T.". This group consist of 4 artist including me & a D.J., the artist are Yung Rees, Unleash, Yung Chase, & I. The D.J. is Maniac, a mentor to me up to date. During Lil' Wayne's prime I was influenced to work on a mixtape in the summer of 2008, by early 2009 I had finished two mixtapes titled "Blaze Fire" & "The Illustration". Two months later I had finished "Buildin An Empire" with my group "Y.N.T.". In the summer of 2009 I've been planning to release all three titles digitally & through the streets. Currently I'm working on the finishing touches of "The Illustration", late 2008 a unofficial mixtape of "The Illustration" was released on minor internet sites & could be downloaded for free on "datpiff.com", just to get a feel of what I'm about to do to the rap game. Honestly, I'm sixteen years old & so talented that I have to be very confident in what i do best, also self-claim myself to be the "hottest teenage rapper ever". Basically, I mean I am up to par with big time industry rap artist, & I study how they become who they are, also how they came about & I try my best to do the same. My music is self explanatory, judge for yourself, I AM THE FUTURE OF HIP-HOP!
