C@V a.k.a Jerzeez Dirtiest

"If you are truly hungry, you can never be full" is a quote that stays lodged in the back of Cav's mind as he sits in silence, ever contemplating how he is going to pull this trick out of his sleeve that he so proudly calls, GET 2 KNO ME (The Hunger Pt.0).
With So much young talent on the rise in today's rap game, 20 year old Cavity a.k.a. Cav4Short, seems to have no trouble with finding and carving his own niche.
So WHO IS CAV4SHORT??? Born to the world as Robert Scott, young Cav wasn't always an aspiring rap superstar. However, he was always a multi-talented individual. From football to basketball to baseball to running track to laying tracks down, Cav has proven time and again that he can be whatever he wants to be. Influenced mainly by such artists as Jay-Z, Nas, Cam'ron, The LOX, Eminem, Big L, and Foxy Brown, Cav wrote his first rhymes at the age of 12. "It all started out as some bug out/have fun type sh!t, Cav admits. Although the thought of people ever spitting his lyrics hadn't crossed his mind until about eight years later, young Cav stayed dedicated to what was once a hidden talent. "I never really thought of being a rapper. I mean, not seriously anyway, but I kept writin' to pass the time."
"Mostly all my life, I went to Catholic private schools, nah mean? But I still lived in the hood and I seen alotta foul sh!t go on. I always managed to stay out of trouble though.. I got descent grades, I was nice in sports, but I never really knew what I wanted to do with myself. Feel me? So after high school, I ended up going to Montclair State on a minor football scholarship." Early in the season I had been sidelined for a shoulder injury and had to get surgery. So, my freshman year was pretty much shot from the jump...I started smokin', drinkin', and other types of crazy sh!t that first year college students do. During that time, I noticed that my writing ability and creativity had gone to a new level. I was starting to feel like I could compete with some of my favorite artists that I grew up listening to. From then on, I pretty much completely forgot about school work and started reading books on the music industry. I knew if I was going to make a serious run at this thing I had to use my time wisely and gain more knowledge. Both knowledge of music as a business, as well as knowledge of self..
I believe that "patience is the truest virtue" and that "the cream always rises to the top." I sat back and had time to analyze the game and its present status. Nowadays, everybody is "gangsta'". Everybody is packin'. Now, like I said, I'm IN the hood, I KNOW whats goin' on. I've HAD money. I've BEEN broke. So I defiantely relate to the struggle and what my people are going through. At the same time, I'm not a big time hustlin' type of nigga, but I HAVE sold drugs in order to make ends meet and I know what that lifes like. I'ma a people representa."
Throughout his debut, GET 2 KNO ME, you will definately be able to tell the difference between being a rapper and being a true artist. With such soul-touching lyrics as displayed on songs like "If I Should Die", "My Black People" and "I'm Still Prayin'", Cav seems ready to take his shot at "the league." He still also manages to shake up any room with joints like "The Jumpon" and "Get It Poppin" featuring child-hood friend and teammate, Grand. "Wats Good Daddy?" is that joint that bridges the gap between past and present/Risk vs. Reward...."So I tried to prepare yall to get accustomed to me./Damn! yall niggaz wouldn't listen, my parents wouldn't have it/ Same day the album dropped, they still went grabbed it./That just shows the faith they had in the kid, even tho they didnt even kno he would rap like he did..."
"GET 2 KNO ME is very personal to me..." says Cav about his upcoming release..."and I think alot of people are going to wake up when they hear it. And even the people thats closest to me; from my family to my friends, are going to understand me a lot better."
