Kid Named Breezy is often referred to as Mr. Snapback, currently seen as one of the freshest emcees in the game. But don’t get it twisted, this VA newcomer doesn't sacrifice “swag” for lyrical prowess – in fact, Breezy doesn’t see why being young and fly can’t team up with dope lyrics in order to create hip-hop’s perfect artist. Breezy names Tupac, Fresh Prince and a Tribe Called Quest as his main influences.
Diversity is plain and evident after one listen to Breezy’s latest mixtape release, “Snapback with a Life Full.” With a 90’s style of fashion (surely that’s where Fresh Prince comes into play) and putting emphasis on the 90’s aspect of hip-hop, Breezy is able to tell stories through his music.
“Snapback with a Life Full” is available now and features Pusha T from the Clipse, one of Kanye West’s front men on his G.O.O.D. Music label who was featured on Kanye’s Grammy nominated and performed single, “Runaway” off his multi-platinum album “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.”
“Snapback with a Life Full” can be heard at DatPiff.
People began taking notice to Breezy with those latest tape; feats were accomplished such as being featured on MTV2’s Sucker Free Freestyle spotlight. The single with Pusha T and Jigg titled “See About Us” or “We Right Here” was selected as AllHipHop’s “heater of the day” as well as being featured on popular sites/blogs such as HipHopDX, HotNewHipHop, NahRight and more. - Lee Rachelle

Bio

In Hip-Hop, paying it forward is about continuing a legacy of musicianship that represents an authentic voice of the people; and for Virginia bred emcee, Kid Named Breezy, whose mantra is “bring the abstract to life” that is precisely what he intends to do. Young Bradley Hunt was raised in the small city of Alexandria Va. At the age of 14 months, he suffered the tragic loss of his mother at the hands of a drunk driver. Raised by his father, a self made entrepreneur, Kid remembers those early lean years with his father as playing an intricate role in formulating his love for music. Long car rides listening to his dad’s live band CD’s and then favorite rapper, Will Smith, planted the seeds that would grow into a skilled passion.

At the age of 11 Kid discovered his gift of poetry. His capacity to marry words and emotions caught the eye of an author who wanted to publish the writings of the young scribe in a book, but the Kid thought nothing of it. By the age of 15 his love of words had transcended to music and he began writing songs.

As a student and adherent of all genres of music, his consciousness was touched as he began to find his own voice by learning from the essence of those he admires like: Tupac, Nas, A Tribe Called Quest, The Fresh Prince Will Smith, and Outkast. “I don’t feel like a lot of the records that are out now can be considered what’s fundamentally known as music” Kid explains “I want the message in my music to far out live my physical life.”

His debut mixtape, Snap Back With a Life Full, features appearances by Pusha T and Black Cobain. "Pusha T showed me love and it's big to have a vet like him working with me on my project." His recently released mixtape '93' seemed to catch a lot of attention stemming from his video for "Tonight's The Night" guest starring Redman, in an ode to his classic record. As Kid prepares for his next projects, he plans to continually change the way music is received.

When it comes to his music, Kid wants to leave the listener with a feeling and something to think about so he makes the conscious decision to remain reflective and relevant without sounding preachy. “ I make art and enjoy myself doing it. Those two elements allow the music to become timeless. If people can enjoy me enjoying music than we have allowed the circle of abstract music to run its course!"
