Bio


Chris Corleone

Talented, Focused, and Determined, are three words that best describe 25-year old Maryland artist…Chris Corleone. Growing up in a loving and nurturing environment, Chris Corleone was born coming out the womb with a “can do” attitude.  As a young toddler, he would impress strangers who would often ask, “What is his name because one day he will be famous.”  He was so articulate and well spoken at the age of four that he could impress anyone and converse on many different subjects.  But he developed a genuine interest and love for music from listening to  his parents’ musical repertoire from the 70s and 80s…Earth, Wind, and Fire, Marvin Gaye, Teddy Pendergrass, Michael Jackson,The O’Jays, etc.  Corleone’s thirst for knowledge and music was contagious because he started writing lyrics and developing his rhyming techniques at a young age.  He also started developing his skills on the piano and drums.  However, Corleone’s journey did not begin until years after he finished high school, when he had an epiphany to become a musical engineer while working a retail position at HH Gregg.  At that point, Corleone started saving his resources to purchase studio equipment to further his quest to produce music with his friends.   Corleone’s unique style did not fully develop until he went away to college at the University of Louisville, that is when he met another individual by the name of Norris, who also had a thirst for the music business.  Norris became very instrumental in Corleone’s development of rhymes and lyrics, he also became a brother and mentor.  Corleone and Norris began to develop music and their music started circulating on the campus.  The students gave them so much positive feedback that they began to be known as a musical commodity by almost everyone on campus.  However, Corleone’s success was short-lived because shortly thereafter his mother became very ill and he had a beautiful son in the Fall of 2010 named Jayden.  As a direct result,  Corleone returned to the Maryland area to help his family.   Upon returning to Maryland, Corleone also suffered from a brief period of depression which caused him a few setbacks and frustration.  However, somehow, God delivered Corleone from this period of depression, and through determination and perseverance he was able to find the motivation to turn his life story into a work of art.   Corleone’s  first mix tape entitled, “No Mercy, No Surrender”, was released in the summer of 2013.  The feedback from the first mix tape was so positive that Corleone was motivated to go back into the studio and produce a second project which he is  currently working on now.  During the interim period, Corleone has performed in a number of gigs across the tri-state  (Maryland/Virginia/Washington, DC) area, as well as private functions throughout the Maryland area. In closing, Chris Corleone wants his readers to know that, with God in his life and on his side, he knows that nothing is impossible,  just merely another obstacle to overcome!  The best is yet to come….
