SKULLZ-Official Biography
occupation: Actor,Singer,Composer
residence: Atlanta,GA/Brooklyn,NY
age: Twenty-Something
It starts off like the movie "The Skulls," with money, power and respect, but the rapper Skullz and his Undaaworld/Skullzangels label have only invitations. Then again he isnt your average rapper, he''s a phenomenom.
The impending release of the Skullz Is Comin mixtape cd, his first set on Undaaworld/Skullzangels, already has fans feinding for Skullz. His toned voice paints pictures of partying, struggle and pain with conviction. Though at times his lyrics brand the reason why he is named after a Skull. The 19 cut-collection contains some of the most twisted lyrics and beats ever recorded.
For Skullz, most of his content can be controversial for the Atlanta rapper. "I relate to so many people in the world," he says."Everywhere I laid had the same drama, same hood, same n***az. Everybody down to ride and roll out, get money how ever way. I''m scarred for life, the horrors i went thru with my family and alone. It''s when i came to Atlanta I understood the meaning of ballin."
Skullz has become a savior to many soldiers in the rappers Atlanta residence. When he rides
through the hood, Skullz gives love and ambition
to his n***az. "WHO WANT IT?" and "GBOY" are two
songs ready for the streets, making Skullz a
household name in many cities and hoods. All
songs are comprised for the release of "Skullz Is Comin," produced primarily by Skullz and his Skullzangels logo.
2001, Skullz and L.A formed a merging
corporation, from their illegal/legal hustles,
which would soon be known as Undaaworld/Skullzangels. Known in the streets
the duo paired up, with two other partners(one
locked down), and the other who is also an
artist on the label, Mikey Battlez. Soonafter
Skullz and Mikey Battlez were sitting in label offices and recording studios throughout Atlanta, and Los Angeles. Universal record execs
were impressed with Skullz, they were all ears
about an imprint deal. Undaaworld/Skullzangels released "Lock Your Doorz" ATL mixtape cd independantly
with their own funding, and sold over 175,000
copies.
2003, Skullz and Mikey Battlez were pursued by Grammy platinum producer Sheke''spere." I had to work the streets, always in the studio, writing and producing some hot s**t. We put out G-Boy, and got alot of mixtape dj''s feedback. We followed that up with shows both in the states and overseas.
But like many rappers, Skullz road to riches is as far from easy. Traveling back and forth to Panama,NY,Cali and Anchorage, Alaska, his father who was in the military, made promises that were
never kept. Raised by his mother, Skullz and his
siblings moved away from family in NY and
Trinidad, to remote secluded states. Often
finding themselves in homeless shelters and
welfare, it was difficult to grow up as a kid.
Domestic violence was random in his household.
To stay out of trouble, music became Skullz
outlet. As a kid, his mother would throw reggae
parties and he would get the chance to spin
records with the known dj selectors around the
way. Skullz, would often wander off to hang with
the older cats on the block. Those same dudes on
the block, didnt know that Skullz would become
one of the realest n***az alive. " I love my n***az," says Skullz.
In ''96 Skullz was hustling. Traveling to Chicago, North Dakota, Ten-A-Kee, Texas and all
over chopping it up. Skullz ran with gang affiliated members. Desperate for success in
funding himself in music, It wasn''t difficult
to get people to believe in him.
In the''90s Skullz, formely known as Bernie Skullz was heard by M.C Lyte for Duke Da Moon, and was soon in label offices. He also flowed in sessions with Erick Sermon and Def Squad. His previous manager, robbed him of his clothes and cash, leaving Skullz desperate. It was all or nothing for him, so he dropped the Burning moniker from BurningSkullz, and perfected his flow, and delivery, game, and acting skillz.
" I met Mikey in Atlanta and some months later met L.A," Skullz says."S**t was real, my homie got bagged up and did 9 months, and i had a situation catch up with me, that i can''t disclose. My management was ruthless and criminal activities had occured, they tried to have me shot and killed, but it didnt happen."
Skullz would soon record "Rosemary''s Baby." This record would put him at the similarity of
artists like Dmx, Tupac, and Scarface. He would also grace many internet viewers with MP3s, gaining rave reviews from supporters, dj''s and record labels. If you go on the internet it''s
not surprising that they catergorize Skullz with
grammy nominated winners such as Eminem, Nelly, and Kanye West.
Through Skullz black cloud, and difficult upbringing, and his mothers disablilites, hiphop can''t say no to his stories or his voice. He lays it down with Godspeed, and can make you laugh and make you cry. Overall Skullz production and lyrics will have listeners hypnotized.
"Im living this out for my n***az that can''t be here, either dead or locked up,"he says. " I''m thankful for breathing. I am my brothers keeper.
It''s now or never, my moms lost her sight, so i have to be her eyes now. I am the Skullz."
