Details:
Reach is as compelling and as atypical an emcee as you''ll find in the Rap genre. He utilizes what he calls blue-collar Rap, a more reality-based personable brand of Hip-Hop, to combat an industry saturated with propaganda. This emcee, by most accounts, is considered to be a throwback to the artform''s golden age. With content as distinctive and as poignant as his he''s aiming to raise the bar and escort the Rap genre back to greatness.
Reach, born Stacy D. Smith, hails from Kansas City, Mo. Five short years after being introduced to Hip-Hop culture in 1986 Reach began writing and reciting rhymes at the tender age of thirteen. His early stylings were heavily influenced by lyrical gunslingers Keith Murray and Kurupt. After nearly a decade of honing and perfecting his craft he helped to form a local independent Rap label, Kingdome Records. Three years and a full-length compilation album later he opted to pursue greener pastures as a solo artist. In 2003, Reach began a blistering campaign to garner exposure through a brief stint on a national tour (Warped Tour ''03), a self-released EP in the summer of 2003, and several cameo appearances with fellow Kansas City cohorts: Ces Cru Militia, Titanium Frame, and Floridian flamethrower Mas Appeal.
Reach released his debut album, Joys, Disappointments & The In-Between., in the Fall of 2004. In 2005 Reach was named the winner of the Scion Next Up contest (a national Rap talent search) sponsored by Toyota Scion. He shot a fully-produced music video in Los Angeles, California (currently running on https://www.tradebit.com The talented songwriter, artist, and producer recently released his sophomore project, Corner Speech, in November 2007. The new album features 12 tracks produced solely by Copenhagen producer Twelve Beats. Reach maintains a busy performance schedule having turned in 31 shows thus far in 2007, including a brief stint on the 2007 Vans Warped Tour. The previous year saw 33 trips to the soundstage. Additionally he''s opened for national acts The Roots, Big Daddy Kane, Kev Brown, Oddisee, Trek Life, Devin The Dude, Abyss (HBO Def Jam Poet), Sound Tribe Sector 9, Kindred The Family Soul, Pharcyde, Jeru The Damaja, Blackalicious, Soulive, and Heiruspecs. Reach is currently promoting his new album, Corner Speech, and setting up regional and national touring opportunities.
