In 2003 mid-south rapper Shawn B hit the hip-hop scene with a new sound: a mid-south drawl with thought-provoking lyrics and a confident delivery. “This man’s flow is ridiculous. Bobby Creek better watch out! Shawn B is on the map and In da Building” – Shade 45 and MTV TRL host D.J. Cipher Sounds While pulling enormous crowds for his live shows, Shawn B capitalizes on his ability to craft energetic, soulful and sexy songs so appealing you shouldn’t let your girlfriend listen alone. The vivacious performer has a way of getting the crowd involved with his high energy and always finds a way to leave the crowd begging for more. Shawn B is currently working on his fourth mixtape and his second album; both of which are expected hit stores in 2007. In 2007 Shawn B will take his lyrical wordplay to a higher plateau; something that electrifies fans while leaving other MCs speechless! Shawn B has relished his role as the underdog in the overcrowded Louisville market – constantly refusing to sell out his identity to get instant fame. “Listeners don’t deserve to hear the same story in different words,” he proclaims – referring to the money game that has overtaken the music industry. Citing artists such as Public Enemy and Nas among others as his influences, Shawn B aspires to create music that identifies the culture and values of a generation. After distributing over 20,000 copies of his first three mixtapes and his first album; national DJ Pool, TJ’s DJ’s requested and received his song “Last Call” for the DJ Pool in Early 2006.

Hi World in case you were wondering what has happened to me...probably not right? ;) Anyways I am now a proud daddy to twin boys, Hunter and Zane. Their mother has not been in their lives since May of 2007 she chose the almight white powder over them so I have taken the full time responsibility of raising them as well as trying to balance my career, not music, but the one that pays my bills. Time has now become more scarce than ever so my music has had to come second to their well being however they are now getting to the age where they are a little more self reliant, 2 to be exact. I am still unable to get on the road like the past however I do now have some time in the evenings to focus on the music. So keep an eye out for the new project "Dirty Slap In The Face"
