WHERE CAN I START WITH BEAN. FIRST OFF, THIS AIN'T NO STUDIO GANGSTER, AND HE DEFENITELY DOESN'T COME WITH ANY FRILLS, GIMMICKS OR SUGAR COATING. THIS MAN IS STRICTLY UNCUT, AND SO IS HIS MUSIC FOR THAT MATTER.
BORN AND RAISED IN THE "FIREHOUSE DISTRICT" OF RIVIERA BEACH FLORIDA AKA THE RAW, NOTORIOUS FOR IT'S HIGHER THAN AVERAGE MURDER RATES AND DRUG TRAFFICKING, DREAMS ARE JUST THAT, AND OPPORTUNITIES ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN. THROUGHOUT HIS HIGH SCHOOL YEARS, BEAN WAS ACTIVE ON THE BASKETBALL TEAM, A STAR PLAYER IN FACT, HAVING COACHES HOLD HIGH EXPECTATIONS OF A HOOP STAR ON THIER HANDS, AND A FULL COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIP IN HIS GRASP. HOWEVER THAT DREAM QUICKLY FADED ONE NIGHT WHEN THE SOUND OF GUN SHOTS RANG OUT, LEAVING BEAN WITH INJURIES RENDERING HIM UNABLE TO WALK. "AN ALL STATE BALLER, THE STREETS FUCKED MY PLANS UP, PUT MY HOOP DREAMS TO SLEEP, N WOKE THE DOPE MAN UP". OPTION #2, DOPE MAN. I DONT' THINK WE NEED TO GET INTO THE NITTY GRITTY DETAILS OF THIS, CAUSE IF YOU LISTEN TO ANY OF THE TRACKS ON EITHER OF HIS ALBUMS, IT'LL PAINT A VIVID PICTURE FOR YOU.
THIS IS WHERE BEAN WAS INTRODUCED TO MUSIC. AND SO HE DECIDED IT WAS TIME TO TRY AND TURN HIS LIFE AROUND, AND FOCUS ON HIS TALENT WITH WORDPLAY. THROUGH THIS, BEAN IS QUICKLY MAKING A NAME FOR HIMSELF PAST THE CORNER AND OUT OF HIS HOOD. "IM JUST TRYNA GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT. THEY WANA HEAR THAT REAL SHIT. THEY WANA HEAR WHATS REALLY GOIN ON OUT THERE". AND HE'S RIGHT, THE BUZZ IS THERE, AND PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO GRAVITATE TOWARDS THE REAL.
HIS DEBUT ALBUM "STREET KNOWLEDGE" RELEASED IN 2007, DONED HITS SUCH AS "IN THE WATER" AND "BLEED" , WHICH GAVE THE STREETS A TASTE OF WHAT WAS TO BE EXPECTED FROM UNCUT ENT., HIS INDEPENDENT LABEL ESTABLISHED THAT SAME YEAR. SINCE THEN, OTHER ARTISTS HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE ROSTER, INCLUDING KENT-BO, CHANK CHEDDA, MS. NIKA, KA'SPER, D'REDD AND BIRDIE, ALL OF WHOM POSSESS THIER OWN TALENTS IN THE ART OF MUSIC. "WE JUST GETN READY TO TAKE EVERYTHING OVER. THIS IS UNCUT E.N.T. BABY!". SPREADING ITS WINGS FURTHER IN THE SUMMER OF 2008 BROUGHT ABOUT UNCUT RECORDING STUDIO, AND APPEARANCES AT LOCAL NIGHTCLUBS IN RIVIERA BEACH AND MIAMI, EXPANDING THE FAN BASE AND ADDING MORE NOTCHES TO THE BELT. NOW, FLASH-FORWARDING TO FALL 2008, COMES THE RELEASE OF HIS FOLLOW-UP ALBUM "THE REAL AMERICAN GANGSTER". CONSISTING OF NOTHING BUT HARD-HITTING TRACKS THAT ANY REAL STREET RUNNER, HUSTLA AND GANGSTER CAN APPRECIATE AND VYBE WITH, ITS ONLY OBVIOUS BEAN IS KEEPING IT JUST THAT, UNCUT!
WITH NUMEROUS OTHER PROJECTS ON THE GO, INCLUDING ANOTHER ALBUM, A MIXTAPE, A COMPILATION MIXTAPE WITH HIS UNCUT FAMILY MEMBERS, AND AN INDEPENDENT LABEL THAT IS OVERFLOWING WITH TALENT, THIS MAN, THIS MOVEMENT FOR THAT MATTER, COULDN'T EVEN BE STOPPED BY SUPERMAN HIMSELF!
