I RICODADON is about to release my debut album in 2009,much to the excitement of my already large number of fans.................. With the album expected to be a success and fame imminent, the exciting,versatile sound that I has made my own is certain to gain interest from across the world. The development of my unique style is the result of a lifetime of musical influence. Growing up in a talented musical family meant that I was always surrounded by different forms of music.My mom loves various bands, and my parents exposed me to a wealth of music as a child, all of which influenced my development. My first foray into loving music came when I 1st heard [SLICK RICK] hey young girl at the age of 8 years old. Later I began listening 2 all genre of music, which I continued with for years before finally at the age of 18,i decided rap is my life a decision which I never looked back on. MY musical journey begin in PRINCE GEORGES COUNTY MARYLAND however. Born in CALI,it was here that I developed my love 4 the west coast as in musical tastes and interests, and it wasn’t long after picking up a microphone that I was experimenting with the keyboard then drum machine known as the BOSS DR-5,followed by listening and to watching all the ppl which had a profound influence on the direction my musical journey has taken. After realising that making music was my main goal,I began to showcase my talent in various venues across Maryland playing at numerous gigs and making sure that my name and music were being heard by as many people as possible.I was quickly noted for the unique style that I brought to the hip hop and rap scene, and my popularity began to grow. As my confidence grew and my style developed, I soon saw a loyal following begin to grow and I became a popular local hit around the maryland music scene. My talent with a variety of musical instruments only added to my appeal, and my unique down south story telling sound with a twist started to find an appreciative audience. But although my name was continuing to grow in WASH D.C.,It is not here that i am destined to become a star. Here my musical ambitions continued to grow,aided by the sounds of dr.dre,2pac,snoop,mc eiht,nas,jay z, biggie that i found me listening 2 all the time.Although hip hop music is where my roots lie, and there was plenty of room for me that is not to say that I find myself in love wit my music genre lol.In fact my influences are vast, which my CD collection demonstrates, providing literally a room full of music from every corner of the globe. I am quick to point out that everything i listen to directs my musical development in some way. However, I would certainly include snoop dogg,dr.dre,2pac,slick rick,mc eiht,jayz and nas as amongst my biggest influences. Finally, after honing my unique sound over recent years,I am now preparing to release my debut album,[MY WORLD MY WAY], which underlies the changes that i went and gone through over recent years. The biggest of these was the ‘switch’ from CALI to D.C,which has allowed me to develop as a person, and has in turn profoundly aided my musical development. The songs i write provide a combination of my exciting street life and mellow vocals,over banging beats with a rhythmic undercurrent that bears testament to my story telling, and punctuated throughout with elements of hip-hop,and R&B. Other changes that have affected and influenced my song-writing over recent years have been my development of political writing, an area that I pays a lot of attention to and incorporates to a certain degree in my music, employing sound bites of news reports to add an extra dimension to some of my songs. And as if that wasn’t enough,I have taken it upon myself to take up an entirely different, though chill satisfying, hobby of reading books.The satisfaction I get from indulging in his many passions has led to a wonderful mind on tracks, although fans are not always happy by the words i display all the time they still show love and support.....so thanks 2 all my fans....RICODADON...
