Brian Crawford, better known as"B.C." was born on December 20th, in Nashville, Tennessee. In 1984, B.C. relocated with his family to Fairfield, California, a relatively small city between Sacramento-California's capitol city, and the San Francisco Bay Area. B.C.'s arrival to California coincided with the introduction of hip-hop music and culture to the world, and it marked the beginning of his love for and desire to create great hip-hop music.
This hip-hop producer began showcasing his talent at the age of 19 for independent rap artist throughout the Bay Area with aspirations of breaking into the national music scene. In 1997, B.C. caught some light in the music business when AWOL Records discovered him. AWOL, an independent rap label that had recently inked a deal with Virgin/Noo Trybe Records, was on the move and so was B.C. He knew that this would be his opportunity to expand his audience of listeners from Northern California to the national areana. During his tenure with AWOL, B.C. quickly established himself as one of the hottest producers to come out of the Bay Area, working with artist like C-Bo, Killa Tay, Mac Dre and Steady Mobbin, formerly of Master P's No Limit Records, just to name a few. B.C. has also been fortunate to work on albums with platinum-selling producers such as Mike Mosley, Sam Bostic, Femi Ojetunde and Rick Rock, all who have been major influences on his career as a producer.
In 2002, B.C. released a compilation album called "Cali Green." "Cali Green" was released with two objectives: 1) showcase and provide exposure for undiscovered artists in and around Fairfield, Ca and, 2) introduce Northern Cali to the "new" Mobb Sound that the Bay Area is known for. With very little promotion, "Cali Green" sold a few thousand copies and created a buzz for B.C., a now local in demand producer. B.C. continues to work with new artist as well as some established independent artists. It doesn't end there; B.C. is focused on securing a distribution deal and a production deal with a major so he can display his versatility as a producer. Although he is well on his way of adding new flavor to the Bay Area Mobb Sound, he continues to expand his musical forte by producing efforts in Jazz, Pop, and R&B. B.C. has definitely made a contribution to the music industry, but there is still more to come. Be on the lookout for B.C.'s second compilation CD to be released soon.
