“Crime at It’s Best”



Every once in a while, there comes along an artist who has so much substance and knowledge that they effectively change the norm. The words they speak and the stories they tell do something to our minds and hearts that allow us to recognize their realness and credibility so much that imposters take cover. Besides aiming to inspire, motivate, and reach, all those who come into contact with their craft, there is also a genuine bond born. In an industry where many claim the true essence of its origin is dead, Crime is determined to bring Hip-Hop back to life.



“Hip Hop, for lack of a better analogy, is in a rebuilding phase,” claims Crime. “I think some artist have wavered from the true concept and culture. While music is supposed to make you dance and have a good time, it’s still supposed to tell a story. A story that causes relation and thought between the listener and the artist.”



Showing his experiences through his hard-hitting beats and gruff voice, Crime is an open book for those who choose to consume him. Hailing from Detroit, Michigan, one of the most recognizable cities for having a Rap and Hip Hop origin and influence, Crime is an artist with more than just rhymes to spew. Through real life portrayals of living in a place with a high crime rate, murders, violence, and drug disputes, he weaves stories that reflect his rise above the ashes. While he does not glorify his past, he does shoot from the hip one lyric at a time and consistently shows why his story is worth the listen.



“Detroit is a place that makes you hard and really teaches you only the strongest survive,” starts Crime. “We don’t play games out here so why would I talk about things that can be acquainted with bubble gum rap.”



With a commanding presence that immediately attracts your attention and a distinctive sound that differentiates him from being comparable to today’s supposed competition, there’s no questioning why he’s here to lead and make a difference. Inspired by real Hip-Hop Pioneers his lyrics are compiled of issues that revolve around his life, perspectives, ambitions, and ups and downs, this original sound relates to more than just the ear. In fact it stands alone and on its own in an industry that is as predictable as it is black and white.



Through the release of his new album “Streets Contagious,” which already boasts a number of well-recognized artists, Crime is preparing to back up his talent through a well-placed music auxiliary. Stand out joints include “What's Life," featuring Dolla and Ray J, which depicts a no holds barrel account of life on the streets, while "Thug Music" with Jim Jones and Freeway shows Crimes ability to hold his own with two of the industry’s seasoned rappers. Jackie-O, Hell Rell, and Harvey Lee also make not worthy appearances.



As 2009 continues to move forward, expect a rise in Crime and new reasons for why Crime pays.
