Steve Austin is an accomplished Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner. His journeys through the gentle art are marked by many significant milestones in a short period of time. Most recently, World Championships in the GI (Master & Senior) and NO-GI (Adult and Master & Senior) show him to be at once a competent competitor, as do his exploits training students and adapting techniques to be easily assimilated show his knowledge of the gentle art to be far beyond his years.
Steve Austin the Bioniq MC is also a Louisiana born and bred Dallas-based
rapper known for his undeniably precise, versatile lyrical flow laced atop the
attention-grabbing, body-moving beats and hooks that have become just
two of his trademarks. Standing tall at 6'5½", the toned, stylish Austin is as
readily distinguishable in person as he is on a verse. Austin's smooth
delivery tinged with his unique southern perspective and flow, flawless
production, passion, and relentless energy both on and off the stage
have facilitated his opening for countless renowned artists including
Outkast, Run DMC (1996/2000), DMX, Jay-Z, A Tribe Called Quest, The Roots, David Banner, Chico DeBarge, Bonecrusher, Twista, and Biz Markie, among others.
Also highly regarded as an impeccable professional mastering/recording
engineer, Austin has contributed to solo and collaborative efforts of
K.N.E.S. a/k/a Jelly Johnson, Money Waters, Pikahsso, G.Y.L.O., South Side Boys, Bavu Blakes, Al Lyric, and many more through
his company, Bioniq Labs.
Austin's releases include a series of successful mix tapes (Unleash the
Beast & Let the Monkey Out Vols. I, II & III), and the upcoming album
800
LB. Gorilla (March 2005) in addition to a host of mixtapes and albums
produced by other artists.
"Steve Austin's Bioniq ability may be the uncut, raw, hip-hop you've
been wanting for so long."
- RAP SHEET Magazine
"An immensely energetic performer, the charismatic Austin has the type
of commanding flow to garner respect from the heads, and the type of
bangin' club anthems to heat up the joint and have the freaks flock to the
pole."
- DALLAS OBSERVER
"Steve Austin is one of the fiercest MCs the region has ever produced."
- GROOVELINE Magazine
Steve Austin believes supremely in his ability to bring the noise to the masses. "It is my time to show the world what I can do. When I UNLEASH THE BEAST, when I let the 800 LB. GORILLA loose, you will all bear witness to the most potent force in the hip-hop world for today and for years to come."
