VOLCAN

VOLCAN WAS BORN DANNY VARGAS IN DOMINICAN REPUBLIC COMING INTO THE UNITED STATES IN THE LATE 80'S FALLING INTO THE HANDS OF THE STREETS AT A EARLY AGE. LANDED IN BUSHWICK BROOKLYN WHERE DRUGS AND VIOLENCE WAS AT ITS PEAK. HIS MOTHER WORKED THREE JOBS TO MAINTAIN THE HOUSEHOLD BUT WASNT ENOUGH TO RAISE SEVEN KIDS, HIS OLDEST BROTHER DECIDED TO SELL DRUGS TO KEEP THE FAMILY UP TO PAR. GROWING UP AROUND DRUGS AND VIOLENCE MADE HIM SEE A SIDE OF THE STREETS HE NEVER WITTNESSED. HE WAS SHOT AT NINE YEARS OLD FROM A STRAY BULLET REVOLVING AROUND THE DRUG GAME. LISTENING TO HIP HOP MADE HIM FORGET ABOUT THE CHAOS GOING ON AROUND HIM. HE ADAPTED TO MANY STYLES OF MUSIC INCLUDING MERENGUE, BACHATA, SALSA, HOUSE AND MANY MORE.AFTER BEING SHOT VOLCAN AND HIS FAMILY MOVED TO COOPER PARK HOUSES IN 1991. HE GREW UP AROUND FREESTYLE SESSIONS AND RAP BATTLES IN THE PROJECTS AND FOUND IT AMAZING HOW FAR MUSIC CAN GO. WENT TO ELEMENTARY SCHOOL P.S 110 AND LATER MOVED ON TO JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL 126 WHERE HE DECIDED TO WRITE A FEW RHYMES HIMSELF PRACTICING AT HOME AND GOING TO SCHOOL TO SHOW OFF HIS FLOW. AS TIME WENT BY VOLCAN GOT BETTER AND BETTER, HE LATER STARTED RECORDING HIS OWN MUSIC AT HOME WITH A TWO SMALL RADIOS.HE WOULD GET INSTRUMENTALS FROM FRIENDS AND DJ'S IN THE HOOD, OR HE WOULD GO TO RECORD SHOPS AND STEAL INSTRUMENTAL TAPES AND SINGLES WITH INSTRUMENTALS. HE PLAYED THE BEAT ON ONE RADIO AND RECORD EVERYTHING TOGETHER ON THE OTHER RADIO. AS HE GOT OLDER HE DEVELOPED A VERY UNIQUE STYLE OF RAP. HE WOULD RHYME IN SPANISH BUT HAVE AN ENGLISH FLOW, HE ALSO LEARNED HOW TO RAP VERY QUICKLY. HE CAN ALSO SING OUT HIS OWN HOOKS LIKE NO OTHER.
